Should it be illegal to burn the Israeli flag?
Flag desecration is any act that is carried out with the intention of damaging or destroying a national flag in public. This is commonly done in an effort to make a political statement against a nation or its policies. Some nations have acts that ban flag desecration while others have laws that protect the right to destroy a flag as a part of free speech. Some of these laws distinguish between a national flag and those of other countries.

While yes, this could be viewed as antisemetic(especially if done and/or seen by neo-nazi and/or anti Israel groups), it would also be a violation of free speech to ban it. Maybe a compromise of having the right to burn other specific institutional flags(for example: army, MDA, and Police flags)
