Netanyahu pillories the Australian gov, one of the most pro #Israel, outside of the US and EU.
By claiming that "anti-Israel is #antisemitism" Netanyahu is WILLFULLY encouraging more attacks on Jews all over the world.
In fact, collapsing #Israel and Zionism with Judaism is the real antisemitism.

This weekend, we marched once again in solidarity with the Palestinian people.
We sent a message to our government: if you knowingly supply weapons to a government whose leader is wanted for war crimes, the long arm of international law will extend to you too.

Nations who are signatories to the ICC do not get to ‘pick and choose’ which arrest warrants they deem appropriate or not. This is a fundamental rejection of the justice system, which does not absolve the guilty, but merely add that nation’s corrupt ‘leaders’ to its ranks.

“Post covid” is a strictly ideological term, like post-Marxist or post-Zionist, that does not describe anything in the observable world, but is used to position the speaker as having accepted the terrain and limits of bourgeois discourse

My op-ed for The Hill on the Antisemitism Awareness Act. There are many horrible things about the proposed act: it would silence Palestinians; it wld violate academic freedom & 1st Amend. It wld also ban the teaching of huge swaths of left-wing Jewish history

The Antisemitism Awareness Act bars the teaching of modern Jewish history
Congress has no business defining what it means to be Jewish.

There are no official U.S. government definitions for racism, sexism, Islamophobia, or other discriminationatory activities, but Senate leader Chuck Schumer is introducing legislation that would define antisemitism to include opposition to Zionism and certain kinds of criticism of Israeli policies.

BlueSky has already started censoring criticism of Israel.
Israel is literally committing genocide. To label criticism of that ‘intolerance’ is obviously absurd — and a mechanism of suppressing opposition to, and therefore emboldening, that genocide.
