TULIP was a trade union organization promoting cooperation between Israeli and Palestinian unions and opposing boycotts of Israel. The 2010 opening stated that opposition to Israel sometimes "spills over into anti-Semitism." Today the word antisemitism occurs nowhere in the article. A reader today does not learn that TULIP's own stated reasoning for opposing boycotts of Israel was that such campaigns sometimes turn into antisemitism.
