In today’s political climate, few terms are thrown around with as much force, and as much confusion, as antisemitism and anti-Zionism. They are often spoken in the same breath, treated as interchangeable, or used to shut down conversations before they even begin. But these two concepts are not the same, and understanding the difference between them is essential for anyone who cares about truth, justice, and honest public discourse.
Antisemitism is a form of hatred.
It is prejudice, discrimination, or hostility directed at Jewish people because they are Jewish. It has a long, painful history, one marked by violence, exclusion, scapegoating, and genocide. Antisemitism is real, dangerous, and must be confronted wherever it appears. It targets people for their identity, their culture, their faith, and their existence. It is a moral wrong with no justification.
Anti Zionism, on the other hand, is a political position.
It is a critique, or rejection, of the political ideology that supports the establishment and maintenance of a Jewish nation state in historic Palestine. Anti Zionism challenges state policies, systems of governance, and the consequences of those policies for Palestinians. It is not about religion. It is not about ethnicity. It is not about Jewish identity. It is about power, land, displacement, and the political structures that shape life and death in the region.
The confusion between these two terms is not accidental.
In many political spaces, the line between antisemitism and anti Zionism has been deliberately blurred. Some institutions and advocacy groups argue that criticizing Zionism or even criticizing the Israeli government is inherently antisemitic. This framing collapses a complex political ideology into a single identity, making it nearly impossible to discuss human rights violations, occupation, or the lived experiences of Palestinians without being accused of bigotry.
But conflating these terms does more than distort the conversation, it harms everyone involved.
It weakens the fight against real antisemitism by stretching the definition so far that it loses meaning. It silences Palestinians and their allies by labeling their calls for justice as hate speech. And it prevents honest, necessary debate about policies that have shaped decades of conflict, displacement, and suffering.
To be clear:
Opposing antisemitism is a moral obligation.
Critiquing Zionism is a political stance.
These two things can coexist.
They often do.
Many Jewish scholars, activists, and communities around the world are themselves anti Zionist, rooted in ethical, religious, or historical reasons. Their voices remind us that Jewish identity is not monolithic, and that dissent is not betrayal. Likewise, many people who critique Zionism do so out of a commitment to universal human rights, not out of hatred for any group.
Understanding the difference between antisemitism and anti Zionism is not just an academic exercise, it is a step toward clearer dialogue, deeper empathy, and a more honest reckoning with the realities of the present moment. It allows us to confront genuine hatred without silencing legitimate political critique. It allows us to defend Jewish communities from bigotry while also defending Palestinian communities from injustice. And it allows us to speak truthfully about power without fear of being misunderstood, or deliberately misrepresented.
This conversation matters.
Because clarity matters.
Because justice matters.
Because words shape the world we live in.
Welcome to This Week in Palestine.

John Arquilla– “Networks and Netwars”
Jan. 9, 2026, 5:45 a.m.
The war that the United States has invoked in what is often called the “War On Terror” is unusual in many ways. One of those ways is that this war is being fought against a network that is spread out in many unsuspecting and obscure places. It is not being fought as many wars have been in the past, directly against another county. Dr. John Arquilla, is a professor of defense analysis and co-director of the justify on Terrorism at the Naval Post-Graduate School in Monterey, California. In this program we talk with Professor Arquilla about the fighting tactics employed by networks as opposed to countries, the threats they pose, and some of the war tactics used against these networks.
John Arquilla recommends “Kim,” by Rudyard Kipling.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson -The Working Peoples Budget Historic Win - Presser /Q&A
Jan. 8, 2026, 3:44 a.m.
Chicago alderman passed an alternative budget to the one proposed by the Mayor of Chicago and his supporters in City Council. Billionaire money was spent to buy supposed "progressive councilmen " to prevent one provision of the of the Mayors "The Protect Chicago Budget", that included reinstatement of a minuscule corporate head tax on only the largest of the corporations doing business in the City, a tax that was initiated under the administration of the first Mayor Daley, back in the 1970's, and continued until neoliberal bag-man for the Israel First lobby, then Mayor Rahm Emanuel nixed it. Other than that and the legalization of some socially regressive gambling activities, the Budget that passed contained 98% of what was in the Mayors original. But
in that, only after an intensive people's lobbying campaign on certain aldermen forcing them to question whether they were more concerned about what Corporations and Billionaires thought than what their constitutions thought and might do in upcoming elections.

Judith Enck: The Problem With Plastics
Jan. 6, 2026, 8:01 p.m.
The United Nations Environment Programme estimates that each year a staggering 20 million tons of plastic waste is dumped into the world’s oceans, rivers, and lakes – that’s the equivalent of about 2,000 garbage trucks dumped into the globe’s waterways every day. This week on Sea Change Radio we are speaking with Judith Enck, former EPA administrator and current professor at Bennington College. We discuss her recent book, “The Problem with Plastics: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It’s Too Late.” We examine some of the alarming stats associated with what seems to be a never-ending rise in plastics production and consumption, talk about how relatively little plastic is actually recycled, and delve into some policies and practices that can help stem the plastic tide.
