The ICC, Israel, and antisemitism
The ICC, Israel, and antisemitism
“…Last month, during her Senate confirmation hearing, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield said, “I find the actions and the approach that BDS has taken toward Israel unacceptable. It verges on antisemitism, and it is important that they not be allowed to have a voice at the United Nations, and I intend to work very strongly against that”. The fact that the US Ambassador to the UN is willing to smear people who boycott for Palestinian rights is deeply disconcerting.
In short, Israel and its supporters use the charge of antisemitism as a tactic to deter anyone who dares to hold Israel accountable for its violations of human rights, UN resolutions, and international treaties. These attempts, despite their ferocity, indicate that the Zionist movement and its supporters realize that Israel is a tarnished brand, and that marketing it internationally, within its current specifications, has become impossible; therefore, it must be marketed with intimidation. The United States must end its complicity with this Israeli attempt to devalue real antisemitism in its insidious campaign to equate criticism of its policies with hatred toward Jewish people. ”
