The Israeli government continues its systemic oppression of anything and anyone who dares question them.

Honestly they say it so much now that it’s lost all meaning. Harris hasn’t said anything vaguely antisemitic. Hurt feelings? Maybe. Antisemitism? Nah.

That would depend…are we talking poor Semites or wealthy Semites? Dublin Bay Semites, or filthy common Kanturk Semites?
The Israeli Foreign minister should clarify his semite-antics.

No other country would make such ridiculous statements like this. Even if it was true and Harris showed clear hate towards some country, their foreign minister wouldn’t make a statement like this.
Israel has a lot of growing up to do as a Nation which is funny since we were formed around the same time. Maybe the troubles helped Ireland grow up faster.
Well Mr. Saar, that sounds like anti-Irish sentiment to me. We are offended by your comments and demand an apology.
Or maybe Harris could take him to court for false allegations and defamation.. seems to be good precedent for winning it.

There’s a deep irony in Israel accusing us of using loose language for saying that what’s happening in Palestine is genocide when Israel uses the word “antisemitism” to describe anyone who doesn’t agree with them.

Gideon Saar is a racist, apartheid supporting genocidaire.
There is a difference between defence and collective punishment, between war and starving a population, and between democracy and governing people without their consent or say.

Israel is playing a dangerous game here, normalising anti-semitism by presenting all reasonable people who uphold international law as anti-semitic.
Now when Jewish people complain about *actual* far-right anti-semites, nobody will believe them.
It’s a classic “boy who cried ‘wolf'” situation.
We’ve now become numb to the cry of anti-semitism

For feck sake, I’m not a fan of Harris but an anti-Semite nah. Israel is pissed because Ireland also has a special relationship with America same as they do and they are afraid some Americans might wonder why dear old Ireland has such a problem with Israel. Their first president was Irish, they fought the black and tans in the same era as we did and were inspired by the IRA. Israel feels we should be on their side.

Israel =/= The Jewish People
I said it before, if I say Saudi Arabia has very bad human rights violations and they should be condemned for that. At no point am I saying Muslims. I am criticising a government for their policies.
When we say anything about Israel, its about Israel and their policies, not Jewish people.
This tactic is so disgusting to claim that any criticism of them is antisemitism. And at this stage its so overplayed its political white noise.

There’s a lot about this that’s awful. But it really undermines actual anti Semitism. And because of Israel’s aggression and “if you disagree with us your anti Semitic” it’s really tough for actual victims.

Might be a bit of a gobshite but he’s not in the least bit antisemitic. Israel’s foreign minister on the other hand is an accomplished gobshite. Hope that clears it up for everyone.

They are gearing up I’d say to pressure the next US Administration to pull FDI in the country.

Seriously…how did all these Israeli people become the way they are? Why can they not see the war crimes and genocide happening like the rest of the world? I understand theyre brainwashed from a young age but they have eyes and they know right from wrong like the rest of the world. I just don’t understand how the majority of a large group of people can think this way.

Like we’re going to miss Israel, antisemitism is being used these days to shut up anyone who doesn’t agree with what they’re doing. We don’t like counties who hold land that’s not theirs, we don’t like counties who deliberately target civilians, hospitals, hotels, etc, Ireland knows all too well what colonialism is. Can Jews who are against the war be accused of anti semitism also?? There’s plenty of Jews who are against Israel. The US lectures Russia about Ukraine and rightly so but why not Israel??
Antisemitism has lost all meaning these days. It’s being used for political propaganda.
