    I wonder how many of these hate crimes were the result of tearing down the “missing” posters New York Jews are hanging everywhere while completely refusing to acknowledge dead Palestinian children.

      It’s both. Actual antisemitism is probably on the rise, and supporters of Israel are conflating genuine criticism of Israel’s appalling response with antisemitism

        Why downvote both of those are likely true or they would have couched or more specifically like anti semitic attacks.
