Also, I find it unimaginative at the least to call antisemite someone who is
definitely and actually an enemy of Israel.

What do you mean in your last line by the way? Since when did opposition to
Israel entail being an anti-Semite?
[rhinoceros 2]
I was referring to the comments about anti-semitism in the BBC article. What
I meant was this: Anti-semitism is an accusation for a kind of racism. If
someone is at war with Israel over real issues or an ally of someone who is
at war with Israel over real issues, calling that someone an anti-semite is
whiney.
[Jonathan 2]
Yes, I agree somewhat. The term has been abused as a debate killer.

Jonathan
