You don't like Jews, do you.

No, I just don't like Israel.
You shouldn't be so fast to throw around ungrounded accusations of anti semitism or racism. Its a dick move and only makes you look like a jackass.
Israel =/= Judaism.
I wish more Jews could be like these guys.

A delegation of Anti-Zionist Rabbis met Thursday September 27, 2012 with the President of Iran during his visit to New York. The President along with a distinguished entourage, which included the Iranian Ambassador to the United Nations, warmly received the delegation. Both parties then conferred for approximately one half hour.
The President honored the head of the delegation, Senior Rabbi Moshe Dov Beck, a holocaust survivor, to open the meeting. The Rabbi spoke in Yiddish while his colleague, Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss translated into English.
The Rabbi began by greeting the President and thanking him for giving of his precious time, which, the Rabbi noted, is a symbol of his warmth the Jewish people, not only in his county but also abroad.
The Rabbi remarked: "the Torah teaches us to make a blessing when one encounters a king: "Blessed is the Almighty who gave of His honor to a human being".
"We are impressed with Your Excellency's concern and care for the Jewish community, a fact that we personally have experienced during our visits in Iran. We have visited the Jewish old-age home, the Jewish hospital and we have seen the Matzo bakery which is a necessity for Jewish people. Also it is well-known that the Jewish community is represented by its own member of parliament, despite the fact that the Jewish community does not have the number of constituents required to have a parliament representative" the rabbi said.
Amongst the issues discussed, the Rabbi mentioned that: "There are many many Jews worldwide including in occupied Palestine, who are against the whole concept of Zionism and totally in opposition to the State of Israel".
The rabbi praised the President for his understanding the difference between Judaism and Zionism.
"We would like to laud Your Excellency for understanding to differentiate between Judaism and Zionism, between good and evil. Far and few between, understand this fundamental difference, Your Excellency is one of the blessed people who understands the difference between the two" the Rabbi said.
