At any time throw in "Jew hating" and antisemitism to bolster the argument, it will come either immediately or eventually.
And that is how you make a pro-Israel debate out of anything remotely critical of Israel.
-- Chris Sinnard
No, Jew Hater is thrown at those who hate Jews. You try to disguise it as Anti-Israel, or Anti-Zionism, but its Jews you have a problem with.
Like any country, there's much to criticize about Israel, but you don't engage in legitimate criticism, what you do is paint everything as anti-Israeli is possible.
Rocket attacks are dismissed as homemade, or that not enough Jews have been killed by them.
If any faction of the Mexican government lobbed a missile at the US, all hell would break loose. No country would allow such an attack to go unanswered.
Yet, Israel must (because its Jewish and you think Jews should die.)
Israels bedouin policy is horrible, attacking the American University in Gaza (it has no actual connection to the US) was stupid.
But it's not details such as this you find offensive, instead, you and your brethren want to compare Israel to Nazi Germany, and advance claims of genocide when nothing of the sort has taken place.
What you cannot stand, is Jews having the power to fight back.
