In 2016 a centre was established at Oslo University with the express purpose of investigating “right-wing” extremism, making the same pre-emptive conclusion that the Germans have generally institutionalised.

Fast forward to 2017 and this paper, jointly produced by the centre, rolls out:

Worth reading from end to end. It’s tentative early work but it’s based on existing data plus the surveying of Jewish people themselves and it finds that most anti-semitic attiudes in their European sample are demonstrated by the Muslim community followed by left-wing extremists, with people with a right wing or Christian-extremist view mostly coming a poor last (Figure 11 summarises this). An interesting finding is that the German police seem to categorise all anti-semitic incidents as “right-wing”, which somewhat warps perspectives to say the least (well it was in their history so it must still be the case, right?).

Full marks to the Centre for putting their moniker on this paper. In a lot of places I’m sure it would be buried as an inconvenient embarrassment. In the almost fading-from-memory days of last century, I recall being taught at a university to do one’s research first, *then* reach your conclusions, rather than the other way around. At least the Oslo centre seems to removed the words “right wing” from their title but it’s still up-front there in its objectives.

The only bridge that I feel this author has not yet crossed, however, is the subject of anti-Israel attitudes as actually anti-semitic attitudes in disguise, dealing as it does with the Jews’ right to exist, even in their own ancestral homeland.

However, it’s all good work-in-progress that I hope casts further light on a complex subject – but not so complex that some broad pictures are not yet evident. And certainly not attributable to Trump and Netanyahu.

You need to ask Jewish people whom they consider the greatest threat to them nowadays, not make our own assumptions about it. The answer won’t be “the right” (many of whom are actually strong supporters of the Jews and Israel) or AfD. Any issues there are relatively easy to deal with.
It was the implication in this piece that the right was emerging as the only threat to the Jews that I commented on because I thought it was very misleading. In the last half-century, Jews have never been exposed to such danger as they have been during the Obama years.
And “tarnished”? Intruded on somebody’s safe space did I? I thought the profession was about discussion and debate.
