The Left really needs to acknowledge the very real antisemitism problems in Islam, as well as the very problematic views regarding women's and LGBTQ-rights. Just because Muslims are in a minority (although depending on the city and and certain districts, that's not the case anymore) doesn't make them immune to being bad persons. It's funny how the Left are the first to point out those same problematic views in right wing extremists (and rightfully so) but turn a blind a eye when Islamists have those very same views as well. It's ignoring those problems as to why the far-right is on the rise in Europe. Since 2015 we have to deal with a massive influx of refugees from Arab countries, and sure, a lot of them behave and don't cause any problems whatsoever, but there are still enough problemmakers among those refugees to make this as an issue that needs to be addressed and dealt with in a proper manner. Most people who now vote for the far-right parties in Europe just wanted orderly and regulated migration polcies that on one side offered refugees ways to integrate themselves, but on the other also dealt strictly with the troublemakers and deported them again.

And if u are from the US and now want to lecture me, just don't. You in the US just don't know the problems the EU is facing, and the immigration you have from Mexico and South/Central America is simply not comparable.

Problem is, you are mixing religion and culture here. I have friends from Lebanon, not religious at all, and they still hate jews. This problem will not be solved by removing religion. The roots are even deeper than that. I don't have any solution nor explanation by the way.

I wonder why people in Lebanon would hate "jews" for non-religious reasons

There is probably no way to ever figure out an explanation or solution for that. It must just be culturally Lebanese to "hate jews" and that's all there is to it.
