The Palestinians are a semitic people... Netanyahu is clearly the most antisemitic person on earth.

“Semetic” is already a pseudo-scientific term. It refers to the descendants of one of the sons of Noah (Shem), which is a mythic rather that historic origin. It has always meant anti-Jew specifically.

All that said, I still agree with you that Benjamin Netanyahu is among the most antisemitic people alive right now.

there are no semitic people, only anti-semitic ones.
