I said above, "And you needn't publicly enumerate your disgust for all atrocities by all peoples in order to denounce the single action of a single people." I'm happy to criticize each other group's wrongdoings; I needn't do so in a single breath. I object to the conflation of anti-zionism with anti-semitism. On a second order, I care about Zionists' crime carrying out ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Palestine. It is an ugly perspective, to me, that we should concern ourselves with the Zionists' ethnic cleansing of Palestinians only after we have solved all other problems. Anyway, check out the three sources. I think you have an interest in the matter.

Most declare that they would, but never will, given the chance. > It is an ugly perspective, to me, that we should concern ourselves with the Zionists' ethnic cleansing of Palestinians only after we have solved all other problems. Meh, I don't even think ethnic cleansing actually applies (not least because Palestinians aren't an ethnic group, they're a cultural group). But even more so: that's not what I said. What I'm saying is that there's a suspicious focus on Israel that turns into willful ignorance and self-imposed blindness when it comes to other things. That heavily suggests it's not actually about what Israel does, but rather about the fact that it's Israel doing it.
