Facts matter.

As I said above: I don't mind people's splitting the hair and try to never argue about definitions. To me, "condemn Israel to enter" is 100% a "Jewish Exclusion Zone", but the most important thing to agree that these are both equally unacceptable.

Do you believe all Jews supports Israel? That sounds like what you are saying and is blatantly antisemitic.

[u/knign → u/Caisers]

First, "support Israel" ≠ "refuse to 'condemn' Israel"

Second, vast majority of Jews do support Israel, regardless of their opinion about specific policies.

Third, it's immaterial. Some ethnic Jews don't even identify as Jews, other do identify as Jews but aren't considered "officially" Jewish, etc. People have ethnic identities, religious identities, cultural identities and political identities which often get intertwined in a complicated mesh. That's not the point.

Point, Israel as the Jewish state is inseparable from Jewish identity.

vast majority of Jews do support Israel, regardless of their opinion about specific policies.

The discussion was about the latter.

63% pro-Israel. 23% pro-Israel and supportive of Israeli policies.

64% of Jewish Americans have a favorable view of Israel. 56% of Jewish Americans have little or no confidence in Benjamin Netanyahu.
