Bkk Brian Posted December 19, 2024 Posted December 19, 2024 From a Jew living in Ireland for nearly 40 years. A small snippet of his piece that is broad and provides some good insight including wanting politicians in Ireland to properly recognise how difficult life has become for Jews living there. Especially after the extreme and lie filled rant by the Irish President. ‘Anti-Zionism’ has become the new Antisemitism in Ireland In Ireland, my home for almost forty years, (I was born in London where I lived until I was 18) vehement opposition to Israel and Zionism, in particular, has seen demonstrations with expressions that are antisemitic, including the flying of Hamas and PFLP flags and chants that hurl invective at all Jews, not just Israelis. On the campus of University College Dublin, a sign rippling with historical irony read, ‘Zionist-Free Zone’. The term Judenfrei, which it echoes, refers to zones which Reinhard Heydrich, one of the architects of the Final Solution, sought to establish in Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe, by deporting Jews from those areas and murdering them. The students’ union of Trinity College Dublin also declared that Zionists were not welcome on campus. At the height of the stand-off, Jewish students were offered a safe room if they felt they were in danger. https://fathomjournal.org/anti-zionism-has-become-the-new-antisemitism-in-ireland/

It's simply not true. @stevenl You can clear things up by answering one question with either "yes" or "no." You can't add any words or explanation, just a one-word answer. The question is: Does Israel have the right to exist behind secure borders as the homeland of the world's Jews? My answer would be "yes." What's yours?

Bkk Brian Posted December 20, 2024 Posted December 20, 2024 Very sad. Israeli flag taken down at the Embassy in Dublin. Hopefully it can go up once again, when Ireland has a government that is not so viscerally hostile towards Israel and antisemitic.

There are different definitions for 'zionism', i don't care in which box you want to put me. I agree with this statement 'Israel has the right to exist behind secure borders as the homeland of the world's Jews'.

Again, up to you, please stop baiting me. I have stated my opinion.

One was the definition for Zionism and the other was a definition of Zionist , so the results are slightly different because of two different words You agree with both definitions of Zionism/Zionist (they both say the same thing though)) and you are therefore a Zionist ,

Nonsense. That's the 3rd definition in this thread, again a different one.

There is more to it in the link if you click it, that agrees with all the previous stated but then of course you saying its nonsense from one of the most authorative sources available is absolutely in keeping with you.
Bkk Brian Posted December 20, 2024 Posted December 20, 2024 Some of the reasons why Israel closed its embassy, from the Israeli Ambassador. Imagine how the Jewish community there feels when the baying mobs did this to their own Ambassador. "They raised posters against me in demonstrations and called to expel 'the terrorist,'” she said. “There were pictures of me with blood on my face - this was not condemned by the Irish government." https://www.jpost.com/diaspora/article-834228

I agree with this statement 'Israel has the right to exist behind secure borders as the homeland of the world's Jews'. So you must disagree with the Palestinian supporters who chant : "From the River to the sea, Palestine will be free" , because that chant calls for Palestine Country WITHOUT an Israel . So, you have to either support the Zionists or support the Palestinians on that issue
