`    ===EUMC definition=== From the European Forum on Antisemitism: According to the EUMC Antisemitism is defined as  Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of antisemitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities.”  In addition, such manifestations could also target the state of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivity. Antisemitism frequently charges Jews with conspiring to harm humanity, and it is often used to blame Jews for “why things go wrong.” It is expressed in speech, writing, visual forms and action, and employs sinister stereotypes and negative character traits.  :*Calling for, aiding, or justifying the killing or harming of Jews in the name of a radical ideology or an extremist view of religion.  :*Making mendacious, dehumanizing, demonizing, or stereotypical allegations about Jews as such or the power of Jews as collective — such as, especially but not exclusively, the myth about a world Jewish conspiracy or of Jews controlling the media, economy, government or other societal institutions.  :*Accusing Jews as a people of being responsible for real or imagined wrongdoing committed by a single Jewish person or group, or even for acts committed by non-Jews.  :*Denying the fact, scope, mechanisms (e.g. gas chambers) or intentionality of the genocide of the Jewish people at the hands of National Socialist Germany and its supporters and accomplices during World War II (the Holocaust).  :*Accusing the Jews as a people, or Israel as a state, of inventing or exaggerating the Holocaust.  Accusing Jewish citizens of being more loyal to Israel, or to the alleged priorities of Jews worldwide, than to the interests of their own nations. Examples of the ways in which antisemitism manifests itself with regard to the State of Israel taking into account the overall context could include:  ::*Denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor.  ::*Applying double standards by requiring of it a behavior not expected or demanded of any other democratic nation.  ::*Using the symbols and images associated with classic antisemitism (e.g., claims of Jews killing Jesus or blood libel) to characterize Israel or Israelis.  ::*Drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.  ::*Holding Jews collectively responsible for actions of the state of Israel.  I do not disagree with the EUMC definition.  With respect to this statement: `` These quotes ``vilify, reject, deny the legitimacy or right to existence of one side of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict``  that is simply untrue.  The Palestinian Arabs right to existence or legitimacy is not mentioned or even implied in these quotes, and I would suggest that you are wearing blinders that do not permit you to see it.  However, the push against Zionism does indeed clearly deny the legitimacy and/or right to existence of the Jewish State by definition.  Anti-Zionism=No Israel.     :: Zionism doesn't speak for all Jews. Israel is not the Jewish State it is the Zionist state. Self determination does not include disadvantaging others in that process. Unfortunately in practise the practical implementation of Israel is racial discrimination. it didn't have to be this way. There could have been a method where by all Jews had a right of emigration to Israel without disadvantaging non-Jews. You have to respect that a lot of people do not like the way Israel is persecuting the Palestinians and implementing apartheid in the occupied territories, including the racist settlements. This is not becuase they don't like Jews, it's because they don't like discrimination.   `
