I love how deeply concerned GOP congress critters have become about antisemitism. I’m sure their tiki torch carrying constituents will agree wholeheartedly! 😆
They actually are where the push first stated on the right. After all, redefining antisemitism as being anti Israel is great if you’re primarily concerned with getting the Jews out of your country. Besides, it it’s fine that Isreal has citizenship decided on race and religion, isn’t it really antisemitic that we complain about doing the same thing here.
The first two paragraphs sum this up pretty well: "To understand the current headline-dominating furor over the protests taking place on college campuses against the war in Gaza, think about the death toll of each. As of the time of writing, more than thirty-four thousand Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli military in Gaza, almost certainly a massive undercount. On US campuses, that figure is zero.
It’s this cosmically vast discrepancy in terms of “harm” and “safety” that more than anything explains the absurd and ongoing freakout over college students protesting the war on Gaza — one that would be laughable if it weren’t so menacing."
