What do you mean "not directly in trouble"? Their bank account will be blocked.

Sorry, what I meant is that they are Italians and as much as the US would like to exercise extraterritoriality, they are safe in Italy

Safe from arrest/execution, you mean? Abu Omar may disagree, but hopefully we won't get that far.

Yes. Especially if the collaboration was done on purpose, not just as a neutral provider (A/I is not one).

Well, they never will be. So that reveals the real intention behind this action, like someone else said: elimination of human rights and political persecution. This has nothing to do with terrorism, since the people doing it are happy to be inflicting terror globally.

Careful now, YC will get added to the terror watch list for being... "statistically lacking in support for dear leader and his current executive actions/~~corruption~~ interests, (subject to change with the wind)"

> These antisemitic conspiracy theories predate Israel being a country. Swapping out Jews for Israeli Jews or Jews that support the existence of Israel in statements doesn't negate the statement being fundamentally rooted in an antisemitic conspiracy theory.

Which part of the above quote is a conspiracy theory? There do in fact exist jews which consider themselves the chosen people, and who want to dominate Palestine Lebanon Iran Syria etc, and who consider themselves superior to others (e.g. saying Palestinians aren't even people), including many in israel's current government.

Indeed, many of their words and actions are evidence for an ongoing international case against israel for genocide. I guess there's a globe-wide conspiracy theory against israel for doing nothing wrong?

Given that proper context, the quote reads to me as defending jews like me against the condemnation that israel regularly rightly receives for its behavior.

Also, please stop doing this:

> Swapping out Jews for Israeli Jews or Jews that support the existence of Israel in statements

When you take a criticism of the behavior of a limited group of people, and try to extrapolate it to all jews based on their identity, you are propagating a common antisemetic trope, and engaging in collective blame spreading, which is hurtful. Jewish people have agency, we don't just do whatever israel tells us to do.

> That doesn't make it much better, so you agree she's clearly targeting Israeli's at least in part due to them being Jewish?

I disagree, I think you're missing her point if you get that impression. That said, she does seem a bit anti-German though.
