re: #52 Ascher

Nuance is hard to catch on the internet. I have been struck over the past few days by a number of blatantly anti-Israel comments and posts - NONE by yourself, and I have decided not to give any of them a pass anymore. I missed your meaning, and I apologize.

Okay, question: What constitutes a “blatantly anti-Israel” comment, in your opinion?

I’m not looking for a debate or an argument, just a definition. For example, if I use the term anti-American it typically means someone who dislikes America or Americans as a general rule—i.e. someone who is bigoted, not someone with a legitimate gripe (even if I disagree with how legitimate the gripe is).

In another context, it could also mean someone whose behavior indicates they don’t share core American values (freedom of speech, religion, etc. for all Americans).
