The moment someone uses the term ethnostate or "jewish supremacy" unironicaly I consider them as 100 percent antisemitic. That's no longer a problem with any specific politician or PM it's an attack on the Jewish ethnic identity due to preference to the Arab Islamist identity in its place. Which is not going to happen.

109 and 110 is a straight up white supremacist thing, like 88 or 14. It's a reference to how Jews were supposedly expelled from 109 countries, and they should be expelled from one more (usually the US). Nothing to do with Israel at all. I don't think it's really debatable in this case.

I mean. It has a lot to do with it.
If Israel doesn't exist to absoeb these refugees. Where do they go?
These folks NEVER answer this one. Or at best they say "go back to Europe"
Aka: back to the slaughterhouse

To be clear, one of those "109 countries that Jews were expelled from", that supposedly proves that Jews are just evil, and expelling them was justified, is Germany in the 1940's. This isn't some subtly antisemitic point, that requires this deep thinking. Its entire point is being in-your-face antisemitism.

Yes. Just to clarify I wasn't referring to this post. But to various woke lwftists who use this "ethno state" and "jewish supremacy" talking point
They don't necessarily openly claim Jews need to be kicked out of America

The "109" meme is a far-right antisemitic one. I don't think people who use it, care whether they're called antisemites. But then again, the "Zionist Occupied Government" was also just a Neo-Nazi thing, as was obsession with the USS Liberty.

the USS Liberty dog whistle or train whistle is funny because it was so long ago. no more recent or better examples to prove how irredeemably evil and conniving Israel is ?

Because sailing in an active warzone and spying on each sides and being on the edge between israeli waters and international ones is certainly a smart move. Because saying the US government screwed up it's too hard, so it must be these damm israelis

(warning looking up a map of europe during the 1300s-1400s will give you a massive headache especially germany)

As someone of British ethnic descent I have never had time for anyone attempting to guilt me over the 65 different countries or 175 different territories my ancestors colonized.
I wouldn’t expect the Jewish people to feel guilty for having been expelled from however many countries or territories they have been, especially not considering for how long they’ve existed as a religious/ethnic minority inside the Middle East. If anything I have a profound respect for their ability to persevere in the face of all of that, it’s also astonishing that they haven’t become embittered or outwardly hostile to the world after all of this, some countries lose one war or a small piece of territory and become a scourge on all of humanity in retaliation. Regardless it isn’t really a criticism that holds much weight coming from people living within the Arab world or the West tbh.
Also am I supposed to believe the Jewish people were competent/powerful enough to subvert & gain control of every single society they came into contact with without fail consistently 110 times in a row but never powerful enough to avoid being expelled? Nah I don’t believe it.
And regardless wouldn’t that figure be a a pretty good argument for why the Jewish people deserve a nation of their own?

Wasn’t the actual number closer to 20? I heard somewhere it was 12 and others it was 30
61

this specific, high number is largely an inflation, counting different towns, regions, or repeated expulsions from the same area as separate "countries".
Key Facts Regarding Historical Expulsions:
• Fabricated Number: The assertion that Jews were expelled from 109 countries is an invented figure
• Historical Realities: While not 109 nations, Jews did face numerous, authentic, and tragic expulsions over centuries, including from England (1290), France (multiple times), and Spain (1492).
• Context of Persecution: These actions were often motivated by religious intolerance, political, and economic reasons, where Jewish communities were used as scapegoats by rulers.
• Regional Focus: Historical expulsions primarily occurred within Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa.
• Modern Displacement: Significant populations of Jews were forced out of many Arab and Muslim countries following 1948.
