You're a Zionist, yet you're not Jewish. So how does that work then?
I am disgusted by what you stand for, in exactly the same way, and for the exact same reasons that I abhor what Netanyahu stands for. Only one of you is Jewish. The target of my opposition is genocidal settler colonialism, not race, not religion. So how can my anti-Zionism equate to antisemitism?

Once again SpaceCowboy, you are talking absolute arse gravy of the lowest calibre.

    I've read history books and I see people saying the same kinds of bullshit antisemitic rationalizations being used today as was used in the past.

    If you were willing to learn history you wouldn't be so prone to repeat the mistakes of the past. Many of us have and we recognize the pattern you're following.

    That's a load of vague finger pointing you're doing there.
    Nothing of any substance at all.

    You're not the first to find alternate way of labeling Jews to make antisemitism palatable. Read a history book FFS, you're following a pattern.
