A clear connection between anti-semitism and anti-Zionism
A new study published in the UK gives some vital info about two equally evil ideologies:
An unprecedented study of anti-Semitism conducted in Britain showed an “unambiguous” connection between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism.I hope the latter part is a sign that attitudes towards Israel are improving in Britain, though many problems still remain. How to deal with them and put an end to ages old hatred is anyone's guess.
An unprecedented study of anti-Semitism conducted by the Institute for Jewish Policy Research (JPR) in Britain revealed that one in three citizens holds at least one anti-Semitic attitude, and showed an “unambiguous” link between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism, The Times of Israel reported Tuesday.
More than 4,000 members of the public contributed to the study in late 2016 and early this year, making it the largest and most detailed survey of attitudes towards Jews and Israel ever carried out in the country.
Collectively, around 30 percent of the adult British population showed “anti-Semitic attitudes at different intensities,” the report found. Meanwhile, 15 percent of citizens endorsed two or more anti-Semitic statements put to them, while an additional 15 percent agreed with one of them.
But the report also clarified that views, which researchers described as “hardcore anti-Semitic,” are harbored by no more than 2.4 percent of the British public. Around 70 percent of the population have a favorable opinion of Jews and “do not entertain any anti-Semitic ideas or view at all.”
