In fact the Far-Right is their least threat:

/// CST recorded 1,652 antisemitic incidents last year across the UK, of which just 5 per cent showed clear evidence of far-right motivation. A survey of 16,500 Jews in 12 member states of the EU in 2018 (the biggest survey of Jewish people ever conducted worldwide) is more revealing. The survey recorded the most frequently mentioned categories of perpetrators of the most serious incidents of antisemitic harassment experienced by the respondents as follows: someone they did not know (31 per cent); someone with an extremist Muslim view (30 per cent); someone with a left-wing political view (21 per cent); a colleague from work or school/college (16 per cent); an acquaintance or friend (15 per cent); and someone with a right-wing political view (13 per cent). ///

I think your missing my point, Khandro. I’m sure lots of things are a threat to the Jewish and Jewish religion way of life but I’m not sure anyone can accurately claim which is top. Maybe apart from a paper designed to appeal to Jews. Mmm?
Does somebody have to actually live with you ?
Ah, the insults have started I see.
I am surprised they took that long! Serial controversialist. Lol!
Surely the far right carry a strain of antisemitism as bad as anything from other sources.
You have our friend Mr Benjamin wading into George Soros in a way that would shame the worst in the Labour Party. And claiming that although he’s “sorry” about the Holocaust he couldn’t give a ****.
So it seems odd of them to rank these various threats in this way.
Actually I hadn’t read the report when I posted become. The report doesn’t in fact say “anti semitism, Islamist extremism” but merely “Islamist extremism” or words to that effect.
It stands to reason that Islam's hatred of the Jews is a bigger threat. It goes back way before the rise of Nazism.
Jewish people have been disliked for many centuries. Personally I don’t think they are any different from anyone else. Love is stronger than hate, but hate hurts the hater and The hated.

A fair-minded and inquisitive person might care to judge a
social media free-speech advocate on his actual content rather than slime-ball misrepresentations of it.

PS: who thinks Jess Phillips is a...?
(Let's hope she's not on tonight's "This Week")
That Ichkeria thinks Carl Benjamin is far-right tells you how much he knows about him.
Must get all his vast knowledge of politics from Buzzfeed.
She certainly is, ve. They had another beauty as a stand-in for Phillips.
She was getting carried away with her scripted smear until Batten mentioned criminal libel.

Then perhaps your Master should step in and tell you to cease dishing them out Zacs?
