Only the Jewish people out of all peoples on Earth can say that God specifically chose them from all nations to be His particular heritage, and the stock out of whom the Messiah of the world was to come. And precisely because God gave that special grace to the Jews, and they have always been a people religiously apart yet also materially successful, antisemitism has throughout history often been rampant.
In a recent interview outside the University of Toronto, UN Watch’s Hillel Neuer exposed the hypocrisy of anti-Israel activists and traced the deceptive justifications of antisemitism throughout the centuries. “Some signals are obvious — I have seen demonstrators in Toronto recently lifting up 1930s-style Nazi caricatures that dehumanize Jews,” Neuer said, noting the neo-Nazis’ rise. “But today's antisemites are often more clever.” And the Jew-haters couldn’t care less if Muslims or Communists are committing genocide in such countries as Syria, Nigeria, and China. This has nothing to do with human rights. As Israeli officials sometimes satirically comment, “No Jews, no Jews.”

The Jew-haters of 2026 “mask antisemitism in the cloak of virtue — and antisemitism has always done that,” Neuer said. “When society was religious, Jews were accused of having killed God. When science was the reigning virtue in Nazi Germany, Jews were declared the inferior race under racial science. In Soviet Russia, Jews were accused of being fascists, nationalists, and capitalists. In our time, the great virtues are human rights and anti-racism, so it is in their name that people demand the elimination of the Jewish state.” Like all morally condemnable prejudices, antisemitism survives by adopting a veneer of righteousness.

Neuer added:
An easy tell is the double standard: if an activist has not lifted a finger when tens of thousands were killed in Sudan, when a million Uyghurs were placed in camps in China, when thousands were massacred in the span of two days in other conflicts — but the only issue they speak about is Israel — then you have a basis to ask whether they are truly motivated by human rights or by something much darker being masked in the name of virtue.
The Jewish people do not have a track record of launching invasions into other countries, or of terrorism, or of mass treacherous sedition. Hence, we find aggressive antisemites inventing "crimes" that Jews have committed, or cherry-picking cases of individual immoral Jews (there are wicked men among any people), because the antisemites cannot in fact find instances of mass horrors inspired by Judaism, of the sort one can find due to Islam.
To quote Charles Dickens' character, Mr. Riah, "Men say, 'This is a bad Greek, but there are good Greeks. This is a bad Turk, but there are good Turks.' Not so with the Jews. Men find the bad among us easily enough—among what peoples are the bad not easily found?—but they take the worst of us as samples of the best; they take the lowest of us as presentations of the highest; and they say 'All Jews are alike.'”
Antisemitism is not based on the actual threats that the Jewish people as a whole pose to non-Jewish societies. It is not only an irrational but literally a satanic ideology, an evil emotional reaction to the material and spiritual excellence of so many Jews throughout history. Of course, Satan would wish to target Jews specifically, because God gave to them His special revelations and protection. What is particularly inexplicable is that any Christians can be antisemitic, when Jesus Christ, His apostles, and nearly all the writers of the New Testament were Jewish. As Christ said (John 4:22), “Salvation is from the Jews.”
