Subject: RE: Corbyns second referendum proposal
A quarter of Israel's population are not Jews. This is one reason among many others why criticism of "Israel" (personally, I prefer to refer to the "Israeli regime") is never antisemitic. Antisemitism is attacking Jews BECAUSE THEY ARE JEWS. I don't criticise the building of an apartheid wall, the discrimination against Palestinians, the ghettoisation of Gaza and the building of illegal settlements because Jews do these things. I criticise those things because they are bloody wrong, whoever does things like that, anywhere. No more, no less. I support all the people of Israel, Jews or not, in their aspirations for peace and security. I despise people who call for the destruction of Israel. Now tell me how I'm antisemitic.
