The reason you don't see antisemitism is because you don't want to see it.

On the one hand, you acknowledge that wanting Israel gone & destroyed is antisemitic. OTOH, if it were up to you in 1948 it would've never come into being. On this, you agree with Sayegh. You're both against Israel existing from the start. If you had your way now, Israel wouldn't exist either. It would become just another failed Arab majority state. You and Sayegh practically agree on everything & that's why you cannot acknowledge his antisemitism.
