Witnessing the Growing Rise of Anti-Semitism As a Non-Jew

I also learned about something not-so-wonderful – antisemitism. Since I’m not Jewish myself, and grew up in a philosemitic family, I was woefully ignorant and frankly horrified when I began to grasp the lies and hateful legends about Jews that never seem to stop. It was equally alarming to find that antisemitism is widespread not only in the surrounding Arab countries, but well beyond.
