JD Vance wants us to know that not liking Israel is not antisemitic. He also wants to distinguish opposing a particular Israeli policy from not liking Israel. He's repeating the talking points of people who claim Israelis delight in killing babies and then whine about not being
allowed to criticize Israel when confronted regarding their slanders. I'm only surprised he didn't add "opposing Netanyahu" to the sequence. The things he said are different from each other are in fact different from each other. But it's as "uncurious" as the media he excoriates
to refrain from asking how they are *related* to each other in the current rise of antisemitism on the right, which is the reason Vance wants to make these distinctions in the first place. There is a great deal to notice here. I'll leave aside whom Vance was responding to.
@Imperius__13 You don't understand or don't want to understand what he is doing, and that's fine.
