Most ignorant people do not understand that criticizing Judaism, criticizing violent Zionism, and criticizing Israel are all distinct. Also, Arabs are the Semitic brethren of Jews. So the term anti-Semitic really encompasses prejudice against Jews and Arabs; you rarely if ever hear this. I heart all the immediate accusations of anti-Semitism.

After hammering the Palestinians mercilessly for 60 years, ethnically cleansing many and confining the rest to ghettos and second-class status, what do Zionists expect? That the Palestinians will only express love and adoration for "Jews"? It is only Zionist political narcissism that can expect this. It makes me sick.
