@Norfolkbound22 explains that the Irish obsessive focus on the Jewish state stems from "the Irish's understanding of the political and military actions of an occupier."
And that it's up to Jews to "disentangle" criticism of Israeli govt from "true anti-semiticism". /1

This opinion was in response to this thread in which I collected a few notable events during the 20th century which seem to form a pattern of consistent and unrelenting ill-will towards Jews, wherever they may be. /2

Now let's look the first argument, which has been repeatedly provided by many Irish advocates of Palestinians as an excuse for Irish obsessive focus on the Jewish state:

@AnneOLe43078812 doesn't understand why calling Jews "rat" is textbook antisemitic. It's like she really enjoys twisting the dagger buried in our heart. A proud advocate for Palestinians. Scratch an antiZionist and the inner-Nazi shows up./1

@danosbornens @YaaraSaks @theJagmeetSingh I think 16 year olds are very silly and extremely susceptible to peer pressure and conformity. They shd be forgiven for their stupid opinions. But your apology doesn't sound genuine; if you don't remember, how can you know you meant no harm? /1

@danosbornens @YaaraSaks @theJagmeetSingh Tell us what how you stand TODAY about Israel as the Jewish state, what kind of poisonous "knowledge" about its existence and history you have imbibed, and how are you going to make sure that a Final Solution to its 6M Jews is not what you are promoting./2

@danosbornens

@danosbornens @YaaraSaks @theJagmeetSingh Tell us how you reject blood libels about Israel.
Show us that you understand what antisemitism is.
Prove that you fully understand that when your constituents call for "Free Palestine", they mean no Jews between the river and the sea.
Can you do that? /3
