Never again. Worst antisemitism comes from Zionists says Australian Jew

I am Jewish, and the antisemitism I experience comes from Zionists and far-right supporters of Zionism because of my outspoken opposition to the actions of the Israeli state.

Treanor's saying the quiet bit aloud — that opposing a state's conduct and being Jewish are not the same conversation, and conflating them serves the conflators, not the Jews. The loudest voices weaponise the word until it can't do the work it was built for. Call everything antisemitism and eventually nothing is.
