From the OP: British Muslims are, on average, three to four times more likely to hold intensely anti-Jewish views than members of the British public in general.

Either admit that the alt right aren't 'uniquely despicable', or admit that you only care about bigotry when the alt right practices it.

Interesting that the author of the linked page doesn't provide support for his claims about anti-semitic views among British Muslims. He simply says it's true and you accept it. Why?

You beat me to it. Why? I should have thought that was obvious.

Because he's quoted as a reputable researcher by the BBC;

They found more than half of Muslims (55%) held at least one anti-Semitic attitude.

Over a quarter of British people 'hold anti-Semitic attitudes', study finds - BBC News

And because the content of his article matches what I've read about the subject.

Its not just a problem that's unique to the UK either;

When I was young anti-Semitism was rife. My dad's generation called Jewish males Jew boys. And no Muslims in sight.

The article was originally written in response to a proposed Islamic center opening in Golders Green, which contains many of London's Jewish residents, kosher shops, and draws much tourism from Jewish people.

How should Britain's Jews handle the changing demographics in light of the prevailing antisemitic believes of many in the Muslim community?

You are so predictable, Trump supporter? He don't like brown folks either. You could have gone the whole hog and reposted those nasty far right videos courtesy of the Racist in Chief.

So having at least one anti Muslim attitude would make you Islamophobic. Only one is needed to make a positive identification.

And not forgetting that antisemitism is at a low level in Britain.

Review what your government has ruled;

In December 2016 the government adopted an internationally recognised definition of anti-Semitism: "a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews".
 
So, we have claims of increasing antisemitism in England, while the neo-Nazis are marching in America shouting, "No more Jews!" and the Israeli government is showing just a wee bit of anti-feminism, an action which is not supported by the majority of Jews.

Female journalists covering Pence in Israel forced to stand behind male colleagues

JERUSALEM — If there’s one thing female journalists covering the trip of Vice President Pence to Israel will remember it is the “special treatment” they received, first by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s security detail and second, in their “unique” vantage point while covering Pence's visit to the Western Wall on Tuesday.

At Netanyahu’s office on Monday morning, a visiting female journalist from Finland’s state television was asked to remove her bra during an overly zealous and demeaning security check. When she refused, she was prevented from covering Pence's news conference with Netanyahu.

Then, on Tuesday, female journalists were particularly perturbed to discover that they had been relegated to covering Pence’s spiritual stop at the Western Wall, one of Judaism’s holiest sites, from the other side of a fence.

You'd call it egregious sexism if it occurred in Washington DC. In other parts of the world, it's only 'a wee bit anti-feminist'. Lol.

I didn't see that in the research. Did you?
