Who is Responsible For The Rising Anti-Semitism in The United States?

With all the threats against Jewish community centers across the country and vandalism in Jewish cemeteries we must naturally ask who is responsible for the rising anti-Semitism in the United States.

Given that much of this has taken since Donald Trump was elected to President and his initial refusal to condemn the violence, it is tempting to lay this at the feet of emboldened white supremacists.

But at least where the threats to Jewish Community Centers are concerned it appears these threats came from overseas and there just aren't that many Trump supporters outside the U.S.. Given the level of organization involved in these threats and the anti-Semitic violence outside the United States over the past two decades against Jewish institutions such as the Hezbollah bombing of the Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, the attack on the Chabad-Lubavitch House in Mumbai, the terrorist attack against the Jewish Museum in Brussels, the shooting at the Copenhagen synagogue plus numerous attacks against synagogues in France, one would be foolish to rule out Islamic extremists as possible perpetrators.

Whoever is responsible for these acts and threats the sooner we can find out who is responsible the sooner we can combat it properly.
