'All Criticism of Israel Is Not Inherently Anti-Semitic': An Open Letter From Jewish Writers
m.thewire.in
'We find this rhetorical tactic antithetical to Jewish values, which teach us to repair the world, question authority, and champion the oppressed over the oppressor.'

We reject antisemitism in all its forms, including when it masquerades as criticism of Zionism or Israel’s policies. We also recognise that, as journalist Peter Beinart wrote in 2019, “Anti-Zionism is not inherently antisemitic—and claiming it is uses Jewish suffering to erase Palestinian experience.”

      So they have to bomb hospitals and refugee camps, or the terrorists win?

      It wasn’t a viable excuse after 9/11, it’s not a viable excuse after 10/7 either.

      There is no easy answer, especially not one involving indiscriminate killing of civilians. From the IDF or Hamas.
