https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Jews_during_the_Black_Death or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Jews_during_the_Black_Death ;
The persecution of Jews during the Black Death consisted of a series of violent mass attacks and massacres. Jewish communities were often blamed for outbreaks of the Black Death in Europe. From 1348-1351, acts of violence were committed in Toulon, Barcelona, Erfurt, Basel, Frankfurt, Strasbourg and elsewhere. The persecutions led to a large migration of Jews to Jagiellonian Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. There are very few Jewish sources on Jewish massacres during the Plague.^[1]
DJ-A very likely reason why there are not many Jewish sources of that era left is the mass murder on Jews was that radical they did not get much chance to produce any sources...

	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitism#Contemporary_antisemitism or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitism#Contemporary_antisemitism ; After the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel on 7 October, antisemitism and anti-Jewish hate crimes around the world increased significantly.^[269]^[270]^[271] Multiple universities and university officials have been accused of systemic antisemitism.^[272]^[273]^[274] On 1 May 2024, the United States House of Representatives voted 320-91 in favour of adopting a bill enshrining the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism into law.^[275] The bill was opposed by some who claimed it conflated criticism of Israel with antisemitism, while Jewish advocacy groups like the American Jewish Committee and World Jewish Congress generally supported it in response to the increase in antisemitic incidents on university campuses.^[276]^[277] An open letter by 1,200 Jewish professors opposed the proposal DJ, A lot of the protests against the USrael genocide in Gaza are (in part) organized by Jewish groups. The "USrael-intel" trying to "mix" criticism of USrael war crimes with claims of anti-semitism... ...all that while a healthcrisis is getting out of control...

	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitism#Causes or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitism#Causes ; Antisemitism has been explained in terms of racism, xenophobia, projected guilt, displaced aggression, and the search for a scapegoat.^[284] - As another example, Walter Laqueur suggested that the antisemitic perception of Jewish people as greedy (as often used in stereotypes of Jews) probably evolved in Europe during medieval times where a large portion of money lending was operated by Jews.^[291] Among factors thought to contribute to this situation include that Jews were restricted from other professions,^[291] while the Christian Church declared for their followers that money lending constituted immoral "usury",^[292] although recent scholarship, such as that of historian Julie Mell shows that Jews were not overrepresented in the sector and that the stereotype was founded in Christian projection of taboo behaviour on to the minority.^[285]^[293]^[294] DJ, There is an increase of agression also against (openly) gay men, women, "people that are not main stream"... Catholicism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_and_Judaism or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_and_Judaism -more wide "christianity" did claim "the Jews murdered jesus"... For that matter "antisemitism" is a form of "crowd management"...going back at least 2300 years-before christianity even started. A "power elite" often used religious claims "an order given by "the gods" -to defend their own privilaged situation-and to justify injustice for the rest... "Problems" were not in "the social order" (god given...so above any question)...so blame "people who were different"... In the 21st century we ran out of "witches" and "heratics" ...Mixing "USrael" with Judaism is unwise... USrael is supposed to be a "safe place for (all the) Jews"...since 1948 it has been in an almost permanent crisis with its region...USrael itself may be "promoting" the idea of an increase of antisemitism to try to get more people identifying themselves as "Jewish" to move INTO USrael....over 10% of the USrael population is leaving USrael because of the wars since october 7...

	And YES-there is still also "hatred of the Jews"-often mixed with hate against "anything different" than the "haters"....(so Black/Brown skinned people, homosexuals, feminists, "left wing people"...). DJ-The last thing we need right now is "the west" going for "antisemitism" as an instrument to get a western grip on West Asia... Both zelenski and netanyahu are "Jewish"-also a.o. blinken US-FM "visited USrael as a Jew"... With the perspective of a worsening healthcrisis the mix with "politics" going for "antisemitism" in a neo-colonial agenda is very unwelcome ! It may revive a ghost from the past that we should never forget-but also NEVER even think of exploiting !
