What I am saying is that anti semitism is most likely percentage wise not so far off in the US...EXCEPT that it is not outwardly expressed and an identified part of the culture as it is in the mideast.
BTW, America’s Christian community until just recently being enamoured of Israel was very antisemetic. It actually came as quite a surpise to American Jews when in the last decade or so, fundamentalist Christians began to support Israel and Jews.
Reform, as you know, arose first in Germany, but became dominant in America as well. It's modeled on the Lutheran church reforms of the early 1500s.
Jacob's relatives to a man and woman became Christians.
They lived in a world where Judaism was just another church.
There's been this delusion by many Europhiles that the United States West of the Hudson is a wild country filled with Hillbillies and people who beat their wives. Time to get over such silly beliefs.
“It actually came as quite a surpise to American Jews when in the last decade or so, fundamentalist Christians began to support Israel and Jews.”
Not really. The fundamentalists Christians have always been OK, albeit annoying. It was the Lutherans, Methodist, and Episcopalians (in that order) I was told to watch out for.
I don’t know how old you are but fundamentalist Christians have been supporting Israel a lot longer than 10 years. How could they not? They see it as the fulfillment of biblical prophecy. I’d say they supported it since at least 1948. British fundamentalists supported it a lot longer than that. Remember Lord Balfour? Check the wiki entry on Zionism. There is a section on Christian support for Israel.
