There are "vocal" others who accuse us of antisemitism for merely pointing out that our support for the Israeli people does NOT automatically equate to the same unquestioned support for Netanyahu and his policies. For some, that even extends to excoriating us when we bring up the preemptive warnings these women Israeli soldiers gave before October 7.
