      An article that describes the uptick in hate crimes but doesn't attribute it to the religion that is bothered the most by Jews... that obviously not Christianityhttps://twitter.com/AlanTonelson/status/1081291958780416000 …

      Thanks again, Roy, but, to be fair, there's much violent #antisemitic hatred in the US that exists outside the #Muslim population as well - as the #Pittsburghsynagogue attack made clear. #hatecrimes #antisemitism

      I grew up in America and working-class neighborhood and I have to say I only heard anything against the Jews on a handful of occasions.... you can't ascribe to a one-off a gentle indictment of a population outside of Muslims

      This is my impression from reading the news that the increase is substantially based on an increasing and more radicalized Muslim population

      Yet the history and the last few decades of #FBI data provide no support for this impression: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2018/10/brief-history-anti-semitic-violence-america/574228/ … & https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/statistics-on-religious-hate-crimes … #hatecrimes #antisemitism

          I see a table for Victims, etc, Incidents...where's the table on perpetrators? In Europe, the rise of incidents in almost 100% due to radicalized Muslims.

          largest known perpetrator group for both years was white Americans, but only accounted for 14% of total in '14 and 17% in '15. Who committed the other offenses? we don’t know. FBI has no info re the race of offenders in 513 of the 635 crimes in '14, or 81% of the offenses.

          2. #Muslims be a growing percentage of the declining overall number of #antisemitic haters? Their overall US population was clearly smaller in the mid-90s, yet even more #hatecrimes were committed annually back then.

          So, then, whites are less anti-semitic than ever and the increase in the 21st century is due to the increasing presence of Muslim radicals

          My last: I don't see any support for that proposition from what's known. As for what's not yet known...it's not yet known. Also, it's clearly not an either-or matter of #Muslims vs others.
