A friend accused me of being Anti-Semitic for my condemnation of Netanyahu and the rightwing parties in Israel

18. That's a tired insult they use since they have no substantive defense for the evil they promote

You did well in that discussion. They simply do not care how many children die. Someone who thinks that way isn't worth your energy.

ETA: the notion that observing someone doesn't care about Palestinian lives is not antisemitic. It's an observation of fact. While there are many Israelis who stand up to genocide, many others have been systematically brainwashed to believe Palestinians aren't human. Many of us have seen video clips of Israelis saying Palestinians don't have a right to live in Gaza or the West Bank, or that their lives don't matter. They accuse children of being terrorists. We see the same views reflected among American right-wingers. I've seen people justifying the starvation of children because 19 years ago 1/3 of the population voted for Hamas. How is that anything but not caring about human life?

Also, this notion that the only genocide in history was a holocaust is false. The Holocaust is the most horrific and severe genocide in recent history, but there were genocides before and after it: Armenia, Rwanda, etc. Pointing that out is a factual observation, not antisemitism.
