I repeat: Not all Jews are Semites; and not all Semites are Jews. Therefore, it IS meaningless.

As meaningless as "hot dog" I suppose ...

The hot dog you eat may or may not be kosher but it is certainly not dog meat.

Look up Antisemitism

    an·ti-Sem·i·tism (nt-sm-tzm, nt-) n.
  1. Hostility toward or prejudice against Jews or Judaism.
  2. Discrimination against Jews.

Nothing for your palestinians

As I said, not all Semites are Jews; not all Jews are Semites.
