The spike in Jew-hatred is the poison fruit of the Democrat’s anti-Jewish rhetoric and incitement.

Jews Top Target of Hate Crimes in 2019
Anti-Semitic incidents up 50 percent in five years, FBI says
American Jews were the religious group most targeted by hate crimes in 2019, the FBI reported Monday, facing more than 60 percent of anti-religious bias incidents.
The number of anti-Semitic hate-crime incidents rose 14 percent in 2019, data from the bureau’s annual hate-crime statistical report show, with police departments reporting 953 events and 1,032 victims. That is 82 more incidents than in 2018, continuing a rising trend over the past half decade.
Jews were in fact a leading target of hate crimes overall, regardless of motivation. In absolute terms, only more black Americans were victimized; on a per capita basis, only gay men and trans people were more likely to be targeted, a Washington Free Beacon analysis found.
The shocking increase in reported bias incidents sums up a year in which a high-profile synagogue shooting and a spate of anti-Semitic violence in New York City took place. The latest figures suggest that anti-Jewish bias is not an isolated phenomenon but a widespread and growing threat to Americans’ safety.
Jewish leaders decried the uptick, calling for greater vigilance against anti-Semitism.
“Once again, the FBI hate crime statistics confirm what the Jewish community knows all too well: that violent antisemitism is a daily reality,” Joel Rubin, the executive director of the American Jewish Congress, told the Free Beacon. “At the American Jewish Congress we have repeatedly called out rhetoric from both the left and the right that contributes to normalizing hate. Public officials have a special obligation to ensure that their statements and positions inhibit rather than inflame radicals.”
“Anti-Jewish hate crimes have been the most prevalent type of anti-religious hate-based crimes going as far back (1996) as the FBI has public figures on hate crimes,” Republican Jewish Coalition communications director Neil Strauss told the Free Beacon. “Antisemitism isn’t a political issue and doesn’t emanate from one side of the political divide in particular. That is why the RJC has been at the forefront in calling out antisemitism on the left and the right. Jewish people, like all Americans, deserve to live without fear. We stand committed to making that possible.”
The number of Jewish hate crime victims is particularly shocking in the context of Jews’ small share of the population—less than 2 percent, according to the Pew Research Center. Out of every 100,000 Jews, 16 were victims last year, outpacing all but gay men (1.1 percent of the population) and trans people (0.3 percent).

Hatred stems from political rhetoric. Hmm, where have I heard that before?

The Jewish people are easier to pick on because they make up a smaller portion of the population. Hitler took full advantage of that. What’s horrible is Jews are helping and voting for their enemies as are many humanists that think they are Christians. Christians are the most persecuted people on the planet so we can emphasize with Jewish targets of hate.

Whites are the majority population and they are probably targeted as often as Jews. The problem is that they refuse to categorize crimes against whites as hate crimes, but these crimes can be seen in the race crime data. The numbers are significant, but there is a lot of pressure being exerted culturally to ignore these attacks because whites have been labeled as the problem group. I think the war is on Western people, including Jews, Christians and whites generally (European people).

If statistics from Eurapia are any indication as f’ing muslums become a greater part of the polity of the USA violence against Jews by f’ing muslums will only be increasing at an increasing rate. Welcome to the new balkanized future of the dieverse United States of Slag, a country that’s almost a democracy!

Its those g*dd*m West Bank settlements. When they’re not scapegoating the Nazis and Muslims for their problems, Jews always bring the hatred upon themselves.
Not to worry, Biden will eradicate antisemitism once he remembers what it is.

And something tells me that if you look at where these incident occurred they were almost all in the inner cities.

The liberal Jews have been afflicted with the Stockholm Syndrome. Even if the truth is presented to them they will still vote for the antisemitic Democrat party.

Of course, the attacks on Jews are real and important to acknowledge. They don’t even mention hate crimes committed by Muslims and they seek to give the impression that Muslims are a significant victim group. It’s outrageous. They almost never call attacks on whites “hate crimes”, yet as I recall there were hundreds of thousands of racial attacks on whites in 2018 (and every year). Many (probably most) of these are hate crimes, but they won’t admit it. The other thing is that they count Hispanic perps as whites (no offense intended to Hispanics) in order to inflate the number of white perps. What I think we see in these numbers (or lack of numbers) is the result of their war on Western civilization.
