Israel is the most anti-Semitic country around isn’t it? Jews world wide have never been so unsafe in a long time and it’s all Israel’s fault.
They’ve even made the word antisemitic lose all meaning by using it against any criticism of the state.
Ah yes, because antisemitism clearly didn't exist before Israel was a country
Also the antisemitism is one of the main reasons Israel exists in the first place
Boy, we sure didn't have to wait long for someone to show up and blame Israel for a French person terrorizing French Jews in Jewish spaces on the anniversary of a French terrorist killing and injuring French Jews. Predictable and tiring, but still pretty disappointing.
I mean like it or not Israel has been working to make people conflate hate for it as a state with antisemitism, and it's working. We have people who think hating Israel is antisemitism and therefore bad, and people who think antisemitism is the same as opposing genocide and therefore good (or are using the opportunity to make their views appear more sympathetic). There's a not insignificant chance this attack was caused or at least encouraged by the attacker conflating Israel and all Jews in the opposite direction. The comment was unnecessary I'll admit that, but the logic checks out.
