‘Anti-Semitism’ has no EU official definition

Kevin McCarthy claims (Letters, Irish Examiner, July 7) that advocating for a one-state solution in Palestine and Israel “meets the EU’s definition of anti-Semitism”. 

Indeed, he says that “claiming the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavour” meets said definition.

However, as reported by the Times of Israel, Electronic Intifada and other sources as far back as 2013, the EU agency for combating racism dropped its definition of anti-semitism.
