    I’m sorry, this article is anti-semetic.

    Also, does she condemn Hamas?

      Can’t tell if this is a caricature of every Israeli response or an actual hasbara attempt. Either way kudos.

        Zionist propaganda is so absurd it’s really hard to distinguish it from parody.

        Post history indicates they probably just didn’t use the /s switch.

        It was meant to be a caricature.

        Exceeded my expectations.

        It’s subtle but the signs are there.

      This isn’t antisemitism.

      Antisemitism was when a kid stole the book I was reading in high school and drew a swastika on every single page with a sharpie.

      Antisemitism was when I told someone I didn’t celebrate Christmas and they said, “what are you, some kind of Scrooge?” And I said, “no, I’m a Jew.” And they said, “typical Jew.”

      Antisemitism is when I tell someone I’m a Jew and they berate me for supporting Israel when I don’t support Israel.

      That is antisemitism. And if it’s antisemitic to be against Israel, I guess I’m an antisemitic Jew.

          Thanks. I know I’m not alone. Many of us do not support Israel’s genocide.

        I thought my sarcasm was pretty unsubtle.
