Answer:
Criticism that habitually singles out Israel for criticism while
ignoring far worse actions by other countries (especially other Middle
Eastern countries) is generally perceived as anti-Jewish. Likening
Israel to Nazi Germany, or to traditional anti-Jewish stereotypical
behavior is another sure sign of Jew-baiting.
It's also better to criticize within the Jewish community, rather than
airing dirty laundry that can be twisted and used against us. Jewish
newspapers are regularly filled with lively debate on Israel.
See the superb essay "Judging Israel" by Charles Krauthammer, Time
magazine, February 26, 1990.
