I’m confused. I thought antisemitism was prejudice toward Jewish people — prejudice being an opinion or belief without adequate basis.

It seems undeniable that a plea for peace is the indispensable, principal message of the demonstrations. Seeking an end to death, injury and starvation of civilians in Gaza does not fit the definition of Antisemitism.
