Removed "sharp decline"

I removed "there was a sharp decline in the number of crimes with an Anti-semitic motive between 2009 and 2010", because the cited text also says "a sharp increase in the number of crimes with an antisemitic motive reported to the police is observed between 2008 and 2009". In matter of fact the number of reported crimes was 2008: 159 2009: 250 and 2010: 161. page 46. Christian75 (talk) 09:43, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hoax in article presented as fact

The article says "A Swedish Jewish woman with a Star of David necklace was severely beaten while walking in a neighborhood with a high number of Muslims.".

However, the event was later confirmed as a hoax:

"False beating spread on the Net" (in swedish) and
"No, the beating of the Swedish female Jew did not happen" (also in swedish).

As the event clearly did not happen, it should be removed. Frederico1234 (talk) 12:27, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Development since 2000

In the paragraph called "Development since 2000", the idea that 15% of the population agree with the statement "the jews have too much influence in the world" is used to indicate an increase in anti-semitism. But this statement has nothing to do with anti-semitism unless you want it to. With Israel being more or less immune to UN resolutions due to US veto rights, the statement is simply an accurate description of the state of the world, albeit with the word 'jews' used instead of Israel. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.230.187.96 (talk) 03:35, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

What about the progressive-left leaning liberals(Greens) e.g. Greta Thunberg

Regardless if Germany, Switzerland or USA, Thunberg is considered anti-semitic now:Highly decorated news papers are claiming this: "La triste evoluzione di Greta, in marcia con gli islamisti", Giulio Meotti,10.Oktober 2024https://www.ilfoglio.it/politica/2024/10/10/news/la-triste-evoluzione-di-greta-in-marcia-con-gli-islamisti-7030630

____________________________________________________

Italian Daily Newspaper Il Foglio:Original(italian)"Una foto scattata a Berlino mostra quanto Greta si sia radicalizzata. Nell’anniversario del massacro del 7 ottobre, Greta ha posato per i selfie con gli odiatori degli ebrei. Si era recata a Berlino per prendere parte a una delle più grandi manifestazioni anti israeliane in Europa. I partecipanti alla marcia hanno attaccato gli agenti di polizia e gridato slogan vietati. Ora circola una foto in particolare in cui Greta posa con “Abdallahxbln”, come si fa chiamare su Instagram, e ripreso con il dito alzato degli islamisti. L’appello alla marcia dell’odio a cui ha partecipato Greta glorifica il terrorismo palestinese come “resistenza” e chiede la liberazione “totale”, ovvero la fine di Israele. La foto di Greta è stata condivisa dall’attivista anti israeliano Salah Said, che nel tempo libero si mobilita contro lo stato ebraico online e per le strade. E diffonde canali che flirtano con Hamas."

English translation:"A photo taken in Berlin shows how radicalized Greta has become. On the anniversary of the October 7 massacre, Greta posed for selfie with Jew haters. She had traveled to Berlin to take part in one of the largest anti-Israel demonstrations in Europe. Participants in the march attacked police officers and shouted banned slogans. Now one particular photo is circulating in which Greta poses with "Abdallahxbln," as he calls himself on Instagram, and filmed with the raised finger of Islamists. The call for the march of hate in which Greta participated glorifies Palestinian terrorism as "resistance" and calls for "total" liberation, i.e., the end of Israel. Greta's photo was shared by anti Israeli Salah Said, who in his spare time mobilizes against the Jewish state Jew online and in the streets. And he spreads channels flirting with Hamas."

Despite Israel being a global leader in tackling climate disasters and rushing to aid in crises worldwide, Greta sides with their homicidal terrorist enemies,” founder Liora Rez said in a statement.“Her actions speak louder than her words. She claims to care about the future of humanity but Greta’s hypocrisy is on full display as she’s been active in championing Hamas leaders who openly call for genocide.”Thunberg’s arrest at Copenhagen University was just her latest appearance at an anti-Israel demonstration, a cause she’s taken up in full force since Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack.“We demand that the Stockholm University administration cut all ties, agreements and collaborations with the genocidal, apartheid state of Israel,” she wrote after attending a demonstration at Stockholm University in May, where she was also carried away by police.She joined pro-Palestinians just days after Oct. 7, posting a photo of herself holding a sign reading “Stand with Gaza” — alongside a toy octopus, which some read as an allusion to the Nazis’ antisemitic propaganda visualizing Judaism’s supposed network of control over the world.Thunberg — who is autistic — later removed the photo and claimed she was “completely unaware” of the historical use of antisemitic octopus imagery and clarified she meant for it to represent her emotions.“The toy in the picture is a tool often used by autistic people as a way to communicate feelings,” she said."

Ob ihr deshalb die Einreise verweigert werden sollte, mögen Juristen entscheiden.Weniger schwierig ist die Entscheidung, zwischen Thunberg-Anmaßung und Maß-und-Mitte-Courage zu wählen. Aus Halle sei der Aktivistin deshalb zugerufen: Thunberg war und ist kein Vorbild."English translation:""Because the Swede is no longer just passed around as a climate policy saint but is also revered on the streets of Berlin as a sympathizer of Jew-haters. Whether she should therefore be refused entry should be denied entry for this reason.Less difficult is the decision to choose between Thunberg's presumptuousness and a measured and middle-of-the-road approach. From Halle, the activist is therefore to the activist: Thunberg was and is no role model."

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Austrians "Falter", 20.10.2023 ,Matthias Dusini https://www.falter.at/maily/20231020/how-dare-youGerman: "Diesmal hat sich Greta Thunberg an der falschen Abzweigung festgeklebt. Die schwedische Ikone des Klima-Aktivismus veröffentlichte auf Instagram einen Beitrag, in dem sie zur Solidarität mit Palästina und Gaza aufruft. Thunberg hält ein "Stand With Gaza"-Schild in die Höhe, eine Kollegin kombiniert "Climate Justice" mit den Farben der palästinensischen Flagge.Thunbergs Wortmeldung reiht sich in eine Abfolge beschämender Äußerungen ein. Zahlreiche Aktivist:innen und Intellektuelle, darunter der ehemalige griechische Finanzminister Yanis Varoufakis, fanden keine Worte des Bedauerns für die Pogrome der Hamas am 7. Oktober im Süden Israels. Sie trauern nicht um die Toten und deren Familien, sondern wettern gegen "zionistischen Siedlerkolonialismus". Ein Milieu, das Freiheit und Menschenrechte propagiert, verhöhnt die Opfer eines Massenmords. Und gibt so jenen Konservativen Recht, die vor linkem Antisemitismus warnen. In meinem aktuellen Aufmacher für das FALTER-Feuilleton habe ich versucht, die historischen Hintergründe dieser Kontroverse darzulegen."English translation:"This time Greta Thunberg got stuck at the wrong junction. stuck to the wrong fork. The Swedish icon of climate activism published a post on Instagram a post on Instagram in which she calls for solidarity with Palestine and Gaza. Thunberg holds up a "Stand With Gaza" sign. a colleague combines "Climate Justice" with the colors of the Palestinian flag. the colors of the Palestinian flag.Thunberg's statement is part of a sequence of shameful statements. Numerous activists and intellectuals, including the former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis, found no words of regret for the Hamas pogroms in southern Israel on October 7. They do not mourn the dead and theirfamilies, but railed against "Zionist settler colonialism". A milieu that propagates freedom and human rights mocks the victims of mass murder. victims of mass murder. And thus proves right those conservatives who warn against left-wing anti-Semitism. In my current lead article for the FALTER feuilleton, I have tried to explain the historical background to this controversy."
