Modern Israel is not Judaism! It's not the same theocracy described in the old testament. It's not even religiously pure, there's a sizeable Christian and Muslim population. It's perfectly valid to respect Jews and and their beliefs, and to criticize Netanyahu's government for attempting to crush Palestine and kill its civilians indiscriminately in raids. Jewish folks in the US and abroad are joining in the protests to stop the war - this isn't about being antisemitic, this is telling a very atrocious government to stop behaving as a similarly atrocious government did 80 years ago
