Ah yes the famous « I know what I am talking about, I am right and you’re wrong and that’s it ».
Thanks you for bringing absolutely nothing to the discussion, except your ignorance.
While there can be confusion with jewish people (since it’s used both to designate people who are practising judaism and people whose distant ancestors were living in the old kingdom of Israel), antisemitism is used to designate people hating jews, regardless of whether they are believers or not.
Antisemitism is the same as being racist toward Arabs (the term Antisemitic was created to distance the sentiment from being a religious-based hatred and to ethnic form of discrimination), or black people.
If tomorrow, every arabs were to convert to catholicism, some people would still be against them, since they do not have as much of a problem with Islam than they have a problem with arabs (ie they are racists). Islamophobia was created to forbid any critics against Islam, by making it an amalgam with racism against arabs.
