Bel Trew, does Bibi already have immunity from prosecution or not? Will this law give it to him, take it away, or reaffirm that he already has it?
Also, I know that a lot of criticism of Israel gets automatically branded anti-semitic, but where does anyone mention it here?
As it stands now, the High Court could remove Netanyahu's immunity from prosecution. The new law would give the Knesset the authority to ignore such a decision (my wife is Israeli by birth, and she's livid over this).
Nothing in the article mentions or implies anti-Semitism. I think Brian is just being proactive, because a lot of people assume that ANY criticism of Israel amounts to anti-Semitism (which is silly).

I didn't claim the article claimed anti Semitism. For someone who accuses me of not getting the point of a post, you sure as hell don't read mine, or you only read into it what you want to read into it.
I said, there are GOP politicians who throw that term out there , and GOP voters also throw that out there when someone criticizes Israel. In fact, I just read a tweet from a GOP supporter just today doing just that. And I see comments like that almost every day from followers of the GOP on social media. It is a common tactic for a crook to deflect and blame when they know someone is onto them. It is worse when that crook has political support. Media is the way they protect themselves as much as other lagit media tries to hold them to account.
That is perfectly reasonable considering that of Fox Viewers hang on the word of dipshits like Hannity whom is basically a conspiracy theorist posing as a journalist. And considering the orange turd uses the words "Fake News" every damned day, it should not surprise you that when people do read lagit articles like the OP, when they turn to Fucks News, they will say things like "Anti Semitism."
FYI your wife should be livid, they've got a Donald Trump version leading their country too.
