Abstract:
Criticizes a report prepared in 2012 on antisemitism in Germany, which was commissioned by the Bundestag. Argues that the report downplays neo-Nazi antisemitism, which accounts for 1,192 of the 1,246 hate crimes against Jews which occurred in 2010. The report focuses on left-wing and Islamist hatred of the Jews, treating even these phenomena superficially. The report's very broad definition of antisemitism makes it possible to label all expressions of anti-Zionism, and all critiques of Israeli policy, as hatred of the Jews. The report also sets antisemitism apart from all other forms of racism, and ignores them.
