Without a definition of “antisemitic”, one that distinguishes between hate directed at Jews for their ethnicity or religion, versus criticism of the state of Israel or supporters of Israel, then I’m taking this with a massive pile of salt.
“Antisemitism” is being weaponized to suppress any opposition to the genocide of Palestinians, the taking of their land, the occupation that has lasted for more than half a century already.
It’s disgusting how Jews all over the world are letting this happen. We hear all the time “do you condemn Hamas” asked of anyone who doesn’t fully support everything Israel does, but then we should be able to ask them
Do you condemn Israel?
Damn Israel’s even making life hard for Jewish people.
They were Hamas the whole time!

Do you even read the things you post?
The war in Gaza appears to have triggered an alarming spike in threats against Jews and Jewish institutions regardless of their relationship to the state of Israel.
Is literally the first line mate.
And calling me Hitler and saying I want a final solution because I read the article only shows your own bigotry.

Yeah Israels actions have harmed all Jewish people, that’s what I said in my original post.

You just can’t help yourself with the insults can you?

It’s got at least a couple of meanings in the here and now
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The war in Gaza appears to have triggered an alarming spike in threats against Jews and Jewish institutions regardless of their relationship to the state of Israel.
The number of antisemitic incidents in the UK has reached a new annual high, according to data gathered by a Jewish safety watchdog.
The types of altercations recorded include assault (up 96% since 2022) damage and desecration of Jewish property (up 146%), threats (up 196%) and abusive behaviour (up 149%).
CST stated that the “driving force” behind the 147% surge in anti-Jewish abuse last year was Hamas’s attack on Israel on the 7th of October.
British Home Secretary James Cleverly condemned the rise in antisemitic abuse as “utterly deplorable”.
He said the government had taken steps to confront it, including increasing funding for protective security at Jewish schools and places of worship.
The original article contains 316 words, the summary contains 138 words. Saved 56%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
