    Yes, I wonder why they could have compared you to mass murderers".

    In a bitter personal attack, Mr Netanyahu said Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) was one of the “great antisemites in modern times.”

    I’ve checked the ICC most wanted list. It’s here: https://www.icc-cpi.int/defendants

    It’s almost all African warlords. Not a big Jewish demographic, if I’m honest. If the leader of Israel can describe the ICC as antisemites, the word literally has no meaning any more.

      At this point, if you don’t support the genocide and forceful taking of land in Gaza, you’re antisemitic.

        I just wanted to say that Palestinians and their Canaanite ancestors are Semites as well. So, if we take the phrase antisemitic literally, then the current Israeli government is also antisemitic.
