Thanks Pyramid, that is basically why I made my post. I am not sure why Mikey makes the posts he makes, clearly they deserve no defense.
I too have no doubts that Israel could do things differently, but they are not dealing with sane and normal issues. There is no country in the world dealing with Israel's problems. Yet there are many other countries around the world with REAL human rights abuses currently committing murder against their own citizens and neighbors. Yet online we typically just see people bashing Israel and ignoring serious atrocities elsewhere. It certainly is not always antisemitism, yet often it really is. In fact, many of the bashers have no idea what they fell into, which is usually a mammoth antisemitic campaign to bash Israel in our universities.
