what y’all call palestinian “antisemitism” is manufactured by israel. i don’t know how many times this has to be said.
when israel loudly insists it’s the representative of *all jewish people* and enacts violent policies reflecting that, then the palestinians who associate all jewish people with israel do so as a *natural and purposeful* consequence of israeli propaganda
israel insists that antizionism is antisemitism. it insists that it acts on behalf of all jewish people. by and large, the only jewish people that interact with palestinians are settlers or occupation soldiers. this is by design.
even with all this, most palestinians don’t buy into equating jewish people with israel. but those that do, do so not because of a malice against an ethnic group, but a misguided fall into israel’s own propaganda trap.
it’s easier for israel to get away with murdering palestinians if they can point to them & say “they hate us because of who we are” rather than the reality of “they hate us because of what we do”—so the former is exactly the optics they manufacture! don’t get it twisted
