Of course, if the general electorate becomes anti Israel, watch out. Ant Semitism will ramp up.
Of course a large percentage of the Democrat's base is/are(??) anti-Israel, they are sympathetic to the Palestinian cause....and they see Israel being a hindrance to that cause. Whether you agree with that position or, not...that's who the politicians/media are pandering too, and it's a legitimate position to have (and I have issues with that position).
With that said, there has been a few anti-Semitic tropes...but by and large the impetus for the anti-Israel rhetoric is due to disagreement with policy. If you can't see that, then you are either being willfully ignorant, or dogmatic in order to paint most lefties as sinister.
