The parts you quote do not equate criticism of Israel with antisemitism.

Do you not consider calling Israel's existence racist or comparing its actions to the Nazis to be criticism?

Legitimate criticism is about specific actions or behaviors. You could even say that you are opposed to certain laws, like the right of return.

Saying that a nation should just not exist, regardless of how they behave or what laws they have betrays a deeper irrational hatred. Especially if there’s only one state that must not exist, while there are many countries with laws you would disagree with.

Saying that the existence of a state is a racist endeavor is not inherently hateful, and doesn't just apply to Israel.

For example, apartheid South Africa was a racist endeavor.

[throw1936827]

Are you against the existence of South Africa? Or were you against the existence of some laws in South Africa?

It also isn’t racist to be against the existence of states in general and believe in a world without borders. But to say that Ukraine has a right to exist, Ireland has a right to exist, Palestine has a right to exist, Greenland has a right to exist - only Israel does not have a right to exist is antisemitic.

I am against the existence of apartheid South Africa, just as I'm against the existence of apartheid Israel.

No state should discriminate against people based on their religion. (And absolutely no state has a right to exist. People have rights, not governments.)
