“The resolution suggests that all anti-Zionism—it states—is antisemitism. That’s either intellectually disingenuous or just factually wrong,” said New York Representative Jerry Nadler, who voted present. “The authors if they were at all familiar with Jewish history & culture should know about Jewish anti-Zionism that was and is expressly not antisemitic. This resolution ignores the fact that even today, certain Orthodox Hasidic Jewish communities … have held views that are at odds with the modern Zionist conception.”

    If you’re anti-zionist in 2023, you’re calling for the destruction or deportation of 40% of the jews on this planet.

    Failure to support one ethnic cleansing does not mean that you support another. It is possible to support no ethnic cleansing.

      I’m sure that’s possible, but it seems like no demonstrations are asking for that.
