THE RESURGENCE OF ANTISEMITISM: A PERSONAL REFLECTION

The current outbreak of antisemitic incidents is the greatest I have witnessed in my lifetime. There are elements that are distinctive to the current political moment and they remain ominous.
Thank you Joe, for all your very thoughtful work on this so well done essay. My computer was broken and just got fixed today, so I am late in my response. Happy New Year.
Brilliant, Joe and so important in our troubled times. I would add that the myth that the Jews are God's chosen people has given many Jews a highly provocative arrogance. And many Non-Jews a reason to hate the Jews. I am in total agreement that the current form of anti -semitic verbiage and action is a political call to arms, comparable to Hitler's. If you want to purify a country for the Aryans or in our nation, the white supremacists, start with condemning the Jews.
Thanks for your explication of this fraught topic. As you know, the anti-semitism of stars like Kanye and Kyrie Irving scare me. Anti-semites have a seat at the table, especially at Trump’s Thanksgiving table.
Just returned home exhausted from a week-long out-of-State trip, I could not get away before I finished reading this article. Thanks, thanks and thanks for writing it.

Joe: Not really so complex. Let's try harder to make it better where we are.
Joe: Our backgrounds are similar and I appreciate your history and analysis of anti-semitism. My passport is also current, but where are we going?

Thanks, Joe for your fine analysis of this very complex issue.
Superb analysis, and perspective on American Society. The challenge is, how to address it.
