Demographic change, DEI ideology, anti-Israel radicalism, and political cowardice have mainstreamed hostility toward Jews.
Few predicted that blaming Israel and the Jews who support it would flare up in the early 21st century—and in America of all places, where there are nearly as many Jews as there are in Israel.
After all, Israel is the only consensual society in the Middle East. It holds regular elections and maintains tripartite judicial, executive, and legislative checks and balances.
Free speech is found in the Middle East only in Israel, where religious apostasy, criticism of one’s own country, gender equity, and tolerance of gays are guaranteed in marked contrast to all its neighbors.
It was once common knowledge that Israel had survived the huge numbers of its enemies because its tiny population was better educated, freer, more adept at Western technology, more tolerant of dissent—and because it enjoyed the goodwill and bipartisan support of the United States.
True, the recent affluence of the Gulf States has presented a thin veneer of Westernism that has fooled many in the new anti-Israel media. But just because Qatar did not censor a celebrity newsman’s broadcast from Doha does not mean Qatar is a free society. After all, no Western journalist would dare schedule a broadcast from Qatar with a Qatari who had condemned the regime for its intolerance or announced his religious apostasy from Islam.
So why and how did millions of Americans begin to express hatred for Israel and, albeit more subtly, the Jews who support it?
There are four converging fronts in this perfect storm.
Demography
First, in demographic terms, the US Muslim population is expanding exponentially, due almost entirely to recent immigration and higher birth rates than the American norm (e.g., 2.5–8 versus 1.6–1.7).
There are now nearly five million Muslim Americans.

VDH ping
Wow, over 5 million muslims in the USA counting both citizens and non citizens. We are in so much trouble.
Anti-civilization barbarians and those who support them.
Excellent (though disturbing) article from VDH - as one would expect.
It is hard to believe it is only five million. I see them everywhere. When I was in NJ, the Edison Costco was completely overrun by them. Now in GA, and it is very similar in places like Alpharetta and Cumming. Maybe VDH is just referring to muslims who are here legally?
Yes, VDH was referring to legal residence. That is why I referred to over five million counting legals and illegals. Do we know how many illegal muslims are here? I think that we don’t have a clue. Biden was flying them in on special flights as if not enough were coming over the southern border.
As far as I can tell, all 5 million American Muslims are employed at US Airports, working security-related jobs.
.
Hospitals, too.
Have one Jewish work friend. They had a security meeting at their church (or rather, whatever it’s called) where an FBI sgebt came and told them about threats.
The FBI agent told them to say “none” or “prefer not to answer” when asked religion when checking into a hospital for surgery because they have confirmed reports of Muslims looking to quietly murder Jewish patients.
Also advised it was wise to not wear religious jewelry in large cities. Specifically warned about Houston.
I have to go to Houston all the time. If I wasn’t Catholic (and the least Jewish-looking person on the planet) I’d be wearing a giant Star of David.
OK, let’s not act silly. It’s called a temple or a synagogue.
Frankly, Israel could use a little more lebensraum.
Thank you. I was posting pre-coffee and couldn’t remember the name!
Jews vote 80% Dem
So boo hoo, they are getting what they voted for
There are 5 million in metro Atlanta or it seems like it at the grocery store. 🙄
The Roosevelt2 WHouse was openly hostile to Jews. Anti-Semitism (which = Jew hatred) is endemic to DC. The DNC follows its KKK roots.
