Antisemitic sentiments and incidents continue to rise worldwide, particularly in the West. Sometimes this form of bigotry is perpetrated by far-right elements, other times at the hands of far-leftists and Islamists. It is rare to see both extremes unite for any cause except for their mutual disdain for Israel or Jews. It is even rarer to see them applaud and defend an American politician.

I usually appreciate Steve Emerson's work, but he leads with far-right as anti-semitic and then adds far-leftists and Islamists setting the impression that it's on the right where most of the anti-semitism stems. Yet, his article goes through some nine or ten different far-left or Islamist figures or groups before getting to the single and brief mention of David Duke. The order in which you list things matters especially when you make them equivalent, and I find Emerson's equivalence and order more than a little troubling.

I agree. Why is Emerson trying to lump that racist POS Duke with grassroots and mainstream conservatism to make his point about anti-Semitism? Our side has denounced David Duke numerous times and he’s out on the periphery on his own! Omar represents mainstream Democrat thinking when it comes to Israel, and San Fran Nan has many others who are just like Omar among the RATs in the House! They’re just silent about their Jew hate unlike Omar who is open about it! The problem for the RATs is that many of their far left voters share anti-Semitic and anti-Israel sentiments too. Let’s be honest. They’re the Jew hating political party in this country today!
