1. Quora Answer to Question on anti-Semitism in Ireland: Only 10% ?
As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, specific statistics regarding the percentage of Irish people holding anti-Semitic views can vary based on the surveys conducted. In recent years, some studies and surveys indicated a low level of anti-Semitic sentiment in Ireland compared to other countries.
For instance, a 2020 survey by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) reported that around 10% of respondents in Ireland expressed anti-Semitic views. However, it's important to consult updated and specific studies or reports for the most current statistics, as these figures can change over time.

2. "Millions of Christians Are under Islamist Assault, so Pope Francis Targets the Jews!"
By: Uzay Bulut and Charles Jacobs
Christians face persecution, discrimination, forced conversion and even mass murder for their faith in many parts of the Muslim world. Yet, Pope Francis calls for an investigation to see if the Jews are committing a "genocide" against Muslims in Gaza.
The Jews are not committing genocide against Muslims in Gaza, whose population grew almost 3% last year. Muslims, however, are committing mass murder via jihad against Christians in Africa. Yet the pope cowers from defending his own flock.
Africa has become the epicenter of radical Islamic terrorism. Murderous jihad attacks against Christians abound in Nigeria, Mali, Burkina Faso, Egypt, Niger, the Central African Republic, Mozambique, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Cameroon.
The Jews are not committing genocide against Muslims in Gaza, whose population grew almost 3% last year. Muslims, however, are committing mass murder via jihad against Christians in Africa. Yet the pope cowers from defending his own flock.
The number of Christians intentionally killed, let alone tortured, raped, kidnapped and forcibly converted to Islam far exceeds the number of Gazans killed unintentionally as Israel directs its fire at terrorists who hide behind civilians. Indeed, Israel is defending its Jewish population from the very same jihadist assaults faced by African Christians.
Thousands of houses, shops and businesses belonging to Christians, in addition to churches and other Christian buildings such as schools, hospitals and cemeteries in those African nations, have been attacked, damaged, bombed, looted, closed, destroyed, burned down and/or confiscated by jihadists whose declared goals are to conquer and rule over Christian communities. According to a 2024 report by the Africa Center for Strategic Studies, the number of African refugees, internally displaced persons and asylum seekers grew by 14% in the past year to more than 45 million people. There is no call from the pope to investigate.
An abbreviated roll call illustrates the problem.
"Nigeria is the most violent country in the world for Christians. Every two hours, a Christian is killed in Nigeria," according to Open Doors. Raids by jihadists are a common way to terrorize Christian communities in Nigeria. Christian women and girls are raped, forced into sexual slavery, kidnapped for ransom or murdered. More than 150,000 people, mostly Christians, have been murdered since 2009 by jihadist forces, including Boko Haram, according to a report by the International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law. The pope has not called for an investigation to see if jihadists and their sponsors are responsible.
In Egypt, Coptic Christians remain a target of persecution. Hundreds of young women have been kidnapped, forced to convert to Islam and coerced into marriage by Islamist men.

Around 9:30 AM on Friday (Dec. 27, 2024), a terrorist attack was reported on Kdoshei Ha'Shoah (Martyrs of the Shoah) Street in Herzliya. A woman in her 80s was killed. She has been identified as Ludmilla Lipovsky, age 83.
PS.
Her murderer has been identified as an Arab collaborator with Israel. It happens that such people are often required by Hamas or the PLO to carry out terrorist attacks in order to "atone" for their previous association with Israel.
