“Blood libel” was not a phrase used by anti-Semites; it was a term used to describe the ACTIONS of anti-Semites, ascribing group guilt and sinister motivation to a fictitious crime

Good luck, teach. This batch of students don't know what they don't know

The amount of stupidity necessary to think that this is a term used by anti-Semites against Jews is simply breathtaking!

From the ADL's site...

"Jews were widely persecuted as barely human "Christ-killers" and "Devils." Forced to live in all-Jewish ghettos, they were accused of poisoning rivers and wells during times of disease. Some were tortured and executed for supposedly abducting and killing Christian children to drink their blood or to use to it in baking matzoh - a charge known as the "blood libel".

Are you sure you want to profess that blood libel is not an anti-semetic term but actually one used to describe anti-semites....teach.
