Will antisemitism ever be looked at and dealt with in the same way as Islamophobia is?

So Jewish people do at least report being victims of hate crime significantly more in recent years. Even adjusting the figures for non reporting of crimes - apparently up to 80% of Muslims don't report hate crimes - it's a bleak picture for both Jews and Muslims right now.

I would assume Muslims are more likely to be victims of race-based hate crime as well as religious hate crime. I do feel that has a part to play. I'm not sure how helpful it is to conflate or compare the two.

You may not see this if you have genuinely flounced this time. There have been some pretty balanced comments on this thread from most. Some of the most bigoted I think have been from you.

But there aren’t just two groups in the UK. Is having an anti muslim hostility tsar homophobic?

Not this again, it’s so bloody tedious.
It’s not you or them.
Stop trying to drum up being a victim and just concentrate on having a happy life. You only get one.

Can you pinpoint anything anyone has said in this thread that you think suggests they are antisemitic?

Can you give us some specific examples of antisemitism you have witnessed and how they were dealt with?

Can you explain how you feel that antisemitism and islamophobia are dealt with/viewed differently?

I think a bit more context would be really useful.

Surely you’re joking or you’ve got a very very bad short-term memory

You mean the place where the US Has invested interests in mineral resources and exploitation thereof?

Yep. Decent people couldn't give a shit what a person's race, religion, creed, etc is.
What I, and many others, do care about is whether someone preaches and practises peace and compassion for all of humanity. Heal the world!

I made sure my kids had my husband’s non-Muslim surname after 7/7 due to the increase in Islamophobia. Was that ok?

You have ignored the many peaceful people here who deplore antisemitism and Islamophobia. If you had posted, ‘is antisemitism wrong?’, you would have rightly had many people say it is unacceptable. It was more that you were trying to compete with Islam and make out that Islamophobia was much less of an issue. That is what has led to your results.

You seem full of hate. There are people like you on every ‘side’ and it is really unhelpful. You are seeing what you want to see here. Most people on this thread are behind the innocent Jewish people .

Antisemitism is on the rise and should be stamped out. As should Islamophobia. And racism. And homophobia. Do you agree? That is no more whataboutery than your disingenuous and divisive OP.

Sadly, many people equate being Jewish with supporting the Isreali government. But people also accuse those standing against Israeli genocide in Palestine, and now other parts of the Middle East, of anti semitism. Neither is fair or correct.

I don’t think your claim that Jewish people are having a much harder time of it is true.

Thank you!!! Anti-Zionism is not anti-semitism and having travelled to Israel it’s sad the amount of racism that is faced by “Arabs” - that’s how Asian people are referred to and Black Jews. Even though they have actual Jewish lineage they are referred to as beta-Jews…go figure…

You don't seem able to allow people to have nuanced opinions. If they don't absolutely agree with you on your view of antisemitism you disniss them as antisemitic sheep. It's quite astonishing.

The history of Israel as a religious people and a nation-state and an ethnicity is so complicated that I'm not sure it's possible to hold one straightforward view. I think I just believe a lot of things which I think are true at the same time, and some of them don't sit comfortably together.

I think Jewish people, like everyone else, should be able to live safely and practice their faith in a way that doesn't hurt anyone else.

I think the creation of the State of Israel was an act of colonialism by the British and others. Jews believe God promised them that land, but other people were living there. It very much feels like a solution created at other people's expense.

I read 'Jews Don't Count' and found it really challenging and I would recommend it to others. I do think Israel is held to different standards and this is quite likely antisemitic. However, I think it's also because they are seen as a democratic Western state and it feels like they should be held to account more than countries which aren't democratic.

The magnitude of trauma of the holocaust makes it almost impossible to be reasonable. It has left a scar that hasn't healed, and is still causing pain. I think any binary opinion without caveats is unlikely to be productive in finding healing.

Actually forget it.

A quick AS of the OP and the word 'Islam' tells me pretty much all I need to know without examples - not that they bothered to provide any anyway.

I'm out.
