However not in the least surprised. I will say that both this poster is at it and there have been a couple bits of anti-Semitism I have seen on this thread that I did not buy should have called out. E.g. someone likened Israel to Nazis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trogdor Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 (edited) Pretty sure someone was banned for antisemitism on this thread or the other thread.

Jeff Venom Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 How tf is it that difficult in 2023 to distinguish between: Criticism of Israel gov, particularly Netanyahu and his extreme cronies like Smotrich =/= anti-Semitism or anti-zionism. Support for Palestinians right to exist and it not be in a glorified prison in Gaza =/= pro-Hamas or pro-violence. Mon tae f**k. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, the widely accepted IHRA definition and examples Quote Manifestations might include the targeting of the state of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivity. However, criticism of Israel similar to that leveled against any other country cannot be regarded as antisemitic. Antisemitism frequently charges Jews with conspiring to harm humanity, and it is often used to blame Jews for “why things go wrong.” It is expressed in speech, writing, visual forms and action, and employs sinister stereotypes and negative character traits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partly with you here, I've dialled back from definitely Israel to something doesn't add up here, I don't know why Israel are pushing fake video evidence surrounding it and a faked recording. It might only be a silly little website but few posts deleted or edited on twitter right when it happened too. Their other excuse of 'oh our bombs are much more barbaric than this' doesn't really wash either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baddiel's lack of self awareness with that one is rather hilarious. I have no doubt that if Baddiel lived in Israel he would be ripping the pish out the current Israeli government. As it is he's defending actions he simply wouldn't accept if the Tories were doing them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point except Israel claims to be a Western style democracy aspiring to be just like us whereas these other countries don't give a shit what anyone thinks. Guess Israel doesn't care either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
