I am also sensitive to antisemitism, and share your concerns about some of the content on the posted link. But OP can't control what other people write on that site. Just because some antisemitic people/groups also support an economic boycot of Israel, doesn't imply that anyone who supports a boycott is antisemitic. It's a non-violent means to put pressure on the Israeli government. It doesn't look like they will stop the killing without additional external pressure, so if this helps to add some pressure then I can't do anything but support the boycott.

My concern is that we will let us drag into this conflict by one side and regard the other side as the enemy. This happens very frequently at the moment that people will either sway hard towards pro-Palestine or pro-Israel. I think we should try to be able to differentiate a bit more. The linked video is very partial in this regard. Hence my concern.

Yes, just because some antisemites want the same things doesn't make these things antisemitic. And I agree that some action is necessary to make Israel stop the killing.
