| Is blaming the government of Israel equivalent to blaming the Jews? |
| |
| ▲ | hn993302 42 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | It's not exactly Israel being blamed. The government of Israel doesn't fund or operate AIPAC, and the Adelsons aren't Israeli officials. | |
| ▲ | jswartz 3 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Not always, but often. The poster blaming everything "100%" on Israel tells me that they are not a person of nuance, and people who engage in rigid, black-and-white thinking often have overly simplistic views about how the world works (e.g. Jews control the world). Correlation does not mean causation, but it hints at it. | | |
| ▲ | amdivia 3 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | That's... a very convoluted way of looking at the world. If he stated any other rigid thought, as, "we must exterminate all mosquitos, they are 100% not needed", would you then conclude he's antisemitic too? | |
| ▲ | tgv 3 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Israel means the state of Israel in this case, very clearly. Don't draw the antisemitism card for everything. You must have heard of the boy who cried wolf, surely? | |
| ▲ | SmasherEpilepti 2 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | The majority of criticism of Israel I've seen have nothing to do with Jews or Judaism, but the war crimes by a right-wing militaristic state that engages in constant violent aggression. Outside of extremist Muslim rhetoric, I've seen almost no anti-Jew criticism of Israel, but I've seen many statements like yours that equate criticism of Israel with antisemitism. |

| Whoa. That's not at all what they said and shows you lack intellectual honesty. |

| Rubio said that the US attacked because Israel would have attacked anyway. Take it up with him. |

| Oh yeah, that's why he talked about invading so much during his first term and during his campaign, right? |

| Thank you for your conflation of Israel and "the Jews" where OP made none. It helps demonstrate the fecklessness of your position. |
