If anyone is still paying attention to this dying thread, I would imagine that more than a few observers are expecting me to take issue with your assessment of the cause of anti-semitism. After all, it would be reasonable to assume from your words that you place the blame for the current rash of Palestinian terrorist homicide bombings on the Jews' own behavior. It would also be reasonable to assume that you place the blame for the Holocaust squarely at the feet of the Jews themselves; Jewish "behavior" is what forced Hitler and the Nazis to create the WWII death camps.
You have a point.
Jews are intelligent, educated, family-oriented, industrious, successful, wealthy and powerful. These traits and behaviors put them at odds with the world and while I wouldn't say that it's the behavior of Jews that causes anti-semitism, I believe that it's the jealousy of the world observing Jewish behaviors and the resulting successes these behaviors and traits engender that is the cause of much anti-semitism.
I also believe that the Jews stand as a reminder to the rest of the world that the God Of Abraham is a God of Justice who keeps His promises. And again, the world can't stand it and the world is jealous.
I don't think that anti-semitism is very prevalent in America, but I do believe that much of the hardcore anti-semitism among the relatively small number of white American anti-semites is related to Lost Tribe history theory and the jealousy it engenders. ("The Jews of today aren't the same Jews written about in the Bible and we are the true heirs of the promises of God.")
Not to mention relentlessly self-promoting. One does not win most international awards by waiting for the phone to ring. But chest thumping self-promotion does not make friends. When hard times arrive, those potential friends are nowhere to be found. It all works out.
Oh, then you must be those Khazars written about by the Jewish author Arthur Koestler in The Thirteenth Tribe? Do you then believe there are any REAL Jews left?
