‘Anti-Semitic’ – the label that stops criticism

If you indulge in ad hominem attacks (attacking the person rather than
the issue), you can expect the same in return. The issues related to the
anti-Semitic label are many.

First, the expression “anti-Semitic” is a misnomer. It’s defined as
“hating Jews or Judeophobia.” The label “anti-Semitism” is wrong because
not all Jews are Semites and many Arabs are.

In 2004, the US Congress passed the Global Anti-Semitism Review Act.
The Act defines a person as being anti-Semitic for holding any of a
number of beliefs.

My comments follow each of the 14 items supposedly revealing
anti-Semitism.

1) Any assertion, “that the Jewish community controls government, the
media, international business and the financial world”.

According to this, it doesn’t matter whether the assertion is true or
not. Truth is not an issue. Simply making such a statement violates the
Act. In itself, that fact provides strong evidence of control of the US
government.

2) The expression of “Strong anti-Israel sentiment.”

Any criticism of Israel can thus be considered anti-Semitic. Israel
can mangle Gaza and get away with it.

3) Expressing “virulent criticism” of Israel’s leaders, past or
present.
