The term antisemitic is really losing all meaning at this point. Which is fucked up.

Antisemitic used to mean people who didn't like jews. Now it means people the jews don't like.

People the Zionists* don't like. Plenty of Christian Evangelicals also using it because they want the end of times to come about.

Extra points earned if you cause a Zionist to rage by mentioning that Arabs are Semites.

The irony is, Palestinians are semite.

There are no Semitic people only Semitic languages. Saying that Arabs are Semitic is a category error.

Netanyahu is antisemitic. You know, for getting 80% of the world to hate Israel.

He's antisemitic in that he deliberately conflates anti-zionism with antisemitism. This is tarring non-zionist jews, thus is antisemitic in and of itself.
