Anti-Semitism is indeed a patently ridiculous allegation levelled at those who criticise the actions of the blood-thirsty invading Zionist entity that is brutally occupying Palestine since Palestinians themselves are undeniably Semitic since 'Semitic' refers to people who speak Semitic languages especially such as Hebrew or Arabic.
The Semitic language family consists of dozens of distinct languages and modern day dialects, but the major Semitic languages are *Arabic*, Amharic (spoken in Ethiopia), Tigrinya (spoken in Ethiopia and Eritrea), Hebrew, Tigre (spoken in Sudan), Aramaic (spoken in Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Iraq and Iran) and Maltese.
Anti-Semitism?! Anti-Language??!! Maybe there's something in what Shulamit Aloni, former israeli cabinet member & winner of the 2000 israel Prize said, "'Anti-Semitic?' It's a trick. We always use it", to stifle legitimate criticism of israel.
When some folk, consciously or unconsciously, deploy the anti-Semitic trick on me I respond by way of reference to Semitic languages & ask for clarification that if what I am talking about is anti-Jew or not, and if it is seen as such then say so and show evidence. That usually ends any attack.

They don't like it when you stand up to them. Power to your elbow, mate!
