I reported this to LinkedIn and it did not find it to go against its community rules. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

More context since it seems like some people missed it:

She is saying they are criminals because they can’t trace their ancestry to actual Jewish people (because she misread the Haaretz report) and thus have no claim to Palestinian land (since that claim dates back to 3k years).

PS: Zionism is wrong, I’m just trying to explain what her post was about.

Basically she is saying: “European Jews are liars and criminals because they can’t trace their ancestry to real Jews” Sorry, I should have explained this better.

... ... I don't get it? The "look back" thing doesn't seem unreasonable, and neither does the "descended from 350 people" - there are other similar bottlenecks throughout history. Hell, 900,000 years ago, humanity's predecessors were reduced to roughly 1,280 people - a situation that lasted for over 100,000 years.

I admit that the "Criminals" comment isn't great, but (a) it doesn't seem related to the rest of the post, and (b) it doesn't seem particularly antisemitic. What am I missing?

I noticed my boyfriend had the same problem understanding it. Took a bit of explaining.

Edit: added a better explanation.

Sorry, I should have added more context here since I'm able to access her account and see the general pattern of posts.
