A new cover for Jew-hatred: Why the word 'antisemitism' is under attack - opinion

An opinion piece published by the Jerusalem Post examines the historical weight and current status of the word "antisemitism." The commentary argues that the heavy social and moral cost attached to the label "antisemite" is not an inherent property of language, but rather the result of a deliberate postwar settlement forged at a high price in the wake of Auschwitz.

The article discusses how the term has been rendered "unwearable" not through standard intellectual argument, but through the profound historical trauma of the Holocaust. It suggests that the word and the concept of Jew-hatred are currently facing new challenges and attempts to undermine or alter their usage in contemporary discourse.
