Antisemitism

hostility, prejudice, or discrimination against Jews
(Redirected from Anti-Semitism)

Antisemitism is the fear, dislike or hatred of Jewish people.[1][2] A synonym of antisemitism is Judeophobia,[3] preferred by those seeing antisemitism as too ambiguous.[3] Antisemitism has a long history.[3] The worst instance of antisemitism in history is the Holocaust,[4] while the most common form of antisemitism is conspiracy theories.[5][6]

The adjective of antisemitism is antisemitic. Those who hold antisemitic views are called antisemites.[7]

Origin

change

As per American historian Deborah Lipstadt, antisemitism was coined by German nationalist Wilhelm Marr in 1881 to describe the widespread bias against Jews in German society. Semantically, the term covers Jews who practice Judaism, Jews who have converted to Christianity, and those who have Jewish ancestry.[8]

The term is sometimes spelled as anti-Semitism, but such spelling is controversial, because some historians believe that there is no such ideology as "Semitism"[8] while the concept "Semitic race" came from the scientific racism promoted by those biased against Jews.[8]

Antisemitism[1] is extremely common in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).[2] In 2011, the Pew Research Center polled a significant number of Middle Eastern countries' citizens, where Muslims are the majority. Most of the interviewees were hostile to Jews. Only 2% of Egyptians, 3% of Lebanese Muslims and 2% of Jordanians reported feeling good about Jews.[9] Some scholars believe that mass media have played a significant role in such phenomenon.[10][11] Further data are presented as follows.

The Holocaust was a genocide[17] committed by Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945 during World War II. It was known as the Final Solution. The Nazis' plan was to rid Europe of Jews. They succeeded in killing up to at least 6,000,000 Jews – 67% of European Jews back then.[4] The planning of the Holocaust was rooted in antisemitism.[4][18]

In a 2013 survey of 5,847 Jews in Europe, 76% thought that antisemitism had increased in the previous five years, while 29% had thought about moving countries as they felt unsafe.[19] A 2023 ADL survey found that as many as one-third of Western Europeans believed in stereotypes of Jews. This was reportedly worse in some Eastern European countries, particularly Hungary (37%), Poland (35%) and Russia (26%).[20] In Eastern Europe, the level of antisemitism is found to be high.[21] The cause of persistent antisemitism in Europe is under debate.[22][23]

Overview

change

Ireland has been predominantly Catholic throughout history.[25] Just as other Catholic countries, antisemitism is deep-rooted in Ireland.[25]

Modern period

change

As per specialized historians, Irish Catholics played an active role in the Catholic Spanish Inquisition's persecution of Jews (1478–1834),[26] killing as many as 300,000 Jews over false charges of "crypto-Judaism",[27][28] a charge slapped on Jews who were forcibly converted to Christianity under Catholic Spanish rule.[27][28]

20th century

change

Throughout the 1930s and 1940s, pro-Nazi sentiment was common among the Irish due to their dislike of the United Kingdom,[29] which was fighting Nazi Germany.[29]

In July 1940, the Irish Republican Army (IRA) praised Nazi Germany as the "friends and liberators of the Irish people" in a statement, with little to no opposition from the Irish public.[29][30] Meanwhile, the IRA worked with Nazi spies to plot attacks on British troops in Northern Ireland[29][30] and circulated materials accusing Éamon de Valera's neutral Irish government of being owned by "Jews and Freemasons".[29][30]

As per declassified MI5 documents, IRA leading figures Seán Russell and James O'Donovan – both veterans of the Irish War of Independence – were the main Irish contacts with Nazi Germany.[29][30] They got Nazi weapons, plotted joint attacks on British troops and discussed with Hitler a possible German invasion of Northern Ireland to facilitate Irish "reunification".[29][30]

As per Kurt Haller, an anti-Nazi German diplomat who testified in the Nuremberg Trials,[30]

James O'Donovan [...] asked for German support for the occupation of Northern Ireland [. ...] seemed most interested in obtaining delivery of weapons, ammunition and explosives.

As per Erwin von Lahousen, a Nazi German general who also testified,[30]

Frank Ryan[31] suggest that the German invasion of Britain would be an opportune moment for the seizure of Northern Ireland [. ...] Ryan had told [Edmund] Veesenmayer[32] that [Éamon] de Valera would support [...] provided he considered it a legitimate risk to take.

