This meme is quite anisemitic! The comparison to concentration camps is just morally wrong. Critique of the israeli state and the government under the current politicians is absolutly nescessary, but that is no reason to go to an antisemitic place.

How is this antisemitic?

Concentration camps have a history outside ww2, also Jews were not the only ones to be sent to camps lest you forget about the disabled, romani, gays, various slavs, or socialists who were also killed by Nazi Germany

Don't forget the Cubans, the Boers, and the Japanese.

All three were still camps, because more than just the Germans used them.

Hard disagree. Is it intentionally provocative to make their statement in that way? 100 percent. But that isn't anti semitism, anti semitism isn't saying things that may upset Jewish people. It is the belief that Jewish people are less than people.

the belief that Jewish people are less than people.

Which is of course ironic since Israel is treating the Palestinians as less than people…

You keep using that word. I don’t think you know what it means.

Concentration camps existed far before the Nazis used them and exist today (see: Isreal’s treatment of Gaza).

Yeah no. A concentration camp does not need to be a carbon copy of what the Nazi’s did for it to be called one. This is not antisemitism. Israel can be criticized based on policy and military action. It’s an apartheid state anyway. Palestine has a right to exist, it’s ridiculous that these people are considered stateless. It’s shameful that the powers-that-be intend to continue to prop Israel up regardless of the inhumane treatment of those they oppress.
