When I condemned the Hamas raid and kidnappings in 2023, I was called a Zionist. When I condemned Israeli genocide killing > 70,000 civilians, I was called anti-Semitic. I still strongly condemn both.
I also condemn the hate crimes against both Jews and Muslims. Many people who call me anti-Semitic are shocked to learn that I visited Dachau and am still moved by it to this day.
