7. you're clearly not paying attention

May 2016

when some say stuff like "the Holocaust was largely a white on white crime,", a university banning a Jewish student over a resolution, murals like this, people like Jeremiah Wright (who thankfully Obama ditched), I could go on. And these examples have little to do with Israel.

And I'm not calling simple criticism of Israeli policies anti-Semitism, but the constant Israel Derangement Syndome, or obsession, IS anti-Semitism.
