To speak in defense the lives of Palestinian refugees is not anti-semitism. While numerous US celebrities and politicians bemoan the loss of life in Israel, which should not be negated, there should also be cries of alarm for the senseless bombings and attacks which take the lives of thousands of Palestinians and residents of Gaza. Chuck Schumer has pro-Palestinian protestors outside of his home arrested. Why? Because they were speaking on behalf of bombing victims? No, because they apparently were critical of the Israeli attacks on helpless women and children.
The automatic and immediate defense of anything Israeli is clearly another form of anti-semitism. News alert: the millions of Arabs in the world are also, by definition, Semites.
Clearly there are Arab terrorists, but there are also Israeli terrorists, and Christian terrorists. Just be careful what you call someone because it may say more about you than them.
