FWIW, the wiki definition is below.

I can see making the distinction between anti-semitic "hostility towards Jews" (as a belief, religion etc.) vs anti-Israel "hostility towards Israel" (the country and its policies). There is a nuance there.

Antisemitism (also spelled anti-semitism or anti-Semitism) is hostility to, prejudice towards, or discrimination against Jews.[1][2][3] A person who holds such positions is called an antisemite. Antisemitism is considered to be a form of racism.[4][5]

Antisemitism may be manifested in many ways, ranging from expressions of hatred of or discrimination against individual Jews to organized pogroms by mobs or police forces, or even military attacks on entire Jewish communities.
