    Anti-Isreal =/= antisemitic.

    Israel’s current actions are that of mass murder and punishment of otherwise innocent humans to the degree that can and should be considered genocide. I find it disgusting - that doesn’t mean I think “The Jews” are to blame. Followers of the Jewish faith and Isrealies are not the same. Putting an Anti-Isreal banner up at a college is absolutely not an anti-semetic attack. The lines are being fair too blurred currently and there should be more distinction.

        Is there literally any person on this earth or in all the nigh infinite cosmos aside from Iran and Hamas itself that has not condemned Hamas and demanded punishment for their leadership to even some degree?

        Also, isn’t the point that Israel is supposed to be oh so much better than those guys? Why is your standard for moral criticism that it’s not fair since Hamas “gets to” do the shit things too‽

        The act is what is wrong, not the actor, and Israel has plenty of blood on its hands even outside of the copious amounts of war criming they are doing, and it is verifiably copious amounts of war criming they are doing.
