We have a number of considered points on Antisemitism and Racism in general:
"She is sharp on the ways that antisemitism differs from
other kinds of racism, and how that can make it difficult
to confront. Our paradigm of racism is so often that it
targets âpeople of colour in order to subjugate, segregate,
colonise, enslave and kill themâ, and we expect it to be
baked into political and social structures in myriad instances
of inequality....
We need to be more confident in separating justified criticism
of Israel from antisemitism".
"The horror of the Holocaust..." tho' is where we go off track,
because the Holocaust was primarily visited upon people some
NAZI didn't like: six million people were killed because
some NAZIs declared them "Jews" to kill them. The real horror
of the Holocaust is it's not the only time it's happened.
