This is the explicit and intended end result of the BDS movement and the left's attempt to single out Israel: companies stop taking Jewish clients jta.org/2022/01/11/ny/…
"Anti-Zionism" isn't a thing. If you're just criticizing a state, that's called criticism, and if you support the dismantling and destruction of the Jewish homeland, that's genocidal antisemitism. "Anti-Zionism" stopped being a thing before most of these activists were born.
"Anti-Zionism" doesn't exist. It is merely the term for antisemitism that cowards prefer. Time to grow up.
This is why it should be embarrassing for Jewish groups and figures to make this "distinction." The fact that Jeremy Corbyn knows this but US Jewish writers and activists don't tells you a lot about how we got to this point. You are under no obligation to adopt the lies of others
"Anti-Zionism is not necessarily antisemitism" I say to the gentleman next to me on the firing line.

Prior to statehood, Zionism was about Jewish peoplehood *wherever you stood, physically.* It became truly problematic to Russian leaders when it became clear the Zionists *weren't leaving.*
Indeed, the Russian authorities were upset because ppl who went to Zionist meetings *stayed put,* they just started learning more about Judaism and Hebrew.
Listen carefully: Zionism is as much about a state for the Jews as it is about *the state of the Jews.* Always was.
