    Right?? I am anything but antisemitic, but I dislike the way Isreal handles its conflict.

    But media portrays it as such. But not being jewish I don’t know how the issue handles for them in their private life.

      Judaism isn’t a nationality or an ethnicity. It’s a religion. Jewish people don’t have any reason to ‘handle’ what’s happening in Palestine any differently than anyone else UNLESS they’re a fascist.

        Perhaps in the United States.

        However, while being Jewish is a religious identity, it’s also an historical, ethnic, cultural, and experienced identity. e.g: There are many Jewish people who’ve never practiced Judaism that still identify as such to themselves and by their societies, and not just the Euro-American ones.
