Yesterday, Tel Aviv University's Kantor Center
released its report
Antisemitism Worldwide 2018. The 148-page report examines anti-Semitism around the world, surveying both the number of incidents and underlying causes and trends. It says in part:
The most disturbing development, that keeps continuing and intensifying since 2016, is that Jews in some countries feel they live in a state of emergency, because of the continuing rise, most notably in Western Europe and North America, in antisemitic manifestations.
- As a result Jews started questioning and doubting their association with places and societies they have lived in for long, sometimes for centuries....
The normalization and mainstreaming of antisemitism in public forums, debates and discussions is manifested in all media channels, most notably the social networks. Antisemitism is no longer an issue confined to the activity of the far left, far right and radical Islamists triangle - it has mainstreamed and became an integral part of life....
Mainstreamed as well is the growing use of of antisemitic terms in anti-Zionist discourse, and the disproportionate hostility directed against the Jewish nation-state, which resumes Jewish characteristics.
