  • the Israeli position is better represented than the Palestinian one

    If that's right (and I'm not sure it is) then wouldn't that be reasonable anyway - if the question is whether a statement is antisemitic, then I'd suggest the views of Jews should be given most precedence?

    To put it another way, given you know it is viewed by many Jews as offensive, why not just find another phrase to support Palestinians (which noone is saying you can't or shouldn't do)?

  • If that’s right…

    Israel’s representation in western media has always been more positive and always will be more positive than the Palestinian representation.

    Unrelated to this particular issue, where I happen to agree with your last point.
    However, history tells me to expect that any phrase used in support of Palestinians could and would and has been interpreted as anti-Semitic.
    Support for Palestine and Palestinians always draw this response, and always will.
    As discussed elsewhere, at length, it serves no-one.

  • If that's right

    Like, if you don’t think that Israel has greater reach in the propaganda war (especially in the west) then I’m not sure what can be said.
