    now to your second point. You continue to show that you are incapable of reading anything I post correctly. I have not and do not label as antisemitic criticism of Israeli actions, of Netanyahu or of the approach Israel has taken to responding to the October 7 attack. I don’t even label use of Hamas propaganda as anti semitic though I think it foolish, ill informed and lacking in intellectual rigour

    what I do call anti semitic is no different from what you call racist when discussing indigenous matters, black lives, Muslim adherents or other minority groups - the use of generalisations and stereotypes to denigrate and target Jews

    and you do that


    the difference between me and you is that i am able to separate out my emotional reaction to others and the facts of a matter. I can have personal liking or dislike of a person and still look at what they do. I can agree with opinions on things - or disagree - and quite separately like or dislike them. I could not have done my job if I let emotion get in the way - and even now my community activity would be hard to do if I allowed emotions to intervene.

    You appear to be unable to do this showing very clearly cognitive bias in action
