There is a lot of antisemitic views these days

A bowl of fruit doesn't really qualify no matter how you spin it. Also criticizing Israel does not mean criticizing all Jewish people. The Jewish faith is getting pulled into politics which really sucks for everyone who is not Israel. The current Israel administration likes to scream antisemitism for every bit of criticism. They are directly fueling antisemitic views.

This is all by design, any criticism whatsoever get equated to anti semitism and the eventual outcome, of course, is that the entire word gets so cheapened that by a year from now nobody will care about it anymore.

It's the typical an of short sighted dictatorial wannabe types

That's their hope. The administrations of some governments are purposely doing moves to embolden terrorism, embolden racism, embolden hate. Then when someone with the wrong skin color does something terrible, they can say, "see? War were declared." Let the wartime profits rain in!

Jewish people are great, the people of Israel seem to be smart and clever, their engineering seems first-class. Their government? Up there with the USA Federal government on the list of terrible things that need to go away.
