Not mutually exclusive. They were motivated by anti-Zionism, sure, but they deliberately targeted the homes the Jewish board members of the Brooklyn Museum.
No part of this is targeting the people responsible for what is happening in Israel. The Brooklyn Museum has absolutely nothing to do with this conflict.
It is unfathomable that anyone with a modicum of humanity would defend vandalizing the homes of Jews because they are Jewish. This is rooted in the antisemitic trope that all American Jews have loyalty to Israel, and deserve retaliation.
Taking revenge on Jews for Israel’s crimes is absolutely antisemitic. You don’t have permission to hurt whoever you want because you are upset about what’s happening. This is no different than the assholes who attacked the homes and businesses of Arab Americans after 9/11.
