So any criticism of the State of Israel is anti-Semitism? This on a website that regularly criticizes the actions of our own state. I would also remind you that although Israel is a Jewish state it is most definitely a secular one. This knee-jerk defense of every action that the State of Israel takes is not helpful in building up support. Despite its vast superiority over its neighboring Arab states, Israel is not perfect and should be open to legitimate criticism.

Criticism of the state is fine. But the article is from a pro-Hamas site and has no credibility.

Not all criticism of the state is equal. When the Left criticizes the state, it is wise to view it with suspicion. There is plenty if criticism of the state from the Left (e.g., on NPR), and it is kooky.

When the Left criticizes Israel, it is motivated by a hatred against Israel and against God.
