Antisemitism means anti-Jew. Period. Jewish anti-Arab racists aren't self hating antisemites. Arab antisemites are not self-hating anti-Arab racists. The "Arabs speak a semitic langauge and therefore...' meme is just as absurd as suggesting that anti Afrikaaner views equal anti African racism because, well, look at what the Afrikaaners are called.
