When Holocaust survivors speak out against the war in Gaza, and call it "genocide," [View all]

is that anti-semitic? Just asking for a friend.

Most Americans, because our free press has broken down and our education system is trash, have no idea that the population which now lives in Gaza was already displaced from their land, cities and towns, and their homes, once already in the late 1940's, under the premise that it wasn't their land because the British Empire, who controlled it then, said so. This discussion is for those who know the history. If you aren't familiar with it, do some research and see how Gaza came into existence in the first place.

Then we can talk reasonably, without using labels like "anti-semitic".
