Human rights organisation Amnesty International on Tuesday accused Israel of committing a "live-streamed genocide" against Palestinians in Gaza by forcibly displacing most of the population and deliberately creating a humanitarian catastrophe.

In its annual report, Amnesty charged that Israel had acted with "specific intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza, thus committing genocide".

Israel’s foreign ministry rejected the accusations of genocide as "baseless lies" and accused Amnesty International of being a “radical anti-Israel organisation”.

Antisemitism has lost it's meaning. Any time you raise your voice against any kind of powerful people, it's discrimination why?

You can thank Israel for muddying the waters, using antisemitism as a shield so they can commit a live streamed child holocaust on a captive population.

Antisemitism has always been a tool of Israel. The first prime minister was quoted as saying

If I knew that it was possible to save all the children of Germany by transporting them to England, and only half by transferring them to the Land of Israel, I would choose the latter, for before us lies not only the numbers of these children but the historical reckoning of the people of Israel.

Literally pro Holocaust to ensure the success of the Zionist project

More like thank the Western Hegemony for using the Holocaust they committed as an excuse to commit a new genocide.

And using their donors in western universities to quash any dissent as well

The Zionist conflation of anti-zionism and antisemitism is directly responsible for the increase of genuine antisemitism worldwide

Exactly why it's so important to call out that conflation at every opportunity

Antisemitism has lost it’s meaning.

You can go on Twitter and find some ripe fucking comments. The hair brained "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" conspiracy-theory angle of antisemitism is alive and well. It's just got nothing to do with Israelis butchering any Arab or Persian they can get in their crosshairs.

Any time you raise your voice against any kind of powerful people, it’s discrimination why?

Associating Jewishness with Powerfulness is a nut of a lot of the conspiracy theories.

The game is always to conflate "Israelis are being called powerful because they are Jewish" and obscure "Israelis are being called powerful because they have a strong military and the full support of the US national security apparatus."

That is a problem the Zionists introduced tho. By labeling every small criticism against their oppressive and genocidal agenda as "antisemitism", it blurred the lines and the idiot conspiracy theorists on Twitter get roped into the same crowd as someone asking Israel to stop their genocide.
