I wonder what the numbers are for anti-Jewish incidents

[–] KryptonNerd 18 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I think that would be a harder number to get, or at least verify, because of (and I say this as a Jew) Israel's warping of the definition of antisemitism.

I mean, it's not like "anti-Muslim and anti-Palestinian incidents" might not be warped. I guess for a representative comparison you'd need some third party to set some guidelines and verify the incidents. But it's not likely to happen.
