The Death and Destruction Cult is a bastardized version of the Great Religions.

The best way to get rid of an ideology is to expose the falseness of it.
What you said!
Except that “anti-Semitism” has always been understood to mean “anti-Jew”, and not “anti-Arab”
Ah!, but it was the first word in his sentence.
No matter - satan NEVER deserves any grammatical respect or courtesy.
That doesn’t make it sensible semantically. I won’t use the term same as I won’t use “they” as a singular pronoun. It is simply not correct. Words mean things.
Arabs can definitely be anti-Semitic, just like blacks can be racist.
But if you would rather not use that terminology. That's certainly alright with me. On the other hand, if you are saying that Arabs aren't anti-Jewish, then I would say that you are mistaken.
That being said, does it not show an undeserved respect to whatever general in Satan's army “Allah” really is, to deliberately break standard rules of grammar just to insult him? It's so much more effective just to call him the father of dogs and pigs except I love dogs and am very fond of pork.
Anyway, it's a trivial disagreement, and I think we share the same opinion of Islam.
Negroes are more likely to be truly racist in America than other people are. Negroes are rarely anti-black, though. Semites being anti-Semite simply offends my sense of words and their denotations. Call a dog a panda and it is still a dog. Call a dog a dog and be more precise and less apt to incite confusion or be confused.
To paraphrase the old saying, a skunk by any other name would stink as badly.
excellent commentary! Thanks for posting!
