What I said was "a bit schizophrenic" as the two ideologies are at different ends of the spectrum.
And again, one can be anti-Semitic or anti-Israel and still not espouse Nazi ideals. Disliking Jews and disagreeing with the policies of Israel is a long way from advocating Aryan supremacy or extermination of the Jews. There are as many clueless on the left as on the right so I wouldn't be surprised that it was said, but I would suspect that any "liberal" who called for the non-existence of Israel is mislabeled.
