At no point in this conversation were they inconsiderate, you on the other hand... Your self righteousness is making you completely blind to self reflection. Take a moment and reread this thread putting aside your moral certitude and it's clear who's tone was inconsiderate.

The problem is that it's easy for the interested parties to equate it to antisemitism when intermixed with legitimate protest of Israel's horrendous actions are actual antisemites coopting the conversation for their own purposes. Antisemitism is at it's highest point in my entire lifetime. Things to note: Muslim Israelis (about 20% of their population) support Israel's wartime actions at about the same rate as Jewish Israelis. Also, the language used in opposition to, or in support of, Israel in this conflict is different than in comparable one sided wars.
To be clear I want to reiterate that i think what Israel is doing is undeniably awful, but I think antisemitism, and anti Muslim sentiments, color how people interpret and talk about what is happening irrespective of government officials agendas. It's absolutely part of the conversation whether we like it or not, and we have to navigate that as part of the larger conversation. This isn't to say I don't agree with you, it is bullshit to just paint everything as antisemitism.
Well every minute they're alive feels like an eternity, even if they die early. The peak age of death is 84, even though the average is lower. If Trump dies before that age while getting the best healthcare in the world, it will still feel like he lived forever.
