Funny thing:
The idea that protesting the slaughter of Palestinians equals antisemitism requires starting from the position that slaughtering Palestinians is a fundamental part of the Jewish identity.
There's really no alternative way to interpret that. If slaughtering Palestinians is not a fundamental part of the Jewish identity, then protesting such slaughter has nothing to do with Judaism, and thus cannot be antisemitic. It'd be like trying to claim that protesting cars is anti-Amish.
So all these people quoted here are essentially saying that slaughtering Palestinians is not just fundamental to being Jewish, but so deeply and uniquely fundamental - so much a part of Jewishness - that opposing such slaughter automatically equals opposing Jews.
Doesn't that sound sort of... antisemitic?
I’m not sure how hosting an art exhibit commemorating the deaths of people murdered by Hamas on October 7th automatically makes the board members Zionists endorsing the persecution of Palestinians. Perhaps there is some context this article doesn’t touch on
I can't even find any connection between the Boston Museum and that exhibit in Manhattan.
It’s the Brooklyn museum, but yeah I’m not sure if there was one either as I think the exhibit was in Manhattan, not Brooklyn. This is the quality of article I have come to expect from CNN.
