"....anyone who criticizes Israel in any shape or form is ipso facto an anti-Semite."

Not true Greg.

Anyone who draws comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis is an antisemite as per the EUMC - now Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA).

Making mendacious, dehumanizing, demonizing, or stereotypical allegations such as Israel being a theocracy or an apartheid state or referring to Gaza as a prison camp etc. This is antisemitism as per the EUMC - now Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA).

Singling out Israel for opprobrium. Just consider the thousands upon thousands of posts about Israel at Mudcat vs. the meager no. of posts concerning the human rights abuses, genocides, occupations etc. going on all over the world. These scarcely merit a few posts until the topic once again returns to Israel. Why is that Greg? I'll tell you why in one word Greg - that word is antisemitism whether you like it or not.
