"Anything" that frontpage says does nothing to prove that there is still, right now, an antisemitic wave in France, sorry. It's just an enumeration of skeletons in the closets. Anyone can do that, for any country. It's an anti-french paper by an ultra-conservative magazine. Nothing new under the sun.

In short, you neither have the resources, nor the ability to refute anything FrontPage has to say. Rather, you'll "play the man instead of the ball" - i.e., attack the publication, rather than what it has to say.

That tactic may work in French academic debates, but not here.

what it has to say.

"What is has to say" has nothing to do with today's France, as I already said. In other words, emphasizing this paper is simply changing the subject. An "historical perspective" to illutsrate today's antisemitic incidents in France while these are comitted by muslims whose parents arrived 25 or 35 years ago is simply bullshit.
