Yes, Neturei Karta is antisemitic

Anti-Zionists love to trot out Neturei Karta as "real Jews" and as proof that they are not antisemitic since they welcome the fringe of Orthodox-looking Jews to their protests.

But what if Neturei Karta itself says antisemitic things?

Rabbi Yaakov Weiss, a NK leader in England, was interviewed by Al Araby, about the UK's decision to look more carefully at approving anti-Israel protests in the wake of a string of increasingly serious antisemitic attacks.  He said, "This serves the Zionists. They (the Zionists and their supporters in Britain) are looking forward to this, to attacks on the Jewish community, and silencing protests against Israel and Zionism."

He is claiming that Zionists, the vast majority of Jews, support attacks on their own  Jewish community because that helps, somehow, to silence anti-Israel protests. 

When antisemites say that most Jews are not really Jews but Khazars, that is antisemitism; When Neturei Karta says that they are the only real Jews and everyone else are not real Jews, that is no less antisemitism. And to claim that most Jews welcome attacks on Jews is simply slander. 

Neturei Karta blamed "Zionists" for October 7. They did not say a word of condemnation for the murders or rapes and did not say anything negative about Hamas, whose leaders they had met a number of times. 

Neturei Karta may be technically halachically Jewish. But there is nothing remotely Jewish about them.
