“Anti-semitic” is a phrase borrowed from the German meaning “Jew hater.” The word “semitic” was coined to categorize language groups although pseudo-racist theories applied it to races that don’t exist. If “anti-Semitic” were applied to Arabs, then Hitler would not be an “anti-Semite” since one of his best friends was the Mufti of Jerusalem and the Mufti headed a Waffen SS group consisting of Muslims of various backgrounds who slaughtered thousands of people in Yugoslavia.
