"Israeli, do you understand what's happening in the US and Europe right now with an explosion of antisemitism? This is beyond tone-deaf. Calling Jews supremacists is a far RW tactic to delegitamize Israel."

You confuse calls from around the world to stop the slaughter of innocent civilians with antisemitism.

Delegitimizing Israel as a Democratic country that tries to get on with its neigbours doesn't need any help, Israel is doing that all by itself.

But you have 2 choices:

1. Israel has no choice but to defend itself very aggressively, and the deaths of civilians in other countries doesn't matter.

2. See the slaughter of innocent civilians as inhumane.
And call for that to stop, without using emotionally laden rhetoric.
