Un grupo de 122 académicos, periodistas e intelectuales palestinos y árabes expresa su preocupación ante la definición de antisemitismo de la Alianza Internacional para el Recuerdo del Holocausto (IHRA), y la forma en que esta definición se ha aplicado, interpretado y desplegado en varios países de Europa y América del Norte.

El antisemitismo debe ser desacreditado y combatido. Independientemente de la excusa, no se debe tolerar ninguna expresión de odio hacia los judíos como judíos en ningún lugar del mundo.

Sin embargo, la lucha contra el antisemitismo no debe convertirse en una estratagema para deslegitimar la lucha contra la opresión de los palestinos, la negación de sus derechos y la continua ocupación de su tierra.
