I watched the video where exactly does he say that? Closest I saw was he said "we have implemented a vigorous new visa policy that will prevent foreign nationals from coming to the United States to foment hatred against our Jewish community" - seems a lot more vague than the post title

Huh? "Those who call for the death of Israelis are calling for the death of Jews, those that call for the destruction of Israel are calling for the destruction of the jewish people."

"After killing two innocents who he beloved were jews he proudly shouted free free Palestine, words that now surve as a battle cry for the death of Jews and the destruction of Israel and the horrors we must never again allow. There can be no compromise with antisemitism"

"Those who call for the boycott of Israel are calling for the boycott of their Jewish neighbors and classmates"

"We will stand with the Jewish people. We have implemented a vigorous new visa policy that will prevent foreign nationals from coming to the United States to foment hatred against our Jewish community"

The guy spends almost the entirety of his speech equating the Zionist state with Jews. "Free Palestine" is genocidal language according to Rubio. He paints the DC shooters motives as antisemitic even claiming he thought they were Jews, when its clear in his manifesto that his motivations were anti-zionist.

All language critical of Israel or in support of Palestine is fair game according to Rubio here. If "Free Palestine" is genocidal language then all critical messages regarding Israel are genocidal language.

He's using all the same language and talking points that the state of Israel uses to equate Jews and Zionism as a unity, when they're not.

I didn't say I agree with the speech or his Zionist worldview I said he I didn't see where he said "anyone who criticizes Israel will not be granted a visa to the United States"

He's not saying the quite part out loud, the title is making the quite part loud. Rubio is dog whistling for 4 minutes. The goal is to create a chilling effect in all critical voices through the abuse of the visa system. He hopes you see the abuse and decide to shut your mouth.

Fascists are too deceptive to say what they really mean. They need a shred of plausible deniability to stay relevant in "polite society".
