Reply #12: I don't doubt that anti-semitism is far less than anti-Muslim sentiment in England [View All]

That's true in the US too, although I have witnessed and personally experienced anti-semitism in the US.

The point of the article wasn't about the US or England though, but about the virulent anti-semitism that is rampant throughout the arab world. Even the worst anti-Muslim sentiment in the west couldn't even hold a fraction of a candle to the anti-semitism in the middle east.

All racial prejudice is bad, but one is a typical part of the media's presentation of an entire ethnic group, whereas it isn't publicly tolerated in the west. Muslims rioted over a likeness of Mohammed being used in a cartoon, and yet I could share (but I can't, here on I/P of the DU) incredibly racist, horrible anti-semitic cartoons from the Arab press.