After Adolf Hitler's death on April 30, 1945, Éamon de Valera, the Prime Minister of Ireland, mourned the death of Hitler[29][33] with backing from the Irish parliament.[29][33] De Valera also denied reports of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp as "anti-national propaganda",[33][34] reportedly out of refusal to acknowledge that the Jews could have suffered more than the Irish.[33][34]

Further information: Disinformation, Conspiracy theory, and African Americans § History

Since 2013,[35][36] a baseless theory, which claims that "Irish slaves" existed in 17th century North America before the arrival of African slaves, has been made popular by Neo-Nazis and Holocaust deniers[35][36] in both Ireland and the United States.[35][36] The theory is sometimes called the "Irish slaves myth". The myth reportedly originated from the book To Hell Or Barbados: The Ethnic Cleansing of Ireland written by Irish journalist Seán O'Callaghan (1918–2000)[35][37] and published by The O'Brien Press in Dublin, Ireland.[37]

The myth has been widely condemned by scholars as a far-right conspiracy theory downplaying the suffering of African Americans in history,[35][36] who were enslaved until 1865, segregated until 1965 and systemically discriminated against until now.[38] Despite To Hell Or Barbados: The Ethnic Cleansing of Ireland promoting the widely condemned far-right myth, the book is still on sale in the Sinn Féin Bookshop[39] run by the Irish nationalist Sinn Féin party.[39][40]

In spring 2024, antisemitism in Ireland reportedly worsened with the escalation of the Israel–Hamas war, where antisemites felt justified to harass Jews under the guise of supporting Palestine, and some Irish Jewish community leaders were doubtful if Ireland was still safe[41] for the approximately 2,700 Jews – 0.054% of the 2023 Irish population[42] – in Ireland. In November 2024, it was revealed that textbooks teaching that

were widely circulated in Irish schools[43] and shaping children's mind.[43] The findings were confirmed by the European Jewish Congress (EJC).[44] Meanwhile, the Government of Ireland has not responded to the matter, nor have any strong reactions been seen from the Irish public.[43]

From 1478 to 1834, the Catholic Spanish Empire unleashed a systematic campaign of persecution of Jews, historically known as the Spanish Inquisition,[27][28] due to its racist belief that Jews who converted to Catholicism (conversos) were mostly faking as Christians,[27][28] including those forcibly converted following the Alhambra Decree, or the Edict of Expulsion.[27][49] As many as 300,000 Jews under Catholic Spanish rule were killed over false charges of "crypto-Judaism",[27][28] a charge slapped on Jews who were forcibly converted.[27][28]

For the past decade, movements within Spain have emerged to rewrite the history of the Spanish Inquisition.[50] Members of the movements released a series of books, films, TV programs and mobile exhibitions[50] to beautify the Inquisition-associated Spanish history.[50]

In 2023, an ADL poll found that 26% of Spain's population held extensive antisemitic beliefs,[51] followed by Belgium (24%), France (17%), Germany (12%) and the UK (10%).[51]

In 2024, Spanish Jews make up 0.093% of Spain's population of 48,370,000. In April, the Observatory for Religious Freedom and Conscience found that at least 36 attacks had happened to Spanish Jews between 7 October 2023 and 19 April 2024, about six attacks per month.[52] In July, the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights found that 78% of Spanish Jews saw antisemitism as a big problem in Spain.[53]

Jews have been living in France since the Roman times as one of the oldest diasporas in Europe. As France became Christianized in the late antiquity, Christian antisemitism shaped the region's culture.[54]

Under the Germanic Frankish Merovingian dynasty between the 5th and 8th century, Jews were banned from working as public servants.[54] A succession of ecumenical councils also banned Jews from socializing with Christians and observing the shabbat over the unfounded fear that Judaism (the Jewish ethnoreligion) would influence Christians.[54]

Systematic persecutions of Jews intensified in the 11th century under the rule of the House of Capet, when the King of France Robert the Pious attempted to kill all Jews who rejected Christian conversion.[54][55] Jews across the France were assaulted, tortured or burned at stakes.[54][55] The persecutions coincided with the destruction of the original Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem by the Fatimid Caliph Al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah in 1009, which was exploited by the French Benedictine monk Rodulfus Glaber to spread rumors about Jewish involvement to add fuel to the fire.[56]

