"Hafrada" the Hebrew word for "separation" is the general policy of racial separation and discrimination the Jewish state has adopted over the Palestinians of the West Bank and Gaza. "Apartheid" is the Afrikaner word for "separation". "Segregation" was the American term for the same thing.
So what's the big deal - South African apartheid was bad, American segregation was bad -- but Hafrada to support Jewish domination over Palestinians is supposed to be OK? It's the same racist garbage, except that the Afrikaners and the white Americans were forced to end their immoral and cruel system decades ago, while the Israeli Jews and their sycophants here are slamming the Palestinian civil rights movement for trying to end Israeli "hafrada /apartheid/ segregation".
Somehow, we are supposed to swallow the tripe that calling Israel an "apartheid" state is antisemitic, but labeling it "hafrada" is not. Israel is a racist state, and defending Jewish racism there is not only immoral, but also gives concrete reasons for people to be antisemitic.
