Fanning the flames of anti-Semitism?

In a throwaway sentence in the middle of a larger article, former Israeli MK Uri Avnery makes an extremely grave accusation:
"Our government is pouring petrol on the flames by instructing its representatives around the world to stigmatize all criticism of its actions as anti-Semitism."
Are you being serious, Mr. Avnery, or is this just hyperbole? Do you have credible information here, or are you just being irresponsible? Pray tell us more.
