''You cannot criticise Israel without being accused of anti semitism.''
Preamble
I have decided to to write an essay on the above subject; derivations of it are often used by antagonists of Israel to diminish Jews' right to their homeland.
The hate - format varies; but broadly manifest enemies of Israel often claim that you cannot criticise Israel without being accused of anti semitism.
Structurally the words may change; but essentially our enemies regularly get away often via this pathetic contrived canard. It is about time that it was debunked and exposed for what it is: a mere derivative of Jew hatred.
Pathetically people who should know better have the idea that being anti - Israel AKA anti - Zionism is not antisemitism.
Worse - claims are often heard that Muslims cannot be anti semites because they too are semites.
LOOK AT THESE LINKS AND BE SILENT!

It is obviously understood that anti - semites or mere Jew - haters to connote a better phrase - are not going to change because they are skewered in essays. My purpose herein is merely to contribute something arguably worthwhile nevertheless.
- Perhaps it will save someone mere time to append my words and links use to advantage or perhaps to critique my efforts. Whatever - I hope that the final / edited version / s will be of value.
- I hope to write a series of essays on major subjects on disparate themes over time. People who have commendable skills should do the same. But too few do.
- Compare with the evil emanating from our more motivated enemies!

''You cannot criticise Israel without being accused of anti semitism.''
So often enemies of Israel regularly claim that
''You cannot criticise Israel without being accused of anti semitism.''
We must have a ready defense against this disingenuous, disreputable tripe. Sadly it still generally disables supporters of Israel who invariably fail to adequately prosecute our people's right to exist in peace. *1
It should please me that years ago the popular 'auto' - parlance*2 even among reputable, ostensively intelligent people who questioned Israel's very right to exist. ####### Nobody ever questioned or questions the existence of so many new ahistorical confections in the Arab Peninsula and how they came to existence mere decades ago. But I digress.
So let us discuss the phrase
''You cannot criticise Israel without being accused of anti semitism.''
It has to be understood that intelligent, brilliant aggression is the way to rebut it. I have lost track of the number of times our community leaders have confronted manifest enemies who so plainly 'criticise' / lacerate Israel. And their response? Sometimes pedantic, ponderous almost pathetic.
Note these words:
'They weakly,typically insist that you can indeed criticise Israel but it has to be 'reasonable' and she must not be held to a standard higher / not expected of other people / countries'. Sigh!
This is sadly utterly inadequate simply because not only is it weak, but our antagonists gleefully ignore it and brutalize the naive with innumerable distortions. Indeed - it is easy to get around the 'standard rejoinder' because it lends itself to mealy - mouthed attacks.*3
And of course the 'criticism' never relates to Israel's brilliant performances in every standard extant - including human rights, science, IT: far too many to even broadly list.
There have been many essays on this that alone mocks the above.
Obviously, our people are 'too nice' *4 - a clumsy phrase - but accurate! When discussing matters of history we insist on being accurate*5 and contextually reasonable. Far too reasonable*6. Indeed - so much so that their pedantic penchant for literal accuracy looses the argument by the very nature of not understanding 'real politic'.*7
The argument to postulate is plainly predicated on the eternal idea that one must impeach and 'attack' the antagonist - whose motivations are indeed suspect.Willfully - blind is an elegant phrase: see below.
And impeaching the enemy / activist can be simple as 'bashing' them with perhaps a few of the below.
Do not accuse me of over - complicating it: some or most may be adequate.
.....needs edit...
- They will not debate anything that can be debunked and thus cannot rationally be 'criticized' / debated.
- Certainly not without far too much historical detail being deliberately distorted. Facts have no interest for them.
- Furthermore, most of their disreputable propaganda is rubbish but they are also going to refuse to restrict themselves to trying to defend said rubbish / claimed facts / figures salient to a dubious cause.
- Simply - challenge them to not keep changing the claims - modifying same when they are caught lying.This is their standard chimera.
- I say to 'them' that by raising this nonsense argument *8 you are demonstrating bad - faith. Demonstrable because no matter how wrong you are - you will never show even elemental understanding of it.Either deliberately or simply the way they are..
- To wit - nothing can be proven to those willfully blind.
- And the best one intellectually *9 is the line: suggest that for something to be claimed - it has to be falsifiable. I guess like climate lunacy? This may be too subtle ....
- Or the classical Yes Minister line which is similar QUOTE TO COME
- Or point out to them that ''I have a criticism of Israel - far too democratic - they should....'' [I guess you can see the tangent.] Drive the person crazy by using fun and drama simultaneously; surely not mutually exclusive!
- There are so many new ahistorical confections.. Sharjah Abu Dhabi... I should write new essay on this alone..
In other words - do everything to throw them off the advantage they seek - of lying and getting away with it as they always seem to do.

In fact, the complete quotation has a much sharper tone: Dr. King took a zero-tolerance approach to anti-Zionism:
One of the young men present happened to make some remark against the Zionists. Dr. King snapped at him and said, "Don't talk like that! When people criticize Zionists, they mean Jews. You're talking anti-Semitism!"
