The tweet says: "#Israel is a malignant cancerous tumor in the West Asian region that has to be removed and eradicated: it is possible and it will happen."

Do you think that is not as bad as what Trump has said?




They're not wrong that it's different, Israel and Jews are two different things. You can be against Israel without being and antisemite, though I wouldn't guess that's the case here.

Israel is a country, the Jews are a race. The poster claimed it called for the eradication of a race, not a nation.

And it can be argued that if the Israeli nation wasn’t a socialist theocracy, things would be much better there, just as we can say the same for Iran.
