1. Weaponization of antisemitism

    This page is subject to the extended confirmed restriction related to the Arab-Israeli conflict. The exploitation of accusations of antisemitism, especially to counter anti-Zionism and criticism of Israel, may be described as weaponization of antisemitism, politicization of antisemitism, instrumentalization of antisemitism, or playing the antisemitism card. Accusations of antisemitism made in bad faith against Israel's critics have been described as a form of smear tactics. Some writers have compared them to "playing the race card". The charge of weaponization has been raised in the context of the Arab–Israeli conflict, in various organizations' adoptions of the controversial working definition of antisemitism, and in the controversy surrounding antisemitism in the British Labour Party. Critics have argued that the charge of weaponization itself amounts to an antisemitic ad hominem attack, deflects from antisemitism, and protects antisemites. Wikipedia
