More than 70 recipients of The Game Awards’ Future Class are calling for a statement to be read at next week’s The Game Awards, on their behalf, in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

Wait, so then I say I’m in favor of a secular, dual-ethnic combined state where Israelis and Palestinians live together in peace under a common democratic government, I’m an anti-Smite?
Correct. Anything other than full-throated support of the current Israeli government is anti-semitic now.
Nope! The state of Israel exists in opposition to that notion. A combined state will likely never happen if it is a continuance of the current state. As what you proposed existed before Britain’s control of Palestine and before the forced creation of the state of Israel in 1948, broadly put. Jews, Muslims, and Christians of all shades lived there simultaneously without conflict. Then US and European powers decided to meddle and create the ethnostate. Hard to walk back from being an ethnostate.
But my question wasn’t about likelihood. I can still favor an outcome that’s unlikely.
I would too, but I’d rather focus on outcomes that have a chance to exist. Cheers.
And as I said: I didn’t ask which outcome is the most likely, I asked whether I’d be an anti-Semite based on that definition. I don’t think I am but that definition makes me sound like I was one.
As I said, I do not believe you to be antisemitic based on that information. That would be absurd.
