Zionist Twitter has gone crazy Criticism of Israel or the IDF is “wanting to kill Jews" Dismantling corporate ties to genocide and war crimes is "calling for genocide of Israelis" Hell someone said I want to put Jewish people in gas chambers today

🧵 Francesca Albanese is, in effect, calling for the destruction of Israel as a state — which inevitably leads to the conclusion that her statement constitutes de facto antisemitism through radical delegitimization and outright anti-Zionism. This is one of the clearest and most extreme expressions of antisemitism in public discourse today, and it can absolutely be interpreted as incitement to genocide. It is important to understand that genocide does not only entail physical annihilation. It also includes the deliberate destruction of the conditions necessary for a people’s existence — such as dismantling their economy, stripping them of sovereignty, and denying their right to self-determination. “Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.” — United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948), Article II(c)
