First I'd like to see the evidence of this FACT.
If by over a billion people, you mean the global practicing Muslim population..then it's bull.
Sura 9:29, Tafsir Ibn Kathir and Reliance of the Traveller say you are wrong, sir.

I'd like to see your rationale for stating as FACT that the global Muslim population wants all jews to be extinct because,from my understanding.... Moslem and jews major conflict doesn't really exist before the 20th century.
Your understanding is flawed since they've been fighting since the 8th Century CE.

Jews lived in Moslem areas for centuries in relative peace ...and could have been wiped out at any given time.
They're still trying and had their chance to do so, twice, yet failed miserably, twice.

If you are talking about factions of global Muslims who are following the lead of Arab imams and clerics in their conflict against Israel.....surely you know that number is NO WHERE near "over a billion people"
Sura 9:29 and Tafsir Ibn Kathir crit you for 1,000,000 damage.

I agree with c.m. that this is a case of jews not responding well to ANY form of criticism of Israeli policy, or criticism in general and hiding behind the shield of being victims of anti-semitism.
When the criticism completely overlooks and devalues the other side of the story, it isn't criticism any longer but 'Yellow journalism'....sorta like when a man is accused of sexual impropriety towards a woman and the man is automatically 'guilty' just based on the accusation. The mere hint of impropriety and everyone loses their ability to judge rationally and reverts to pure emotion rather than logic.

I posted a press release from a coalition of jewish groups who are calling out this practice...and I made the joke that the deflection of criticism under a shield is similiar to the "you're an agent" smokescreen that is used here sometimes when people would rather avoid defending their stances
Has nothing whatsoever to do with what I posted since my only argument is that Jews bought the land, settled it, and have offered multiple times to share it but Arabs/Muslims have rejected their offers even though the Jews would get less than 1/3 of the land in-dispute.

An American citizen criticizing Israeli policy is not how "systemic persecutions start"...especially when that American citizen has the backing over OTHER jewish organizations.
ANYONE criticising Jewish policy IS how systemic persecution of Jews has started almost every time they've been persecuted throughout history. This is a fact of history, not a mere assertion without evidence to support it.

Hell, they even got accused of spreading the 'Black Death'.

And do you note the irony of trying to link an AA's comments about Israel to "the persecution of jews for over a millenium " when the jewish involvement in the slave trade in Europe,Caribbean and in America is well documented.
With all due respect, please stop it.
The actual irony is in you saying that Jewish involvement in the slave trade is some kind of disqualifier for their statehood or you siding with them. Meanwhile, the Arab/Muslim slave trade, also WELL-documented, does not disqualify them from statehood and you are perfectly fine siding with them.
With all due respect, read an actual objective history of the conflict instead of referring to tired, refuted, illogical, emotion-laden, propaganda-filled arguments from ignorance.
