Antisemitism. I wish it was possible to discuss this rationally. It seems to be suggested that if one opposes the actions of the government of Israel, then one is antisemitic. I can see why suggesting this is convenient for the state of Israel, but why do we put up with it?

Antisemitism. I wish it was possible to discuss this rationally. It seems to be suggested that if one opposes the actions of the government of Israel, then one is antisemitic. I can see why suggesting this is convenient for the state of Israel, but why do we put up with it?
From a news report: "A student at UniversityX walked by protests against the war in Gaza and felt his Jewishness to be attacked." So the protesters are anti-semitic? The only person we are given information about is the student. The only thing we know anything about is the student. What are the protesters saying? Who even knows?
Oh it's not a huge secret what the "protesters" are saying. They are fully supporting what Hamas is doing to the Jews, and fully support destruction of Israel and extermination of its Jewish population. They said so many times, in their own voices. They think murdered Israelis and the hostages deserved it, for being "while colonialists" and the violence against them is "legitimate resistance of the oppressed people". It's not hard to find it out - they are not hiding it at all. And yes, they instituted checkpoints in campuses to deny access to students of Jewish origin, and attacked students of Jewish origin - this is not criticizing Israeli government, none of those students could possibly have anything to do with Israel policies. This is antisemitism, pure and simple, and if with the abundance of information available on it you still pretend to not know it, I think it's legitimate to ask a question - are you really interested or "just asking questions" without any intent to learn the truth?
