ย @saraleigh5336ย thanks for the insight. so, unless i'm very much mistaken, "antisemitism" is even more of a lousy starting premise than i had previously considered.
coopting the enemy 'word' for purposes of defence is neither novel nor new although the fact that antisemitism has, to all accounts, done a full revolutionary circle in derogatory terms (from a German collective hate offensive to Israeli defenders of 'entitled' hate) is beyond either irony or parody. especially where it is deployed to justify apartheid from the pulpit of unjustified hysteria (in the name of defense).
the world really needs to distinguish certain basics without falling prey to the predators of nuanced detail that turns into irrelevance. anyone supporting the end of Israel (as a state) can ** off. that said, there is a legitimate criticism that can be levelled at Israel: active denial of a fair two-state or equal rights sovereign entity / entities based on a power-holding abuse-blame-victim cycle that consistently points out 'the other' without accepting propotionate responsibility for its own transgressions.
and that there above has in and of itself nothing. i repeat. nothing, to do with hamas, hezbollah, IJ, the pflp, the plo, the PA, the iri, the irgc, intifadahs and so on. all those can be treated seperately and as issues, problens or solutions independent of the central point being made here - Israel, sort it out. including and beginning with yourselves.
talk about confusion...
