> rampant antisemitism

Both Arabs and the tribes of Israel are Semitic people.

I think you mean anti-Israeli. One can be opposed to the actions and policies of a state without referencing its inhabitants or their religious notions.

No, I think I mean anti-Jew. I don't think they care where the Jew comes from.

Absolutely.

But when those same actions and policies are undertaken by numerous other regimes in the region to a far worse degree and those same actions and policies are not criticized when coming from those other regimes ... one must wonder what motivates those pointing the finger.

The phrase should be "anti Israeli government"

Seriously, few people are critical of people in other countries but many people are properly critical of governments. There are dozens of governments around the world that I disapprove of, but I wish blessings and a good life to the people in those countries.
