'THE SURVEY SAYS' ~~~~ 15% OF AMERICANS 'UNQUESTIONABLY ANTI-SEMITIC'

The biggest anti-Semite of them all, Abe Foxman, conducted a survey to determine what percentage of Americans are anti-Semitic... he came up with 15%.

I propose another survey be held among that alleged number and ask how much of their anti-Semitism is a result of hate mongers like Foxman himself.... the results of that survey just might shut him up for awhile.

The following from HaAretz deals with the 'survey' already held....

ADL survey: 15% of Americans 'unquestionably anti-Semitic'
By Haaretz Service

The Anti-Defamation League on Thursday released recent survey results which it says show 15 percent of American adults hold "unquestionably anti-Semitic" views.

The figures represent an increase of one percent since last time the survey was conducted in 2005, and contradicted a decade-long trend of reduced anti-Semitism.

The ADL, which is an international organization aiming to reduce anti-Semitism through programs and services, conducted the telephone survey of 2,000 Americans registered as voters in October. A similar survey conducted by it in 1998 showed anti-Semitism dropped from 20 percent to 12 percent over the preceding six years.
Presenting the results of the survey at the ADL National Commission's annual meeting, National Director Abraham Foxman expressed his concern at the apparent reversal of previous trends away from anti-Semitism.

"These findings, coupled with the ongoing acts of anti-Semitic incidents and hate crimes, suggest that anti-Semitic beliefs endure and resonate with a substantial segment of the population, nearly 35 million people.?

The survey found that 31 percent of participants believe Jews are more loyal to Israel than America, down from 33 percent in 2005, and that 27 percent believe Jews were responsible for the death of Christ, down from 30 percent in 2005.

A further 15 percent believed that Jews have ?too much power in the U.S.?, which remained unchanged from 2005, while 20 percent and 18 percent respectively believed Jews have too much influence in business and on Wall Street.

"When it comes to Jews, old stereotypes die hard," said Foxman, adding that ?Jewish power? has replaced many ethnic stereotypes previously attributed to Jewish Americans.
