5. Jewish Agency
Ricardo Macher ,   Karnei Shomron IL   (01.23.11)
This people who publish this report are a very good example of the guetho mentality! The solution is before their eyes, come home to Israel and you will have no problem with anti-semitism. All the time that you are worried about your money and the level of pleasure you can get out of life you will live in the shtetl, always afraid of a new progrom!
6. When Jews protect themselves, it leads to anti-Semitism, as

7. The hatred originating it all in based upon the fictions....
JMK ,   NYC   (01.23.11)
going by the name the Gospels and the Koran. Fight the hate at the source neither Jesus nor Mohammed ever existed.
8. It never LED to Antisemitism-thats been there for 2000 years
Alan ,   SA   (01.23.11)
It was just an excuse for Jew Haters everywhere to express it again.
9. 'raid led to global anti semitism
tiki ,   belgium   (01.23.11)
NONSENSE. Anti semitism was ALWAYS there, just nicely hidden under the carpet, ALWAYS waiting for the 'right occasion to let it all come out in the open, which is good, so no Jew can delude himself anymore and look to his/her neighbour with a healthy dose of sceptisism....., a 'warned person counts for two! Anti Semetism or better Jew hatred was always there and will NEVER go away, even if Israel will hand over it's entire country to the 'suffering Pal's.
10. NOTHING NEW REALLY
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (01.23.11)
There will always be antisemitism simmering in the underbelly of mankind. Incidents like this are used to spread the lies. It's an old PR trick, you get the name of Israel into as many negative articles as can, even those that have nothing to do with Israel. It's a form of subliminal conditioning, the idea being people keep hearing or reading the name of Israel with negativity, they begin to wonder if something isn't wrong? The idea of if there is smoke, there must be fire. As I've stated many times and Tony Blair recently mentioned these people "disagree fundamentally with our way of life" and they're in this for the long haul. They look at it as a PR war, and that in 1 year, 100 years or even 1000 years of negativity they will win that war. This flotilla PR stunt is a classic example even with overwhelming evidence (video, pictures, interviews etc.) that points to Israel's total innocence and exoneration, the lies continue. We still hear and read of starvation in Gaza when many...but not all...have seen the pictures and know this is a blatant lie. So it goes on. Even the written defense of Israel is condemned as propaganda by Israel. So the people who have been caught repeatedly lying (the Arabs), accuse the Israeli's of lies. This is their common tactic, accuse others of what they themselves are guilty of, knowing there is a built in audience ready to believe their lies. And nice bunch of people Neo-Nazi groups, Ku Klux Klan, Skinheads with Nazi ties and the Arab organization allied with them. Sadly even some well meaning politically left leaning parties are the unwitting allies of these groups.
11. Wrong title, raid did not lead to antisemism, it was there
MD ,   Pafos Cyprus   (01.23.11)
Raid did not lead to antisemitism, it only revealed even more, but it was already there to start with. Saying it led to antisemitism is semantically wrong.
12. DOOMED
mike Caton ,   USA   (01.23.11)
The Jews in France are doomed, if they do not emigrate--of course, the native French are also doomed--where will they go?
13. I'm waiting for the usual Islamic apologists
Tahl ,   Ashdod   (01.23.11)
Who would make the ridiculous claim that the Jews in the world have brought these attacks on themselves, since they did not distance themselves from Israel's actions. By the same logic of course, every time a Muslim commits an atrocity against the West (and boy, you don't have to hold your breath for too long for that to happen), then all the Muslims living in Europe and America are fair game for retribution.
14. Anti-Israel is not anti-Semitic.
D3C0D3 ,   USA   (01.23.11)
Anti-Israel is not anti-Semitic. This is a tired worn out game. Should a whole religion be held accountable for the actions of one country? I have Jewish friends that I love that does not effect the way I feel about Israel. Also I do not believe that Israels leaders have been making decisions that reflect the people of Israel. That is a world wide problem.

