A lot of your posts I agree with, but increasingly, perhaps because of passion, you are crossing a dangerous line repeating various stereotypes, dehumanizing language, support of collective punishments, which do fit in with the benchmarks set by the Internation Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. You stated British Jews were sending money to charities in Israel support Israel, and by implication,support of Israel means support of Israeli government policy. You deliberately sought to mislead by selectively quoting a report that showed British Jews, on the whole, do not support Israeli government policy. You consistantly conflate the country of Israel with the government of Israel. I think its not reasonable to associate all charitable contributions with a political stance. I can only judge you by the statements you made, but maybe you make these statements for shock, and for the LOLZ You stated, in reference to the location of the ambulances, and in answer to a question whether a special number is needed to get one: This is a falsehood. There ambulances respond to the 999 system. There is no such thing as a "Jewish area" in Britain. Yes, there might be areas wherre there are higher numbers of Roman Catholics, Presbeterians, Jews etc. But places like Stamford Hill and North Finchley are not "Jewish Communities". These ambulances serve the entire communities where they are based. Golders Green, a tiny area, is 49% Jewishh, North Finchley is about 21%. You are painting a false picture about thse ambulances, implying they are sectarian.

You've described Israeli society as "despicable creatures", and how they want an agree with racist policies. The use of the word "creatures" is dehumanizing. Call them despicable people, fine, but you've associated them with animals. On a 70% turnout, about 23% of the population voted for Likud in 2022. The percentage of the voting electorate that voted for the parties in the coalition is 48%. And within that now minority coalition , not all will share the same policies and views. If they did, they would be in Likud. Given the legislative election, and the complexity of the coalition, I say its not at all clear that "Israel society" (sic) obviously want and agree with these policies. 52% didn't vote for those parties. If referring to a people as "creatures" isn't at least racist then I don't know what is.

A trope that you repeat: https://aseannow.com/topic/1375092-is-israel-a-lunatic-state/#findComment-20133979 In various posts, such as https://aseannow.com/topic/1388751-anti-semitic-incidents-happening-almost-daily-in-ireland/page/2/#findComment-20406396 you imply collective punishment of an entire people, somewhat ambiguously. https://aseannow.com/topic/1387669-anti-zionists-target-jewish-childrens-camps/page/3/#findComment-20385233 Group based framing antisemitism; you uggest Jews were previously shielded from criticism as a group, which really isn't true. In https://aseannow.com/topic/1387669-anti-zionists-target-jewish-childrens-camps/page/2/#findComment-20385176 You state You generalised about Jewish Americans funding wrongdoing, and reinforcing stereotypes about coordinated Jewish influence. https://aseannow.com/topic/1379205-israel-committed-to-ethnically-cleanse/#findComment-20229714 You conflated Jewishness with terrorism. You repeatedly conflate the increase in antisemitism with Israeli government policy, ie trying to frame prejudice against Jews as something that is both a reasonable reaction, but something that is not an independant prejudice. https://aseannow.com/topic/1385082-us-considering-asylum-for-british-jews/page/9/#findComment-20357639 People don't suddenly become anti-semitic, they always were, but new reports embolden them to voice their existing prejudices. You have been previously told you are posting anti-semitic comments. And your response has been the same, such as downplaying it ("clutching at straws") or being challenging, or attempting to redirect. You repeatedly infer that antisemitism is context specific or reactive, when its neither. You repeatedly have said antisemitism is the fault of the Jewish people (ie. its their actions that cause prejudice, bit like blaming an African for being black as the cause of racism). You use rhetoric to compare Israel (jewish people) to Nazis; they are not remotely comparable. Never once have you said you've been misunderstood, or that you didn't put your point across clearly. If you say these statements were in error or poorly phrased by yourself, happy to retract. If you keep to the topics of defending the rights of Palestinian people you will do much better.
