History of anti Semitism

Great article. Pipes reinforces my own view of history and the shifts that have occurred. (So, naturally, I would like the article.)

I, myself, have no religious affiliation and my political views are to the right of center. I was raised in the "Christian-Lite" tradition. I have a very left-oriented Jewish friend who hates Bush and all he stands for. I debate many issues of the day with him, including issues relative to anti semitism. I forwarded this article to him, asking his opinion.

It would be very enlightening to expand on this article, for I suspect that many leftist Jews are stuck in a time warp when rightist Christians and KKK types were their enemies and Communism and Socialism appeared to be their friend.
