It's happening again. There's an outbreak of violence between the Israelis and the Palestinians. And, if you criticize any of Israel's actions in the conflict, the zionist extremists label you "antisemitic".
So no matter how many innocent Palestinians might be killed or maimed, if you speak out against it, you're walking on thin ice.
This is blackmail, and it is not fair.
It reminds me of how the Republicans would label as "un-American" anyone who spoke out against the Iraq war or any of the other misdeeds of the Bush administration.
These people refuse to see that criticizing Israel's actions does not mean that you are prejudiced against the Israelis, or Jews in general, as a people.
Or perhaps they do understand that, but feel they have no other leg to stand on. So they make it personal. After all, it's been said that ad hominem attacks are the last refuge of those defending an untenable position.
And, as long as that kind of thing continues, there can be no lasting peace in the Middle East.
There will never be peace in the Middle East, as long Nations like Iran blindly support the attacks on Israel, and in turn, the Allies of Israel blindly accept their responce.
