Judaism is a religion. Anti-semitism is anti-Judaism. It is intolerable to persecute and/or hate any group because of a difference in religious beliefs.

Is anti-semitism the issue in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or is anti-colonialism and protection of Palestinian homeland the concern?

In 1948 a chunk of Palestinian land was taken from Palestinians and given to Jews who were looking for a place to call home.

The continuing genocidal war is supported with funding and weapons by a sect made up of a wealthy minority which continues to misuse the Bible to assert a supremacist right to control the world.

This sect of Christianity has sold Christians the idea of being allies in supporting the seizing of this land as holy land since Jesus is said to have been a part of ancient Israel in that area of the world.

Christianity has misused its religion and its Bible to give itself permission to support colonial seizing of land and to support gross oppression of their neighbours all around the world.

People are holy. The divine lives in us. Genocide is atrocious. War is destructive. This is not of God.

Jesus claimed zero property. The founding couple, Abraham and Sarah, who formed the nation of Ancient Israel set up their home territory with peace and just bargaining.

The founding couple, Abraham and Sarah, lived peacefully among the people who occupied the territories to which they moved.

I struggle to see consistency between the God who guided Abraham and Sarah to live peacefully with their neighbours and the God who ordered genocide to reclaim land.

Which God did Jesus model for us?

Colonialism and supremacy are the core of this conflict. This is not of God, of Judaism, or of Israel. This does not support the healthy forward movement of humanity.

It seems like a racist colonial movement which needs to be abolished as apartheid was abolished in South Africa.