When the First Crusade happened in 1096, Jews were massacred by the crusaders across the Kingdom of France,[55][56] The events were seen by some historians as genocidal massacres, the first batch in a series of which ultimately peaked in the Holocaust.[57] The massacres all happened with the Roman Catholic Church's tacit approval.[56][57]

Between the 1182 and 1394, at least 13 expulsions of Jews were ordered by the French monarchy,[58] during which dozens of Black Death-associated massacres of Jews happened.[59]

Modern period

change

Between the 15th century and 18th century, antisemitism in France waxed and waned.[60] Voltaire (1694–1778), a famous French philosopher, held biases against Jews that contributed to the legitimization of modern antisemitism in Western academia.[61][62] One of the instances of Voltaire's vocal antisemitism was his insertion of an insult into his Dictionnaire philosophique for Jewish readers:[61]

You are calculating animals; try to be thinking animals.

Despite Voltaire's vocal antisemitism, he was regarded as the champion of Enlightenment by Western leftists.[62]

"I accuse...!" (J'accuse...!), open letter published on 13 January 1898 in the newspaper L'Aurore by French writer Émile Zola, accusing the French president Félix Faure of anti-Semitism and unlawful jailing of Alfred Dreyfus, pointing out judicial errors and lack of serious evidence.

Antisemitism was widespread in 19th century France.[54] It was present across the political spectrum, with ancient stereotypes being phrased differently and perpetuated by their respective audience.[63] On both sides of the spectrum, Jews were targeted for their otherness, observance of Judaism and alleged lack of loyalty or assimilation.[63]

Among the French far left, Jews were accused of being regressive agents of capitalism exploiting the French proletariat.[63] Among the French far right, Jews were accused of being subversive agents of communism undermining the traditional Catholic culture.[63] Meanwhile, both the far left and far right saw Jews as undesirable under French nationalism, which prioritized national unity over minority existence.[63][64]

Between 1882 and 1885, three antisemitic publications existed in France: L'Anti-Juif, L'Anti-Sémitique, and Le Péril sociale.[54] In 1886, French politician Edouard Drumont published the 1,200-page tract La France juive ("Jewish France"), accusing Jews of masterminding capitalism, and calling for a race war between non-Jewish "Aryans" and Jewish "Semites". The tract was very popular in France and reprinted for 140 times within the first two years of publication.[61]

The wave of antisemitism peaked in the deeply divisive 1894 Dreyfus affair, when Alfred Dreyfus, an Alsatian Jewish artillery officer, was falsely convicted of treason,[64] who was not vindicated until 1906.[63][64]

World War II

On 22 June 1940, France surrendered to Nazi Germany upon military defeat and was partitioned into the German-occupied zone, Italian-occupied zone and Vichy France – a rump state in southern France managed by pro-Nazi French collaborators.[65] Under Vichy France's leaders Philippe Pétain and Pierre Laval, the Statut des Juifs ("Jewish Statute") – modelled after the Nazi German Nuremberg Laws – was passed between October 1940 and June 1941 to ban Jews from all jobs.[65]

Just as in Nazi Germany, such legal persecution escalated to the deportation of Jews to extermination camps,[65] one of the worst instances of which was the Vel' d'Hiv Roundup on 16–17 July 1942 voluntarily conducted by the Vichy French police.[65] In total, 77,000 (33%) Jews living in France were killed in extermination camps.[4][65]

Antisemitism in post-war France mainly took the form of Holocaust denial and radical anti-Zionism. Pierre Guillaume, an ultra-left activist deemed an "anarcho-Marxist", published books denying the Holocaust as a "distraction from class struggle playing into the hands of Zionism and Stalinism."[66]

Guillaume's views were co-opted by the French far right,[66] sharing similar radical anti-Zionism, comparing the Holocaust to the Judean massacres of the Canaanites[66] or the Native American genocide,[67] and accusing Jews of exploiting the Holocaust to extort compensations from European countries.[68]

