It's not funny! Shame you are unable to distinguish between the legitimate technical discussion of the OP and the ensuing racism.

Criticising Israel, its government, or a company from that country is NOT anti-Semitic.

That's a very very ignorant point of view.

I didn't see ANYONE criticising the Jewish or the Jewish community.

Grow up.

Well said, John.

Really? It is not just criticism when it is obvious that a few posters here are being anti-Semitic by holding Israel & its firms to a higher standard than the rest of the democratic world.

It's you that is being ignorant of the state of the world today.

I think it would be best to just move on.

It is yourself who is being ridiculous. A person bring opposed to some or all actions of the state of Israel or even of an Israeli company is neither antisemitic nor tell you anything of their personal beliefs or views of the Jewish religion.

To equate criticism of some actions of the state of Israel with being antisemitic is extremism of the kind that many of us, including the Jewish community, would like to see eliminated.

I thought we were talking about an Israeli company and not the state of Israel?

There's a big difference between criticising the state of Israel for breaching UN resolutions, and suggesting an Israeli company can't be trusted without offering any justification for your assertions.
