I'm not swallowing anything, I'm aware of the US bill and the role the Israeli govt will have in deciding was is anti semitism. I was merely pointing out the inconsistency. When we get our new hate speech bill here, with anti semitism being a big part of it, all the pro palestine people will no doubt default back to calling anyone who questions it a racist and a bigot. In fact i would put money on it.On the flip side, also pretty illuminating how keen others are to swallow it when it does align. I often wonder lately where all the people on this board traditionally fond of quoting Orwell/1984 have gone, a more pertinent example than the establishment approach to Israel/anti-semitism you'd go a long way to see.
