Monday evening, as American Jews gathered to celebrate the second night of Hanukkah, news broke of Rudy Giuliani's anti-Semitic tirade against billionaire philanthropist George Soros. The remarks, which came during an alcohol-laden interview with New York Magazine, cap off a long, alarming year for anti-Semitism both in the United States and abroad. Lev Golinkin Indeed, the most dangerous thing about living at a time of constant stories about anti-Semitism is how quickly the hatred is normalized. Two and a half years ago, chants of"Jews will not replace us" in Charlottesville, Virginia, stunned America; today, anti-Semitism is just a part of the news cycle.

Opinion Anti semitism it's more like anti satan soros is pure evil
Opinion Your soros love is even more scary
Opinion Yet CNN has no problems with Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib displaying 'real' antisemitism. Calling out someone who happens to be a Jew is not antisemitism, calling out someone because they are a jew is Giulliani's remarks are not antisemitic, they are anti corruption
Opinion To CNN: why do you keep saying antisemitism about anyone who supports Trump and hate? I see people getting jumped and Beaten for wearing a MAGA hat, even disabled adults and children, but you never speak out or against them that do it. I see biased hate in your news station.

Opinion RudyGiuliani is not anti semitic! You are lying once again to try and make him look evil because he is exposing all of you. Soros is an evil wicked man and Jews know it! He betrayed the Jews in the HOLOCAUST! VIEWERS wake up!! Look for facts! CNN is lying to you!
Opinion Blackmen have NO history of violence against Jews! Some, JEWISH people were involved in the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade & colonialism in; SouthAmerica, Africa & the Caribbean! Most Blacks in the West have Jewish surnames because of SLAVERY! Blackwomen BlackTwitter ADL
Opinion Don't say nothing bad about SOROS!!!🚩 Trigger Tactics 🙈🙉🙊 Anti-Semitism or Rasist - or Russian Agent - Go, Go, Go.!!

Opinion First one: CNN is FakeNews
Opinion Now do Ilhan Omar
Opinion Anti Semitism never goes away. It is Christian orthodoxy and while it may ebb occasionally it is always close to the surface. Hitler understood this, as did the architects of the Auto-da-fe. CNN is a little behind on this one.
