Reflections from Budapest - “Delegitimization of Israel is not criticism but anti-Semitism” - Discussion with Virág Gulyás

In the fifth episode of our new series, ’Judaism and Anti-Semitism in Hungary’, we are joined by Virág Gulyás, a non-Jewish Zionist activist and journalist who is well-known for her blog called the Almost Jewish. We talked about how she became a Hungarian non-Jewish activist who fights against anti-Semitism in the US. In our discussion, we covered topics related to anti-Semitism in Hungary, such as the misperception in the US and Western countries regarding the level of anti-Semitism in Hungary, the difference between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism if there’s any, and the question of why it’s important to fight against anti-Semitism.
