Is being anti-israeli the same as anti-semitic?

AFAIK, most of modern Israelis are not really related to Semites (Arabs, Assyrians, etc.) but are descendants of many European or American people.

Nope. The strongest anti-zionists were Jewish. The concept of creating Israel using military forces they did kind of goes against basic precepts of the faith.

Okay. How about calling Jesus and Mary "jews" of talmudic descendancy, if Talmud was only created 400 years later? Is that also a manipulation?

Antisemitism as understood by most is a very narrow and inaccurate definition. The majority of Semitic people aren’t Jewish, and most Israeli Jews have European, Indian, Iranian or Amazigh ancestry.

So why don't the real Semites protest against using them in Israeli's political fights?