A number of influential French Holocaust deniers emerged, such as Claude Autant-Lara,[67] Maurice Bardèche,[68] Louis-Ferdinand Céline,[69] Dieudonné M'bala M'bala[70] and Jean-François Jalkh.[71]

Antisemitism is still common in 21st century France,[72] with Jews and synagogues regularly attacked.[72] A report by Tel Aviv University and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) found a spike in antisemitic incidents from 436 in 2022 to 1,676 in 2023, 74% of which happened following 7 October 2023.[73] As per the Statista, 57.4% of 2023 antisemitic incidents happened in Paris.[74]

One of the most serious antisemitic incidents involved a 12-year-old Jewish girl being gang-raped by several boys hurling antisemitic insults and death threats.[75] Some French Jews reported the need to adopt fake names and wear keffiyehs to pretend as Muslims in order to minimize danger.[76]

58% of the population[12] of Armenia[78][79] (a Caucassian country allied with Russia,[80] China,[81] Iran[82] and Syria under Bashar al-Assad[83] who killed over 400,000 Syrians[84][85]) are found to be hostile to Jews, including 62% of those aged 18–34. The percentages are the highest in Eastern Europe, making Armenia statistically the most antisemitic Eastern European country.[12] Garegin Nzhdeh (1886–1955), an Armenian nationalist who recruited thousands of Armenians to fight for Nazi Germany, is still popular among Armenians.[86][87]

20th century

change

From the 1930s through the Holocaust, Armenian-American media, including but not limited to the Hairenik,[88][89] fully backed Adolf Hitler and defended the Holocaust as a "necessary surgical operation" by demonizing Jews as "poisonous elements",[88][89] while 20,000 Armenian Nazi volunteers[89][90] hunted for Jews and other "undesirables" on behalf of the Nazi German army.[89][91]

Despite such history, hundreds of statues have been erected across Armenia in honor of Garegin Nzhdeh.[86][87] Meanwhile, the only synagogue in Armenia's capital Yerevan was attacked four times in a row between 7 October 2023 and 11 June 2024.[92] Members of the Marxist-Leninist militant[77] front Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia[93] (ASALA) claimed responsibility for the attacks, some of which involved the synagogue being set on fire.[94]

A 2017 survey showed that 14% of Americans were hostile to Jews.[95] Since the October 7 massacre, antisemitism has surged in America and Europe, especially on college campuses.[96][97] Such antisemitism has caused thousands of Jewish students to get attacked over their identity.[96][97]

2020s

change

In August 2024, the advocacy group Combat Antisemitism Movement (CAM) did a poll which found that around 3,500,000 American Jews had faced antisemitism since the October 7 massacre in 2023. 1,075 American Jews were asked, 28% of whom said that they, often, were told that "Jews care too much about money", 25% were told that "Jews control the world" and 13% were told that "the Holocaust did not happen" or its "severity has been exaggerated".[98][99]

Meanwhile, the FBI released crime statistics illustrating that antisemitic incidents constituted 68% of all religion-based hate crimes in 2023, a 63% rise compared to 2022.[100]

A follow-up study between May and October 2024 found that American Jews faced rising discrimination in job search, with American Jews having to make 24% more applications to receive the same amount of favorable first responses as Western European Americans, while Israeli Americans having to make 39% more applications to receive the same amount of such.[101][102] In December 2024, the University of Michigan fired its DEI[103] director for making antisemitic remarks, including "the university is controlled by wealthy Jews"[1] and "we don’t work with Jews. They are wealthy and privileged..." according to documents obtained by the CNN.[104]

Grant on December 17, 1862, during the Vicksburg Campaign, that took place during the American Civil War. The order expelled all Jews from Grant's military district, comprising areas of Tennessee, Mississippi, and Kentucky. Grant issued the order in an effort to reduce Union military corruption, and stop an illicit trade of Southern cotton, which Grant thought was being run "mostly by Jews and other unprincipled traders."[279][better source needed]

At Holly Springs, Mississippi, Grant's Union Army supply depot, Jewish persons were rounded up and forced to leave the city by foot. On December 20, 1862, three days after Grant's order, Confederate Major General Earl Van Dorn's Confederate Army raided Holly Springs, that prevented many Jewish persons from potential expulsion. Although delayed by Van Dorn's raid, Grant's order was fully implemented at Paducah, Kentucky. Thirty Jewish families were expelled and roughly treated from the city.[source?]

