    well..the ADL defines it as....

    Anti-Semitism
    http://www.adl.org/hate-patrol/antisemitism.asp

    if we break this down

    1)The belief or behavior hostile toward Jews just because they are Jewish.

    2) It may take the form of religious teachings that proclaim the inferiority of Jews,

    3) for instance, or political efforts to isolate, oppress, or otherwise injure them.

    4)It may also include prejudiced or stereotyped views about Jews


    so from what i gather from this JEWISH definition of anti-semitic.... is

    1) dont try to kill a jew or paint nazi signs all over their house
    2)dont think your religion is better the Judea
    3)dont try to kill a jew
    4) dont make fun of their noses

    then you are not anti-semitic right?

    Semitic is a group of languages which originated in the Middle East. These languages include Hebrew, Arabic, Aramaic and others.

    Anyone who is anti-semitic is someone who detests any speakers of the Semitic group of languages, not just Hebrew.

    No, of course not. It's just what happens whenever you criticize Israel for anything. You get labeled an anti Semite. Personally, I'm sick of it. I watched the video, and it appears Mr. Paul thinks too much for his own good. Asking rational questions such as why they hate us gets you in trouble, which is why I like him.
