Comedian Bassem Youssef says antisemitism accusations have become ‘empty accusations’

“You understand that I’m a semite myself, right?”
While speaking to Channel 4 in an interview that was published on Thursday, Egyptian-American comedian Bassem Youssef responded to antisemitism accusations and said such accusations have become “devoid of anything, of meaning”.
He also criticised debates over whether Israel’s actions in Gaza constitute genocide, saying they are time-wasting distractions that allow Israel to kill more Palestinians in Gaza.

    The terms "anti-semite" or "anti-semitic" have always been nonsensical words when applied to the discrimination of "the Joos." Are "the Joos" the ONLY semites on the face of God's green earth? No, they are but ONE of MANY semitic peoples that descended from Shem, Noah's middle son. However, "anti-zionism" or "anti-zionst" are legit terms applied to anyone that opposes the imperialism of the Eastern European AshkeNAZI Joos back in the day.

    There is no "israel". It's not a legitimate "state". It's just a Western colonialist apartheid loving genocidal entity occupying Palestine. The zionists were dumped on Palestine like a plague by a Britain who didn't want them there and apparently couldn't guarantee their safety. The 3000y old laughable "claim" and a dodgy ancient deed they can't even find is no excuse to steal land and homes.

    I don't believe its a genocide, and I've read the genocide convention. Israel has absolutely committed war crimes, but the key reason I don't believe it fits the definition of genocide is because all of the criteria it lists must be "committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group", and the numbers play a big role in why i dont think this part of the definition is fulfilled. If destroying the palestinian ethnic group were israels goal, they'd be able to do this ver effectively. They know where the civilian areas are, I'd expect that if they wanted to theyd have no trouble killing 30,000 in a day. They are however ambivalent about the loss of civilian life, but thats not the same thing. In the battle of mosul, the same number of civilians were killed as in gaza so far, and that was while civilians were able to leave the city. By the end of the battle, there were less than 300k civilians in mosul, meaning that a tenth of the people who stayed were killed. While the syrian government and ISIS's Actuions were certainly evil, it was definitely not a genocide, everyone was the same ethnic group. The syrian government just didnt care enough about the loss of civilian life, the same as israel.

Not just to it's diminished image to the majority of the world, but western counreies will stop supporting it as well, it's a suicide move, kind of similar to nuking gaza, which many say Israel can do, but again would be disastrous to it's PR. And again, i believe we should of course support Israel's war against Hamas, but we shouldn't support Israel's war against Palestinian civilians. Thousands of innocent jews were killed in cold blood by terrorists so Israel does have the right to defend itself, and it also has the right to go after Hamas in gaza, but Israel doesn't have any right to indiscriminately torture and kill Palestinians and flatten Gaza which is what it's doing

    @spacejuice7085 the Pahlange militia was an independent Christian Maronite group that entered Palestinian refugee camps (why are there refugee camps decades after Israel was founded??) and slaughtered thousands to settle a blood feud based on the Lebanese Civil War.

    The facts are indisputable. Palestinians live in an apartheid, colonial-settler state, one that has dispossessed them of their land for some seventy years, has forced them to live in dehumanizing conditions that are worse than an open-air prison (unlike Palestinians, inmates are not periodically bombed), persecutes them for their religious affiliation, devastates them economically, seeks to (and yet has failed to) break them psychologically, interminably terrorizes and periodically massacres them as a policy (some of Israel’s politicians speak of killing Palestinians as ‘mowing the grass’).
