Most antisemitic attacks in Europe come from Muslims, not Nazis

From Haaretz:

Anti-Semitic attacks occur every day in Germany, but since they aren’t filmed, they don’t go viral on Facebook and Twitter. Statistics published by the German government two months ago revealed that German police nationwide documented an average of four criminal incidents with an anti-Semitic motive every day last year, for a total of 1,453 incidents.

Yet these statistics are only partial, because they count only incidents reported to the police. ...

Statistics published by the German Interior Ministry show that one third of German Jews have experienced either verbal or physical anti-Semitism. Its survey found that Muslims are responsible for most of Germany’s anti-Semitic assaults, whether physical or verbal.

Although the video incident has prompted EU leaders to start to recognize this fact,  it has been known for years.

A report last year from the University of Oslo entitled "Antisemitic Violence in Europe, 2005-2015
Exposure and Perpetrators in France, UK, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Russia" included this chart:

Neo-Nazi antisemitism is concerning and must be denounced. Just today there was an outrageous incident in France where an apparent neo-Nazi tried to take hostages at a Jewish museum. 

However, Muslim and Arab antisemitism is worse and more prevalent, and has been swept under the rug for too long since the left-leaning media and academia don't want to make Muslims look bad, or they wantsay that the Muslims are "merely" anti-Zionist, because - the implication is - people with Zionist worldviews deserve to be beaten or killed. 

It is way past time for the media and political leaders to recognize that Muslim antisemitism is real, it is endemic, and it is deadly.
