Note the absence of Central Americans. When it comes to Asian and African immigrants, the US' immigration system is selective. Those who make it in are, by and large, skilled and middle-class and so more likely to succeed economically than the average white American.

No serious person believes it's peaceful jihad that is meant when the signs call for "Muslim armies" to destroy Israel.

The fact that this occured in Christianty's Holy City and during a religious procession makes it a far more egregious incident than just "some spitting."
We Jews can't claim the moral high ground if we downplay and relativize the desecrations of other religions in our state.

Nope. The Russian army considers all civilian infrastructure to be a legit target and says so explicitly. Ukrainians aren't "terrorists." They're a sovereign state defending themselves against barbaric invaders who use terror tactics.

The type that's growing today (the left-wing kind) is more insidious as it claims NOT to be antisemitism, but a form of humanism. At least as a Jew you knew where you stood with the anti-Dreyfusards, the White Russians and the Nazis. The pro-Hamas left clarifies things for us.

There's no real comparison. In the US Muslim immigrants are largely educated, middle-class, are far more culturally diverse, enter in small numbers (relative to total pop) and are compelled to integrate due to the lack of welfare cushion. Lack of historical animus helps too.
