Anyone can criticise Isreal.
The problem has been that some people, often on the left but also some on the far-right, try to blame Israel for things they have nothing to do with. From 9/11 to the 2008 crash there is a section of society that tries to infer 'a hidden hand of Israel' behind negative world events.
It's anti-Semitic because it's invoking the puppetmaster tropes. This is a racist trope that's been directed at Jews to suggest they're controlling world events. All that's happened is they're replacing 'Jew' with 'Israel' to try and dismiss claims of anti-Semitism.
