Original Note:
Antisemitism is prejudice against or hatred of Jews. It was coined by Germans in 1860 to refer specifically to “Jew hatred” and has never referred to broader Semite people. Therefore, being a Semite does not exclude a person from being antisemitic. https://www.ushmm.org/antisemitism/what-is-antisemitism https://www.myjewishlearning.com/article/where-the-word-anti-semitism-comes-from/ https://njop.org/the-origin-of-word-anti-semitism/
