The results of weaponising antisemitism – absurdity and much more.
JVL Introduction
There is so much ground covered here, not least about how ludicrous the results of weaponising of antisemitism are, that the main thing to encourage readers in this introduction is simply that you take the time to read this. Just one example “…in our world, this is no more counterintuitive than the Jewish faculty member at a small liberal arts college brought up on Title 6 charges for making Jewish students feel “unsafe” due to this faculty member’s criticism of Israel and solidarity with Palestine: the first professor to be openly fired over antisemitism is a Jewish professor, who teaches Jewish studies. ” Another example of what is currently labelled antisemitism is protesting a pro Israel neo Nazi.
The author also looks at the dilemma for Jews who stand against Israel and its actions and how this is also part of being used as a weapon. There is much more rich pickings here and we look forward to your comments.

very moving. Thank you. If it is any help, I am not Jewish, but I feel weaponised too…
Zionists and their enablers have turned the world on it’s head, I feel so sorry for those Jews who are anti Zionists and are not only traumatised by this genocide but also having to live with the Weaponisation of antisemitism. An excellent article.
In UK the engine of the conflation of Anti-Israel and Anti-Zionism with Anti-Semitism is the discredited IHRA definition of Anti-Semitism. It needs to be repudiated root and branch in all public institutions in UK.
We must protect
At all costs
Our friends, the genociders.
Otherwise
Our civilization
Will collapse
Into barbarism.
