    That's what the quell (the salute anelka done) was all about anti Zionism. However it has been taken out of context with it being done outside concentration camps, mosques and synagogues to be used as an attack on specific religion and races.

    In my view Zionism are the people removing black immigrants and asylum seekers from Israel aggressively whereas a Jew is someone who worships Judaism.
    Zionism is unforgiving and unrelenting

    I might be wrong but that's how I see it.

    The same way not all Catholics are in peadophiles rings

    Being called anti-semitic for hating Zionism is the same as being called anti-German for hating Nazism.

    Sounds like something a Zionist would say.

    They are different but there are certainly people who see anti Zionism as a way to cover up their anti semitism. They're usually fairly easy to spot though.

    Some are without a Doubt, Antisemitism has never really gone away in Europe, its just not as accepted after WW2.

    In Europe thhe Jews were always the ones blamed and persecuted when something went wrong, going back to before the Middle Ages, Centuries of Bigotry didn't just disappear because of the Holocaust.

    On the other-hand Supporting Palestine does not make you an anti-Semite, Jews, Israelis, and even Israeli Soldiers have gone to jail while standing up against the policies of the Israeli Government.
