  • The IHRA working definition cites 11 examples of antisemitism, most of which relate to Israel. According to its clarification: it is antisemitic to deny the Jewish people the right to self-determination, for example by describing Israel as a "racist endeavor" –– one example that can be interpreted quite broadly.

    Yeah, this is bad. The ethno-nationalist apartheid state is a racist endeavor.

    The widespread popularity in Germany of the far-right AfD, parts of which are under state surveillance as suspected "extremist", is a major concern for Lapidot. "At a time when policies and political visions advocated by fascists and Nazis in the 1930s are being revived, portraying antisemitism as imported by Arabs, Palestinians, and Muslims [...]​ is cynical and extremely disturbing."

    The union of trolling and fascism in language is Orwellian.