Jewish community leaders protested, and there was an outcry by members of Congress and the press; President Abraham Lincoln countermanded the General Order on January 4, 1863. Grant claimed during his 1868 Presidential campaign that he had issued the order without prejudice against Jews as a way to address a problem that "certain Jews had caused".[280][better source needed]

Croatian Wikipedia

See the main article: Croatian Wikipedia

Between 2009 and 2021, Croatian Wikipedia was controlled by a group of far-right administrators who promoted Holocaust denial by censoring[287] the war crimes of the pro-Nazi Ustaše-ruled Independent State of Croatia (NDH)[292] and blocking dozens of rule-abiding users for trying to remove the false content.[287]

Željko Jovanović, the Minister of Science of Croatia back then, also advised against the use of the Croatian Wikipedia.[293] The most serious violation by the far-right administrators was their anti-historical designation of the Jasenovac concentration camp, in which 77,000–99,000 were killed,[294] as a "collection camp".[287] Their Holocaust denial was condemned by scholars, officials, advocacy groups and media critics.[287]

Following a year-long investigation (2020–21) by the Wikimedia Foundation, several complicit users and administrators were either banned or demoted, with one of the administrators found to have consolidated his or her power with 80 sockpuppet accounts.[295]

English Wikipedia

change
See the main article: English Wikipedia

In the 57-page article Wikipedia’s Intentional Distortion of the History of the Holocaust[296] published in The Journal of Holocaust Research, Prof. Jan Grabowski and Dr. Shira Klein reported to have found widespread distortions of the Polish Holocaust history on the English Wikipedia,[288][296] which involved the exaggeration[288][296] of Jewish collaboration with Nazi/Soviet occupiers, invention of Jewish "atrocities" against Poles, downplaying of Polish collaboration with Nazi/Soviet occupiers and blaming Jews for their own suffering in the Holocaust.[288][296]

Prof. Grabowski and Dr. Klein also criticized English Wikipedia's administrators and Wikimedia Foundation's lack of will to handle,[288][296] leaving the site vulnerable to state-sponsored disinformation:

Wikipedia’s administrators have largely failed to uphold Wikipedia’s policies [. ...] unable to deal with the issue of persistent distortion [...] Wikipedia’s articles [...] have become a hub of misinformation and antisemitic canards.

On another occasion, Prof. Grabowski said,[288]

As a historian, I was aware [...] of various distortions [...] of the Holocaust on Wikipedia. What I found shocking, was the sheer scale [...] and the small number of individuals needed to distort the history of one of the greatest tragedies in the history of humanity.

In 2024, independent journalist investigations uncovered a large-scale off-site canvassing campaign to rewrite Jewish history and reshape the narrative surrounding the Israel–Palestine conflict, which involved 40 accounts having made at least 2,000,000 edits to over 10,000 Jewish-related articles.[297]

The off-site canvassing campaign was coordinated by an 8,000-member Tech for Palestine Discord channel,[297] where the organizers provided the participants in-depth training (e.g. strategy planning sessions, group audio "office hour" chats)[297] on getting used to Wikipedia's site operation, assigning participants (in groups of 2~3) to edit hundreds of articles in rotation[297] and gaming the rules to block others from correcting them.[297]

Reported examples of their revisionist[298] edits include[297]

  • Removal of "Land of Israel" from the origin of Jews in Jewish-related articles
  • Removal of mentions of 16th century Jewish immigration to Israel in Jewish-related articles
  • Removal of mentions of Hamas' 1988 charter which involved the incitement to mass murder of Jews
  • Removal of mentions of the Palestinian Grand Mufti of Jerusalem's alliance with Hitler[299][300] in Holocaust-related articles
  • Redefinition of Jews as an "ethnoreligious group and cultural community" from "ethnoreligious group and nation from the Levant" in Jewish-related articles

On 12 December 2024, English Wikipedia's arbitration committee announced that two editors[301] had been banned indefinitely for off-site canvassing[297][301] and "encouraging other users to game the extended confirmed restriction and engage in disruptive editing."[301] Another three editors have also been slapped with sanctions for similar reasons.[301]
