Yeah but it’s still fighting racism with racism, no? I get that it’s easy for me being a white dude from america to denounce zionism without veering off into antisemitism, sure, and I can understand why a muslim might end up hating all jews. It’s complicated for sure, but like I said I think back on what Fred Hampton said about fighting fire with fire, you don’t fight it with racism (fire) but water (solidarity).
I wouldn’t tell native Americans to fight settler colonialism with solidarity and I’d think their hatred of Christians was justified. I think the timeline of colonialism and the specific place of black Americans in the 60s compared to Palestinians may make the two situations distinct.

Saying they excuse it doesn’t mean they endorse it just that they understand why people react that way

Fair. I just don’t want to add anymore fuel to the fire that all muslims hate all jews and that all leftists are antisemites.
