Exactly. So if you oppose that, you are opposing radicals and a particular governmental policy of Israel. No connection to antisemetism there. And it's only partially linked to anti-Zionism, in that if you don't support Israel then you most likely don't support its expansion. But it doesn't go the other way.

Hence they are all related.
"Related" is pretty loose language. Sure, they're related. But antisemetism is also "related" to Zionism, in the same way that plenty of racists were fans of the "back to Africa" movement. "Sheep from the same flock" is wrong, however.

You cannot divide the issue up because you don't want to appear anti-Semitic
No, but you can divide "the issue" up because it is more than one issue in the first place.
