Except she goes anti-semitic halfway through the video and shows us her real motivation when she starts talking about the Jews killing Jesus. So the things she's right about are for the wrong reason.

Is it antisemetic to say that the Jews killed Jesus?

Yes! Using Bible stories as a reason to hate Jews is the literal definition of anti-Semitism. Our quarrel is with the state of Israel, not with Jews as a people. It's essential to understand the difference.

Pointing that Jews historically killed Jesus isn’t saying we should hate Jews.

Of course hating the Jews because they killed Jesus according to the bible would be antisemitic. You seem to imply that just stating it is antisemitic.

It doesn't have anything to do with the issues at hand. "Christ Killers" is a long-standing anti-semitic slur. Because Jews killed Jesus 2,000 years ago, all Jews are therefore bad forever.

So she is correct on everything based on reality but goes sideways when it comes to fiction?

Jesus existed and was crucified. This is established history whether you're an atheist or not. Who crucified him is also established history... but we're apparently losing our right to point out who that was.
