Israelis have been impacted by Palestinian terrorism. Many of us are victims, survivors, or friends/family/relatives of those who have died because of Palestinian terrorism.
Jews around the world have been impacted. From Argentina, to Munich, to Cyprus, France, etc.
1/
Jews everywhere have suffered all forms of antisemitism due to the I/P conflict, throughout the decades.
There is a connective tissue dating back to the establishment of Israel to persecution of MENA, Ethiopian, and Soviet Jews, suffering for Jewish self determination.
2/
Not once have we said that all this suffering is justification for blatant anti-Muslim hatred, or anti-Palestinian bigotry.
But for some reason, there is a growing sentiment among lefty circles that antisemitism is not only forgivable, but requires understanding & sheltering.
3/
We are not talking about Palestinians expressing hate for Israeli policies. We are not talking about Palestinians hating the Israeli government or the IDF.
We are talking violent, vile, and reprehensible antisemitism towards all Jews, not different from nazi-like Jew hate.
4/
This is a turning point that has been at a boiling point, mostly noticeable in Europe, and politically, in the UK.
It has led to dire consequences for Jewish lives.
Antisemitism has no room in civil society. Never has never will.
5/ END.
