Why is it that when we don't agree with the American policy, we're called "anti-american". But when we're against Israeli policy, we're called "antisemite"??

Its politcal tricks to keep you in line. They shame you or guilt you from debating them to allow their agenda to get done. In the real America you can think and feel in any political matter you want. Its a free country. The only limits on freedom are the ones that you give away.

That's just a terminology problem.
Many people cannot seem to make the distinction between Israel, which is a secular country that happens to have a large percentage of Jewish citizens, and the Jewish religion, which exists worldwide.
What's truly sad is the number of people who seem to think that questioning or challenging specific policies or decisions by individual politicians is the same as hating the country in general. Those people seem to have forgotten the reason this country was founded in the first place -- freedom of expression and free participation in the political process.

Could it be that those who oppose the standards that are the bedrock of this society profess ideas contrary to the average American? Blame politicians not those putting their lives at stake. In case You have not figured it out Israel is composed of mostly Semites.

Why is it when Clinton has all 94 U.S. attorneys fired no one says anything but Bush has Gonzoles fire six and all of a sudden he is doing wrong.
Why? Plain and simple because there is always going to be someone who disagrees with you.

When you disagree with, or even question, someone else's status quo, you're always labelled an anti-something.

To quote Oscar Wilde: "If you cannot answer a man's argument, do not despair, you can always call him names.
