Hardly anti-semitism, since most of them are not semitic...the truth is it's a response to your sick crimes and brutal ways, in the ME and elsewhere.

Israel said that 2009 was a record year for acts of anti-Semitism across the world, which were mainly sparked by its war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip a year ago.

"2009 was the year where the largest number of anti-Semitic incidents was recorded," said a governmental report published ahead of the January 27 International Holocaust Remembrance Day.


"With the start of the operation, a wave of acts of anti-Semitism started across the world," it said of Israel's Operation Cast Lead in December 2008 and January 2009, during which some 1,400 Palestinians and 13 Israelis were killed.


According to the report, the expressions of anti-Semitism consisted of acts of violence, the burning of synagogues, defacing of cemeteries and Holocaust memorials, as well as verbal assaults.


But the report also considered as anti-Semitic acts that sought to "delegitimise" Israel, including some protests against Israeli policies.


"Most of the incidents reflected longstanding and known anti-Semitic ideas, but were extreme, intensive and louder than before... Many of the expressions of anti-Semitism in 2009 created a total link between Israelis and Jews."

Diaspora Minister Yuli Edelstein said in the report's introduction that "it is hard nowadays to tell the difference between anti-Israeli attacks in Europe and the United States, as well as other places in the world, and anti-Semitic attacks."

The report said 631 anti-Semitic acts were committed in France in the first half of 2009, 113 of them violent, compared with 474 incidents in the same period in 2008.


In Britain there were 609 anti-Semitic incidents in the first half of 2009, compared with 276 the previous year, it said.


Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the current form of anti-Semitism "is mixed with a new intention of trying to deny the Jewish state the right of self-defence."

The war in Gaza was an overwhelming military victory for Israel but sparked international condemnation, with a UN Human Rights Council report accusing both Israel and Palestinian militants of war crimes.


The Goldstone report demanded that both sides investigate their actions during the 22-day conflict, and Israel is expected to release the results of an internal military investigation into the war later this week.

From watching Defamation, I can say with 100% certainty that this report is nothing but a bunch of nonsense! Jews consider any type of attack on them an attack of anti-Semitism. Someone robs a Jew... the person committing the crime is not after their money, they're actually anti-Semites. You don't get a day off, anti-Semite! Someone complains that they're too loud and causing ruckus, anti-Semite!

Laughable!

That lady who complained to the ADL in Defamation who stated she heard the cop say "When I'm done the Jewish shit" probably had the same ears that the two little girls had when 'listening' to the old men in Poland.

The cop could have said anything;
"When I'm done this ____ shit"
Could have been anything, these people hear what they want and their ears apparently hear things that weren't even said.

That documentary was just too funny, it's a keeper.

Yeah, outrageous.
People do hear what they want (what's that say for the Israeli mind...). I believe the girls even said they were calling them monsters or something...

The ADL could barely even find an incident for the maker to follow up on!

Record year for anti-semitism?
Record year for people learning the truth!
