Israel's PR has been reprehensible [View all]
What the Netanyahu government has done, over time, is equate any criticism of Bibi as criticism of Israel. And any criticism of the actions of Israel as antisemitic.
I am a Zionist. I believe Israel has a right to exist. But Israel is a nation, not a religion (even though it is a Jewish state). I should be able to criticize the actions of the Government of Israel without being called "ant-Sematic", just as I can criticize the United States government, whether the President is a Republican or a Democrat, without being called "un-American".
