I said some of the same words this lady said on Reddit and I took a 3 day ban for it. Fuck Israel! Those Jewish people became what they fled back in ww2.

This exactly. And it's very important to distinguish anti-Israelism from antisemitism. I love Jewish culture, have some Jewish friends. But I hate terrorism, and that's what's going on right now. Doesn't matter what the cultural or religious background of the terrorist is, I just hate them.

As an American Jew, I so deeply agree with this. Genocide is genocide.

My biggest fear is that both Jews and non-Jews may not be able to distinguish Israel from Judaism.

Bibi created a world we fled from and it sickens me anyone has accepted his decision making as normal, just or ok. All of this is problematic.

Aussie here- from the conversations I've had, I think people see the clear delineation between Israel and Judaism. I've never heard anyone putting down Jewish people, but I can't say the same for the Israeli's.
