The new research, released by the UK-based Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) on Tuesday, found that in the three days following the attack, the absolute number of antisemitic comments on conflict-related YouTube videos increased by 4963% when compared to the previous three days.
Part of this surge can be explained by an increase in the number of videos focusing on Israel and Gaza published on the platform. But the proportion of antisemitic comments had still ballooned by a daily average of 247% after fighting broke out, according to the ISD.

Apparently criticism and verbal/written attack against the country Israel count as antisemitic. This is very dangerous as it lump the state with the religion together, making the state(the government, the politician) virtually untouchable. In a progressive way, the state should NOT represent the religion, and both need to be separated. Netanyahu able to do what he do today because the world allow him to hide behind the word “antisemitic”, the world enable a monster to walk freely because they fear the backlash.
I want to be able to criticise my government for their fuck up without them raising the islamophobe shield to deflect any wrong doing(it has happened and it will happen again). The world need to grow the fuck up before we return to the dark age. Trust me, you don’t want the world to enable Saudi to hide behind the word “Islamophobe” .
