I've said many a time that there's without a doubt antisemitism on both sides of the political spectrum but my synagogue doesn't hire armed guards to be on premises every time we have services because we're worried about crazed Rashida Tlaib supporters.

My daughter's Hebrew school was vandalized by pro Palestinian protesters and I know that in our community threats from that side of the spectrum have been out overwhelming security concern. I think that it's a little bit of the opposite of what you are saying where there is more anti semitism 1/2

I honestly don't think partisanship is a very good framework for understanding antisemitism. Anti-Jewish ideas are foundational to Western civilization. They predate American political parties by centuries. Viewing them through the lens of American politics is a mistake.

No Jews, for any reason, should ever be targeted or harassed or discriminated against simply because they are Jews. You wouldn’t do that to a Presbyterian, neither should you do that to a Jew.
