Calling for a ceasefire is "antisemitic" and a call for Jewish genocide, according to Newsweek opinion writer Hen Mazzig. Mazzig, a Zionist LGBTQ+ activist and "former" IDF commander, on Sunday attempted to reframe calls to end the Israel-Gaza war as "deeply antisemitic" demands for Jews to "embrace their own genocide." From Newsweek, "Calling for a Ceasefire Is an Antisemitic Demand That Jews Endorse Our Own Genocide": When dozens of protestors halted traffic on a major Los Angeles highway this week, it was the latest in a string of major public calls for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war. The demonstration, led by the notorious anti-Israel group IfNotNow, followed a vote for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas from 153 countries (the U.S. voted against) during an emergency special session of the United Nations General Assembly. To pretend that this isn't the case not only ignores the reality on the ground but is deeply antisemitic and an outright denial of the Indigenous connection and national rights that Jews have to Israel.Calls for peace are calls for genocide but conducting an ethnic cleansing campaign is not genocide. "From the river to the sea" is a call for genocide and "hate speech is not free speech" but calls for turning Gaza into Auschwitz and Dresden are calls for peace. If you have to completely redefine the meaning of words to make your actions seem reasonable, odds are overwhelming that you're full of s**t.
