According to Israeli media outlets, the ‘International Conference on Combating Antisemitism’ being held in the occupied city of Jerusalem this month – organised by Israel’s Diaspora Affairs Ministry – has invited far-right and conservative figures from across Europe and the West for attendance.
Such figures include Jordan Bardella, the leader of France’s far-right National Rally party, Argentina’s president Javier Milei, MEP Hermann Tertsch from Spain’s far-right Vox party, MEP Charlie Weimers from the far-right Sweden Democrats party, French MEP Marion Maréchal, and MEP Kinga Gál from Hungary’s ruling Fidesz party.
Interesting how they ironically invited the most anti-semitic people to a combating anti-semitism conference. The only reason they’re not publicly expressing it (other than all the Hitler praising they’re doing) is because they have a common enemy, plus Israel has an incredibly far-right apartheid govt.
Also interesting how Americans generally see pro-Palestinians as far-left and everywhere else it’s seen as normal and pro-Israelis are seen as far-right, crazy how polarised a two-party state can make people, zero critical thinking.
Criticism of Israel is not anti-semitism.

What a timeline.
I’m sending this to my parents who still don’t understand why one would not want to be on Israel’s side anymore.The list of those figures has even reportedly caught Israel’s president Isaac Herzog by surprise, with the outlet Haaretz being told by the president’s residence that it was “surprised to hear who the invitees are”, particularly due to the conference focusing on combating anti-semitism.

Oh look. It’s history repeating…

Probably more like “How not to criticise genocide done by Israelis”.
The victim is now the oppressor. What a whacky timeline.
Zionists have always been genocidal aggressors.
It’s anti-semitic to blame jews. Many jews are not zionist and many zionists are not jews.
Zionists are probably the biggest modern cause of antisemitism.

I think this captures the state of the world pretty well. The traditional values, the leaders of the world order as we know it are decaying. Nobody has any idea where things are headed. In the meantime all kind of figures crawl from under their rock to party and grab whatever they can
It is well known that the far-right have always opposed anti-semitism /s
This conference is clearly about “combatting” something else. That they refer to it as “combatting anti-semitism” is just disgusting.
Nah they’re all anti-semites (as seen by all the Nazi sympathising they’ve been doing) but they’re far more Islamophobic, plus all the Israeli lobbying and how incredibly far-right Israel’s current govt. is and the whole 9/11 situation.
Is this a support group type thing? Like anger management groups? “We can be better. We should be better.”
