Have no experience of antisemitism myself and cannot remember the last time I heard anyone make an antisemitic statement or remark.
There are stories in the press, UK.gov generated no doubt, of the growing threat of anti-semitism in our universities. What's that all about? Is anti-Israel equal to antisemitism? I think not. Problem is that some UK.gov sources seem to think it is. If this is where we're going, then we have a problem, because as we all know if the population are pushed in such a manner, the problem will only get worse.
Talk good or bad, costs us nothing. Action on the other hand can cost a great deal. The people of UK are on the whole non-racist and non-antisemitic. There has always been that small annoying knot of folk who think like that.

It has been going on for over 5000 years, I think every anti-Semitic idea has already been recycled more times than any worthwhile resource has. And note that Semites are ALL people of the Middle East, not just Jews. So, the Muslims and Christians that inhabit that entire hot spot of the world are Semitic. Hate spreads, it is taught and it is vile. It would be Utopian to have the entire world just stop hating one another from this point forward. Not even "like" or "love", just NOT HATE. But who the hell am I anyway, right?

I am not against the Jews but in my opinion, Christians are being treated as badly if not worse in some instances. America is a Christian nation and yet we are not allowed to display Christian symbols. For instance, the Jews can display their Menorah during Hanukkah but Christians aren't allowed to display the Nativity scene with a baby Jesus during Christmas in many areas. Both are very religious icons and yet the Jews are given much more latitude. And in addition, employees in many public places are not allowed to say Merry Christmas to shoppers etc. This is clearly off balance and prejudicial. We are a Christian nation and if our Christian beliefs offend non-Christians then don't come here.

In my opinion of what I experience in everyday life, not bad at all. The problem is the media blasting the public with issue and blowing them way out of porportions to boost ratings and stir as much stuff up as they can.

It's not that bad anymore. I don't see why we all can't be respectfull of other religions. We bielieve what we do and should not care what others do. i hate it when people that try to convert others or say that other religions are wrong and they are racist about it. I don't aprove of alot of the things that the jews do but I respect them, and am tolerant of all religions.

It depends on where you are. In the Islamic world, it reached a genocidal pitch many years ago. In Western Europe, it is the worst since the 1930's. In the US, it is mostly on the left & a far right fringe.

It has always been Bad. It is one of the reasons that Jews find it hard to trust those who want to destroy them .

I associate it with the rise of Islam in this country.

Who said it was bad? Jews own all the movie studios, the TV networks and half of American business. They laugh all the way to the bank, they tell you what to watch and what to think.
