Germany witnessed probably the biggest anti-Jewish rallies since 1945 during the Gaza war. Meanwhile research centers keep silent, refusing even to discuss such events with Jewish journalists, focusing instead on “Islamophobia.” Why? Are Muslims threatened on German streets by Jewish gangsters screaming, “Death to all Muslims?”The reality is the opposite, yet no one is listening. Scholars are to take a wait and see attitude as to whether Iran is really dangerous.
Germans (and Austrians) prefer to deal with dead Jews. In that, they are really experienced.
I wonder why Europeans are so eager to condemn Islamophobia while doing nothing about anti-Semitism. I think it has a lot to do with the socialist hegemony in European media and academia, which tends to favour radical Islam because of its opposition to individual liberty and capitalism. The stereotype Jew, on the other hand, represents everything the radical left hates about the liberal democracy.
