I would certainly agree that antisemite is something different to semite:-) Just in the way histamine and antihistamine are different.

Exactly what is wrong with saying anti-Jewish when you mean anti-Jewish anyway? Surely it is the best option all round? I would guess that Herr Marr coined the phrase to disguise the fact that he and his organisation were anti-Jewish. Why should we say anti-Jewish feeling is anything else?

I also dispute the that it is a 'technical term'. Why is it technical? Did a scientist discover an anti-Semitic hormone? Is it engineered in some sort of factory? Sorry, but the only technical term for a fear or hatred of Jews, as far as I know, is the medical condition known as Judeophobia!
