There is a post on DU now, with over 15 recs, that says ""Jews used to be opposed to genocide."

Many Jews are opposed to what Israel is doing, but for some reason it is acceptable to conflate all Jewish people with the current actions of the state of Israel.

This is a clear example of antisemitism. Please know it and when you see it speak out against it.
