    The historical Nazi Germany was actually quite supportive of zionist efforts and interestingly the reverse was also true for some time before the holocaust got into full swing.

      The Nazi party supported zionist plans because they wanted more options for expelling Jews. That was antisemetic.

      Modern Germany is supporting the state of Israel’s existence because of modern antisemitic rhetoric about how Israel shouldn’t exist. This requirement is in opposition to antisemitism.

      The context is completely different.
