I know (hope) this is just a funny quip. But Israel the country doesn't represent the will of all Semitic people (should be fairly obvious) nor all Jews (should still be fairly obvious but for some reason isn't).

Israel blows fucking ass all over town and at this point I'm pretty happy to get on board and state that it absolutely does not have "a right to exist" in its current form.

That's probably objectively speaking an antisimetic statement according to even tame definitions, not just the insane Israeli definitions. But for my money, I'm not an anti-Semite and I think Israel is probably doing more harm to Jewish people globally than any other single entity

If you read the follow-up I had with another commenter, you'll see that that was my point extremely.

You could even argue that the Israeli state is the most anti semitic entirely in the world as the have killed the most semitic people in the last couple of years.
