    Is this taking action against Israel or against israelis. Would you be fine if your country’s government did something and then people who you dont know were aggressive towards you?

    How does this action help Palestine in any way?

    Greece is the most antisemitic, non muslim majority, country in the world. I am greek btw.

      That’s been my whole life as an American. It’s part of the reason I try to convince my fellow Americans to stop voting for the terrible things we do.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitism_by_country#Antisemitism_rates_by_nation

        Το ADL είναι χαζός οργανισμός, τα νούμερα μπορεί να είναι λάθος, αλλά η σχέση ανάμεσα στα νούμερα νομίζω ότι είναι σχετικά σωστή. Υπόψιν, τα νούμερα είναι από το 2014-2015. Η Ελλάδα πάντα είχε θέμα με τον αντισημιτισμό και από τη άκρα δεξιά και από την άκρα αριστερά.

          The ADL counts opposition to Israel as antisemitism. Any metric based on the IHRA definition is just garbage and propaganda.

          Edit: the ADL is worse than “silly”. They are enablers of antisemitism so long as the antisemites are pro-Israeli. Zero credibility.

          Edit2: you’re quoting a list that lists 93% of Palestinians as antisemites. What a fucking sick joke.

            The percentages are irrelevant, the relation between them is relevant. And Greece is the top, non muslim majority, country. Far above all other European countries.

            Even if ADL is a joke, this should be an indication that things were never good in Greece, in regards to antisemitism. Especially since the data is from 2014-2015, probably near peak doomerism/evil jewish bankers/etc for greeks.

              Does Greece has an anti-Semitism problem? Yes, unequivocally. We also have a much bigger Islamophobia problem. Beyond that, the “rankings” are meaningless.

              In terms of policy, our government is one that straight up kills migrants at sea and allies itself with a genocidal apartheid regime.

              The people taking action here did a good thing. It’s people like this that save Greek honour.