16. The Same Old Story Over And Over
Johann Gilberton   (01.23.11)
Unfortunately, hatred exists in many different forms against many different people including Jews that hate each other. Christians hating and killing Christians, Muslims hating and killing Muslims and everyone else hating and killing each other. We do live in a sick world and if we look at and read about the last 2000 years of history honestly, it has been devoid of God. Unless we all lift ourselves out of hate and see each other as equals then we will surely destroy ourselves all because this world is headed to the trash heap if we all don't change for the better. No one else will change it for us. No savior, no messiah, no prophet, no dictator. Wake up, the world is burning up.
17. jewish agency: raid let to global anti-semitism.
payer ,   planet earth   (01.23.11)
can better be: raid let to anti-zionism, jews-hate (judenhass). do the author of this article really know how the term anti-semitism was first used, what the exact definition/phenomenon of anti-semitism is and where it came from?
18. "a third of Europeans have negative opinions about Jews"
Doug ,   Rochester, USA   (01.24.11)
That is not nearly as high as the percent of Jews that have a negative opinion about Arabs. But I guess the Jewish Agency feels that racism against Arabs is fine, but racism against Jews is horrible, unjustified, unfair, uncivilized.
19. #14
mitch ,   USA   (01.23.11)
that is ignorance. Ppl like u link Jews and Judaism as if we are like Christians and Muslims>. Both Christianity and Islam are Religions. pure and simple. They can be for any number of races and ethnicities. Judaism is not. Being Jewish is also an Ethnicity with One homeland. one common history. It is the glossing over of this fact or attempting to erase it which allows these negative viewpoints to propagate by attempting to delegitimise or erase our claim to the ONE place on earth we call our own. as for the religious aspect,every year we say religiously next year in jerusalem.. u make the equivelent of saying I like my black friends but not black ppl. grow up and call a spade a spade
20. #19. mitch: How backward you are?

21. #19. mitch: How backward you are? (/s)
Thomas ,   Dixieland USA   (01.24.11)
Don't you know that according to the Leftists "ethnicity" and Nation States are the curse of the world? Jews are "foreign colonialists" they deserve no country, they should go back to "Poland and Germany". So said Helen Thomas the Washington press' DOYENNE! Only the "Religion of Peace" and Islamic countries are the bacon of freedom and progress. Don't you read the N.Y. Times and Haaretz Jew-experts? (/sarc.)
22. french anti-semitism pre-dates arabs
moron ,   galut   (01.24.11)
23. Anti-semites lead to anti-semitism
Jack ,   Brookline, MA   (01.24.11)
Title of this article a big mistake. Classic error throughout Jewish History is to ascribe anti-semitiism to this or to that behavior of the Jews when in fact the ONLY cause of anti-semitism are anti-semites themselves.
24. global antisemitism......
les ,   canada   (01.24.11)
so what else is new? can you guys just STOP WORRYING ABOUT ALL THE CRACKPOTS coming out of the woodwork, and just look after the interest and needs of your people, and YOUR COUNTRY? is the hatered and the wish to eliminate israel is news to you?
25. Israel's growing ties with Euro and US neo Nazi groups.
Moise   (01.24.11)
Well I don't quite understand this repport. Israel has been developing a very productive relation with neo Nazi groups in UK, Austria, France, Holland and the US. Just few weeks ago, the leader of the Holland neo Nazi apologist Geert Wilders was the guest of Israel, not to mention Tea party in US, Front national in France, who's ne leader Marine lepen stated that she was a Zionist. This is contributing in anti Israel feeling too among left and human right organization over the world.
26. To Mitch, #19
Gregg ,   Haifa, IL   (01.24.11)
You are the ignorant here Mitch. Take a good dictionary and read the def. for "Judaism". And because I am nice, I am gonna give it to you: Judaism -> practice of a RELIGION based on the Torah and the Talmud. If you mean ethnical Jews, with the share of same historical background, you might talk about Hebrews then... Grow up, open a book, and call a spade a spade, or a cat a cat... Have a good day
27. to #14 yes it is, there is only one jewish stat
ghostq   (01.24.11)
on this planet.
28. 19 & 27
D3C0D3 ,   USA   (02.16.11)
According to you Jews world wide should be held accountable for the actions of Israel. Sorry but that would be anti semitic.
