    Not sure if it was mentioned in this article, I skimmed it a couple of times, but the working definition of antisemitism:

    It requires the Department of Education to use the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance working definition of antisemitism when enforcing federal anti-discrimination laws. The working definition says antisemitism is in-part “a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews.” The definition includes denying Jewish people their right to self-determination by claiming that the State of Israel is a racist state and drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.

    Uh… how oddly specific of them to say that calling Israel a racist state and comparing them to Nazis is antisemitic. Its almost like the only purpose of this updated definition is to give Israel a blank check to do as much genocide as they wantbrow
