>>...“we do not have the right to project the actions of the criminal leadership of Israel onto all Jews in the broad sense of the word. ...

As someone who in forums was often called antisemitic after making comments about the actions of the Israeli government, I couldn't have said this better. But if supporters of Israel refuse to disambiguate between actions of that country and people of that faith / heritage why should they be surprised that people on the other side would do the same?

Still not an antisemite. Still pissed off at the government of Israel - and at a subset of Israelis, notably 'settlers' - for what they've been doing to the Palestinians.

BTW/FWIW if you're trying to figure out how to help Palestinians (and Lebanese) check out ANERA (American Near East Refugee Aid). I’ve been tracking what they do (and supporting them) since the late 70s.
