2/ Here are two definitions of antisemitism that are more careful on precisely these issues:

1. The Jerusalem Declaration On Antisemitism (2020)

https://jerusalemdeclaration.org/

Excerpt: Examples of conduct that are NOT antisemitic: "11. Supporting the Palestinian demand for justice and the full grant of their political, national, civil and human rights, as encapsulated in international law…12. Criticizing or opposing Zionism as a form of nationalism, or arguing for a variety of constitutional arrangements for Jews and Palestinians…13. Evidence-based criticism of Israel as a state. This includes its institutions and founding principles. It also includes its policies and practices, domestic and abroad, such as the conduct of Israel in the West Bank and Gaza."

2. The Nexus Document (2021)

https://nexusproject.us/the-nexus-document/

Excerpt: "Using accusations of antisemitism as a tool to suppress criticism of Israel is dangerous on many levels. It distracts attention from bona fide antisemitism, infringes on the principle of freedom of expression, and militates against constructive dialogue and debate among people with differing opinions."
