American Anti-Semitism Amplifed by Internet
World Net Daily ^ | 8/26/'13 | Alex Newman

While controversial among Jews, especially secular ones, there is an increasingly influential Jewish movement that sees anti-Semitism in a different light.

“The biggest problem here is people not knowing the difference between the Israeli establishment and the people who consider themselves Zionists based on the Biblical covenant between God and the Jewish people in his promise to Abraham,” said Bob Unger, a prominent Jewish attorney and conservative political activist in New York who describes himself as a “Biblical Zionist rather than a New World Order Zionist.”

To deal with anti-Semitism, Unger told WND, “be a proud Jew and act like a Jew is supposed to act.”

While the Jewish lawyer’s views may be controversial among liberal-leaning and secular Jews, Unger is hardly alone in his analysis of anti-Semitism.

“But there are also plenty of people who don’t really take a side,” [Rob Muchnick] told WND in a phone interview. “If we behaved as we should – in a more Jewish fashion – then we would get that huge amount of people who are undecided and are waiting for us to do good.”

Both Unger and Muchnick said that when people begin to understand the vast differences between different types of Jews, rather than seeing the Jewish people as a collectivist monolith represented by a handful of prominent establishment figures, anti-Semitism tends to melt away – at least in people susceptible to logic, facts and reason.

This article is a mixed bag. There's a lot of citing of left wingers like the ADL and the Wiesenthal Center, but there's also the material in the last part of the article.

With regard to this material, while I am all for "Biblical Zionism," I still see no inherent connection between the secular nationalist movement founded by Theodor Herzl and any "new world order." The worst that can be said of it is that it is a secular nationalist movement of European origin that is essentially no different from any other European nationalism of the time (Irish Republicanism, Armenian Dashnaks, Greeks, etc.). Whether or not there is a "new world order," I seriously doubt that Herzl and his movement had anything to do with it. Why in sam hill would liberal secularists want a world governed from the Holy City? It's ridiculous.

“New World Order” is a red herring here. (Or maybe a red heifer!)

“Why in sam hill would liberal secularists want a world governed from the Holy City? It’s ridiculous.”

Yes, that is pretty ridiculous. However, a lot of the people who do believe in the NWO theories don’t believe that they are actually liberal secularists. At the heart of these theories is the idea that the secret societies pulling the levers are actually run by occultists, satanists, or some other esoteric type of order. So it would make a bit more sense for those types of people to attach some significance to Jerusalem, even if it isn’t for the same reason that Jews and Christians do.
