    If you dont 100% agree with every action of Israel’s government, then you’re their enemy.

    It’s a common thing with far right religious extremists.

        The instant someone makes that accusation, I disengage. I’ve learned the hard way.

        People think that calling someone antisemitic (or anti-Muslim) is a great debate tactic if you’re trying to put your opponent on the defensive and derail the conversation. There’s a major difference between criticizing a government/organization and general bigotry, and they know that perfectly well, but people who want an easy, emotional argument don’t care. They’re not interested in details.
