    Another case of criticizing Israel == anti-Semitism

    This is getting really old.

        Whose parents survived the Holocaust.

        “Never forget.”

        At least there’s some people who properly understood that lesson from our dark history.

          “Funny” has a much broader connotation than what you’re suggesting. In this case it’s funny because the truth doesn’t align with what is expressed by his critics.

          Funny as in it’s a commentary on how so many people equate criticism of Israel to anti-Semitism, like how the person I replied to pointed out. I know it’s dangerous, I know Jews around the world are suffering the repercussions of Israel’s actions and a lot them are speaking up against it.

      Netanyahu has done a lot to help the world see this propaganda game for what it is. Not worth genocide, but it’s a slight silver lining. The “criticism is antisemitism” strategy won’t work forever for Israel.

      Also, I bet you’re a programmer.
