On the point: This anti-Israel trend is worrying, but it isn't antisemitism

I am uncertain where to put this, but here goes anyway. 
anyway$1 
I was chairman of the Jewish Society in a London college in the late sixties(of the last century :>)). 
:>))$1 
The college was littered with anti-Semitic literature provided mainly by the childen children of Arab diplomats. I remember particularly Syrians an Jordanians and Jordanians/Palestinians? doing this. 
 
this$1  
The UN U.N chairman, who was meant to be neutral, was a Jew-hater and once tried to threaten me by waving a gun in front of me. 
 
my face$1  
I would ask Jewish students to take heed. The Jewish students who are anti-Israel should also take note that Jew-haters don't give a hoot about your politics when it comes to who to attack. 
 
 
attack$1   

The anti-Israel attacks, the marches, the vile lies spread about our homeland are disgusting. The people who come to speak, who spread hate and call for Israel's destruction must be stopped.

But I do not believe British students are antisemitic( just Anti=-Zionist). They do not hate Jews but they naturally side with the underdog.

They like to believe they are fighting injustice. It is actually a compliment that we are not seen as the persecuted underdog any more but a worthy power to be taken seriously. These kids don't hate Jews. But Jewish students are paying for their boundless enthusiasm for any tom, dick or harry cause.

Yes, because...
