Would it be accurate to say that you're looking for a clarification that "the Jews" and "the state of Israel" aren't synonyms?
I'm assuming that from PHK's point of view, he casually used "the Jews" as a identity for "Israel". That's crass and wrong, but as another white European I'm ashamed to say that it is something that I might have also done before I was given the opportunity to learn a little more about the topic.
I'm assuming that from your point of view, the language PHK used, with the history irremediably attached to it, is presumably just such obvious anti-Semitic racism, perhaps being so similar to language that you've certainly heard several times before, that you feel compelled to call it out as such.
And so, here we are: unable to discuss the topic because the language is constructed from hand-grenades. By the time we have recognized them as such, our hands are already missing.
