I am deeply sorry for that and apologize to the forum.
I am a critic of what I believe to be poor policy as it relates to average Palestinians by the Israeli government, and have been very critical of what I believe are excesses committed by the IDF in Gaza. I am not however, an antisemite.
Thank you Blankall for pointing out my error and allowing me to set the record straight.

I accept that you didnt mean to do that intentionally, but for me this illustrates the slippery slope between criticism of Israel and anti-semitism.
Although I certainly accept that much criticism of israel is not anti-semitic it certainly isn't hard to slide down that slope.
