One Israeli, Rudy Rochman, is marketing his own sudra with a Star of David pattern, and he made this video describing it and its Jewish roots.
The only reason I found this video is because rabid anti-Zionist Rafael Shimunov stumbled upon it and labeled it "genocidal."
Yes, Jews wearing a scarf like their own Middle Eastern ancestors did is "genocide." Just like Israeli versions and adaptations of Middle Eastern foods are "genocide." Just like Israeli versions of Middle Eastern dance are "genocide."
Perhaps the ubiquitous olive wood camels that Arabs eagerly sold to Jewish tourists in the 1950s and 60s are also "genocide."
The constant associating Jews with genocide is, of course, deliberately meant to invert the Holocaust, the event that the term to be coined for. It is ironic that the people who pretend to care about genocide by using it for everything Israelis do are redefining and trivializing the term so that it becomes meaningless - and therefore all but ignored in cases that it really happens.
To the modern antisemites, applying the term to Jews is far more important than genocide itself.
