Jews shut down the New York Stock Exchange to protest Israel. Here’s why | Elena Stein
As the descendant of a survivor of a genocide, the Holocaust, I refuse to be a bystander to another genocide
Careful, per the IHRA definition of antisemitism, when one says:
they might be antisemitic:
This is the definition adopted by the United States.
To clarify, in 2016 they adapted definition, but it was still non-binding.
This year, they are trying to make it official and binding. So far it passed the House, but still needs to pass the Senate and be signed by the president.
US House passes controversial bill that expands definition of anti-Semitism
That's alarming....I did not know the US had even that as part of their antisemitic laws.
They didn't until after this genocide got extremely obvious
When you say laws, does this mean there are penalties for this kind of speech? I was under the impression it just defined the term antisemitism.
More people should know about the JDA definition of antisemitism, it is much clearer, much more sensible and not as self-contradictory as the deeply flawed IHRA definition: https://jerusalemdeclaration.org/
This is certainly better, but it’s unclear to me whether this item:
…implies that denying the legitimacy of the state of Israel is antisemitic. While I would have been in favor of a two state solution in the past, the genocidal mania of the apartheid state has led me to conclude that two states alone is insufficient, even with monetary reparations, and justice after the recent level of atrocity perpetrated by Israel might require granting Palestinians full government control of the land.
Ah! When we go to the questions further down:
Ok, this is a MUCH better definition. Thank you for sharing it.
