Original Note:
The term antisemitism was first popularized by German journalist Wilhelm Marr in 1879 to describe hatred or hostility toward Jews. While Arabs are a Semitic people, the word antisemitism has never been used to describe hatred of Arabs, nor do dictionaries define it that way. https://www.history.com/topics/holocaust/anti-semitism
