If you ignore the Hamas massacre that started the war, the 14,000 rockets fired against Israeli towns, 130 hostages now being tortured in Gaza, how can you possibly understand the war? And though you say it’s not in your mandate, you have commented. On February 10, you mocked the statement of President Macron that October 7th constituted the greatest antisemitic massacre of our century. You said the victims were “not killed because of their Judaism,” but rather “in reaction to Israel’s oppression.” https://unwatch.org/germany-france-condemn-uns-francesca-albanese-for-disgraceful-antisemitism/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its generally regarded that denying the Holocaust is being Anti Semitic and also denying the severity of the Holocaust is also Anti-Semitic . So comparing the Nazis to Israel is downplaying the severity of the Holocaust and therefore Anti semetic . If Israel begins to mass exterminate Palestinians across the Arabian World , putting Millions of them in gas chambers , it would be then you could claim that Israel are just like the Nazis without being accused of being anti Semitic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This website is also not there to monitor Israel, it is there to do what it says on the tin. "Participation in events hosted by organizations that have alleged ties to terror groups and that promote BDS (boycott, divestment, and sanctions) campaigns against Israel. Moral failures, as shown in labeling individuals convicted as terrorists as a “human rights defender” in her October 2022 report to the UN Human Rights Council.

You just cannot help yourself and you keep making one anti Semitic remark after another . Saying only Jews would do something is saying that all Jews are different to all other people . Some Jews would think that its anti Semitic and some wouldn't , and the same goes for non Jews. Saying all Jews are different to all others is indeed Anti-Semitic , just stop denying and accept who you are 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to deflect from what someone says by attacking them personally is an old tactic of those with nothing to justify the unjustifiable, but it doesn't work any more.
