The Canadian Parliamentary Coalition to Combat Anti-Semitism (CPCCA) issued a report in early July recommending the adoption of strict new standards defining anti-Semitism and the types of speech and campus activities that would violate them. Its report urged the Canadian government to adopt the European Union Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia’s definition of anti-Semitism (“Report on the Inquiry Panel,” 7 July 2011 [PDF]). That definition suggests that any questioning of whether Israel has the right to exist as a state that privileges Jews over people of other religions or ethnic backgrounds amounts to anti-Semitism.
Does a nation constructed within the land of another people, against the wishes of those people, and which excludes those people and actively curtails their human and civil rights, have a right to exist? Does a nation which has conquered or stolen everything it has have a right to exist? If you answer no to these questions you are going to need a lawyer.
