I wouldn’t expect people who can’t understand that “death to America” doesn’t mean “death to all Americans” to understand this distinction tbh

Yes thank you!! So tired of people claiming supporting Palestine is antisemitic and other people hating on random Jews in the name of Palestine. We criticize the government not the civilians 😌

But your original post said “their government.” Israel is not the government of Jews outside Israel

Yeah that’s what I meant like anti semitism isn’t cool but it’s not racist to criticize them as a government as the actions of the government of Israel are bad but Jewish people don’t represent those actions as they are people

In that specific context I mean in Israel I was essentially saying don’t be hateful to the Jewish people in our out of Israel but it’s okay to criticize the leader of Israel and his actions

I didn’t think you “hated” anyone just wanted to make clear that Jewish people living in America aren’t beholden to a government somewhere else
