You are saying that denying the rights of Jews to self determination in their native land is not antisemitic, because Jewish identity is tied into both an ethnicity and a religion, making Jews inherent murderers and thus undeserving of a state. This is as opposed to say the French or German people, whose identity is mostly ethnic, who have a long history of peace, devoid of genocide, murder and disenfranchisement.
- ethbr1 2y agoMaybe you're not saying what you mean. What limits do you place on "self determination", as you define it? And I'd point out that modern France and Germany are much less religious and more religiously diverse than Israel. (Even including Israeli Muslims) But yes, historically states with high religiosity and state-entwined religions tend to be murderous: it's always a good reason for a just war.
