So says the Telegraph headline on page 2.
The on-line is slightly different...but that we are returning to the 1930s with our perception of Jewish folk

Is this true and, given that the profile of AB is probably not that much different to UK society at large, which half of ABers ascribe to these views?

Come to think about it, people who are jewish are probably afforded more leeway than a lot of other groups. They are probably decendants from recent immigrants and have a different religion and strange eating habits and customs than the indigenous people of the UK. But you do not get the same rallies against them or newspapers attacking them or posts on AB about pandering.
I can understand why Muslims would not like Jews but why are they not liked in other countries? They get on with their lives and Religion, without disrespecting other Faiths, without trying to convert anyone to Judaism, without expecting others to conform or change their way of thinking as it 'offends them'. Can anyone explain?
No idea if this is true or not, retrochic, but one possible answer is that the very act of keeping themselves to themselves, getting on with their lives etc, allows people to draw the impression of Jews as a closed society. And as soon as that happens, it becomes fertile breeding ground for conspiracy theories or distrust. "They must be hiding something", people think. No doubt the same people who'd complain if the Jewish community did start to try and be more active/ imposing. With some people, I guess, you can't win.
More concretely, in the past, some of the larger banking organisations were first created by Jewish people (in particular, the Rothschild family). And, again, if you control, or are perceived to control the money then it just becomes ripe for conspiracy theories and distrust.

Well, what one admits in public is often quite different to what one thinks and sometimes says in public.
My feeling is that of a wave of anti-Semitsm on the UK and certainly across Europe, but particularly Germany.
Anecdotal i appreciate, but gleaned from friends and associates from all parts of Europe (well nearly all.)

Here's an article by a well-known racist bigot and knuckle-dragger (and for those reasons one of my personal heroes). http://
