Anti-Semitism and the War in Lebanon

Iraqi prime minister Nouri Al-Maliki was recently called an anti-Semite for referring to Israel as the aggressor in the war in Lebanon. Of course, I don't know how he feels about Jews, but why is anyone who doesn't support the murder of hundreds of civilians in Lebanon by the Israelis considered and anti-Semite?

I support Israel, and I believe they have the right to defend themselves. I believe that they have the right to act militarily in support of their soverenty and security. The thing is, the destruction of Lebanon only hurts Israeli security. First of all, by destroying the Lebanese infrastructure and undermining their democracy, they are just begging for Hezbollah or another foreign supported, anti-Israeli group to seize power. Second, and more importantly, Hezbollah was created to resist the Israeli occupation of Lebanon, and in very much the same way, this latest violence will surely sway the next generation if not to Hezbollah, then to some other anti-Israeli militant group.
