Why do we have a special word just for people who hate Jews? Why don't Native Americans, who were conquered and in many cases exterminated, get to have their special word too...like "Anti-Amerindianism" or something? Why don't Christians get a special word for people who hate them? Why don't we have articles on Anti-Christianism or Anti-Islamism? How come the Armenians don't get movies made about their extermination by the Turks? Why do only Jews get a special persecution label?

Could it be that this very circumstance, harped on incessantly in the media since 1945, has increased hostility toward Jews on the part of some people who would not have given the matter a second thought otherwise?

Hatred is hatred. There isn't one special variety of hatred that is worse than all other varieties or deserves more press than all others.

But some people seem to think there is...

Where did they get that idea, and what good does it do anyone? None, in my opinion.
