As we try to make sense of the rise of Antisemitism in America, we find a common denominator rooted in the practice of Islamic teachings and should take the same direct approach to combatting hatred as the Freedom Party is doing in the Netherlands.
"Knowledge Lights the Path, Action Paves the Way."
Andrew Bostom [ [link removed] ] | Front Page | 12-5-2023
Geert Wilders, a long-time friend of Act for America, and his Partij voor de Vrijheid (PVV), “Party For Freedom,” burst out of the Netherlands’ political wilderness with a resounding [ [link removed] ] victory last Wednesday, 11/22/23. Now endeavoring [ [link removed] ] to cobble together a governing coalition, Wilders observed, aptly,
“The PVV is a broad popular party. The largest in the Netherlands. 2.4 million people voted for us. Highly and poorly educated, native and immigrant, workers, retirees, young people, and the elderly. From the city, the countryside. The PVV is for everyone.”
Just prior to the election, the Dutch CIDI [ [link removed] ] (Centrum Informatie En Documentatie Israel) summarized PVV’s record on Israel and “Antisemitism,” Jew-hatred, including these unique declarations [ [link removed] ]:
·         the Dutch embassy in Israel must move to Jerusalem, that Jordan (78% [ [link removed] ] of the original Mandate for Palestine, and still Judenrein, “Jew-free,” by law [ [link removed] ]) is the only true Palestinian state, and PVV does not favor the creation of another one.
·         support for Israeli settlements in Judea-Samaria (the West Bank).
·         opposition to the Cairo Declaration [ [link removed] ] of Human Rights in Islam, subordinated to the Sharia. [ [link removed] ]
·         commitment to fighting Antisemitism, as defined by the IHRA [ [link removed] ], and as promulgated, especially “from an Islamic point of view”.
That commitment couldn’t be more timely given the dramatic, over 8-fold increase [ [link removed] ] in antisemitic incidents within the Netherlands since Hamas’ 10/7/23 jihad carnage in southern Israel.
When CIDI’s annual report for 2019 was released [ [link removed] ] on 2/17/20, recording 182 Antisemitic incidents, its highest number ever registered since 1982, when monitoring began, Wilders inveighed [ [link removed] ] against the denial of what the report’s findings actually substantiated. During a Parliamentary floor debate, Tuesday 2/18/20, eschewing the craven, vacuous platitudes of his colleagues, Wilders thundered [ [link removed] ],
“[I]t is almost nauseating. We’ve been talking about Antisemitism, here in the Lower House (of the Dutch Parliament) for ten minutes now. And nobody, really nobody has discussed the biggest cause of Antisemitism, which is of course Islam, and Islamization.”  
Observing that, “we have a million Muslims in the Netherlands right now,” and “Islam is synonymous with Jew-hatred,” Wilders [ [link removed] ] demonstrated, accurately, how “intrinsic” Islamic Antisemitism [ [link removed] ] was redolent within Islam’s defining text, the Qur’an:
“In the Koran its says that Jews are monkeys and pigs (Koran 5:60 [ [link removed] ]). That they are bad (5:79 [ [link removed] ]). That they cannot be trusted (5:13 [ [link removed] ]). That they are liars (2:100 [ [link removed] ]). That they are dishonest (3:78 [ [link removed] ]).”
Wilders concluded [ [link removed] ] by demanding that his colleagues acknowledge,
“…there is a connection between mass immigration of people from Islamic countries, and Antisemitism…If you do not, you are selling politically correct nonsense.”  
Irrefragable support for Wilders’ contention is provided by hard Western European data on both Antisemitic attitudes and non-lethal Antisemitic violence, or violent threats.
Data collected during the 2008 “Six Countries Study [ [link removed] ]” (i.e., The Netherlands, Germany, France, Belgium, Austria, and Sweden) from ~9000 participants (3373 native Christians; 3344 Turkish Muslim immigrants; 2204 Moroccan Muslim immigrants) revealed [ [link removed] ] that 45% of the Muslim immigrants, vs. 9% of native Christians, believed “Jews cannot be trusted.” While such hostility to Jews among “fundamentalist” Christians doubled to ~18%, over 70% of fundamentalist Muslims were hostile to Jews.
“Antisemitism in Brussels’ Schools,” a 426 pp. study [ [link removed] ], included data on the views within the young Belgian Muslim community, primarily, 12-18 year-olds, during 2011. A 354pp. follow-up study [ [link removed] ] of Antwerp-Ghent youth was published in 2013. 2,837 students in 32 Dutch-speaking Brussels high schools were surveyed. Muslim respondents agreed with the following four statements—i.e., Antisemitic stereotypes—at disproportionate, 3.7-fold, to 7.0-fold, rates!:
[I] “Jews want to dominate everything” (Muslims, 56.8%; non-Muslims, 10.5%);
[II] “Most Jews think they’re better than others” (Muslims, 47.1%; non-Muslims, 12.9%);
[III] “If you do business with Jews, you should be extra careful” (Muslims, 47.5%; non-Muslims, 12.9%);
[IV] “Jews incite to war and blame others” (Muslims, 53.7%; non-Muslims, 7.7%).
Antisemitic Muslim attitudes were unrelated to low educational level or social disadvantage.
The 2013 study of 863 students from Ghent and Antwerp, including 346 Muslim students, confirmed these results. 45-50% of Muslim students evidenced Antisemitic attitudes, versus 10% of non-Muslims, consistent 4.5 to 5-fold excess rates. Gunther Jikeli’s 2011 study yielded concordant results. Jikeli, a Muslim convert [ [link removed] ], conducted 117 interviews [ [link removed] ] with Muslims from Berlin, Paris, and London, whose mean age was 19 years old. Jikeli affirmed [ [link removed] ] the centrality of Islam, “references to the Qur’an or the Hadith (traditions of Muhammad),” in shaping the Antisemitic views of young Muslim adults in Western Europe.
Anti-Defamation League surveys conducted [ [link removed] ] in Belgium, Spain, Germany, Italy, The United Kingdom, and France, during 2015 and repeated in 2019, assessed the prevalence of “extreme Antisemitism”, defined as agreement with at least 6/11 Antisemitic stereotypes among Christians/non-Muslims, and Muslims. Both surveys revealed a nearly 3-fold increased rate of extreme Antisemitism within the Muslim, relative to the non-Muslim populations. Updated ADL findings from Belgium [ [link removed] ] and France [ [link removed] ] just published in May, 2023, were identical. The prevalence of extreme Antisemitism among French Muslims was 62%, vs. 15% in French Christians. For Belgium, extreme Antisemitism was observed in 52% of Muslims, vs. 21% of Christians.
A post-October 7, 2023 epiphany of the liberal Jewish intelligentsia, embodied by journalist Bari Weiss [ [link removed] ], and her recent Federalist Society speech [ [link removed] ], Ms. Weiss proclaimed [ [link removed] ],
“Look at your enemies and your allies…I know that in the fight for the West, I know who my allies are.” -Liberal Journalist Bari Weiss
