Anti semitism is the term to mean the hatred of Jews, which was first coined by Wilheim Marr, a German novelist who produced an anti-Jewish pamphlet in 1879. It was primarily used for those who did not like Jewish people, but in fact, anti semitism is the hatred of those who speak Semitic languages such as Jewish or Arabic. It is a most misleading term because not all Semites are Jewish and Semites include people from Arabic and other backgrounds.

Anti semitism is a form of religious prejudice: disliking people because of their religious affiliation, and the causes of this hate form a similar pattern no matter who is being discriminated against: African Americans, Asians and people belonging to other religions. Jewish people have been discriminated against since the religion was first developed somewhere between 1800 and 1500 B.C by Abraham, considered to be the father of the Jewish religion. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the Christian Church became the most powerful religion in the world, and even though many of the Jews lived in peace with their Christian neighbours, there was still prejudice and discrimination.

With prejudice, it can be certain that there is a large amount of ignorance associated with the intolerance of Jews. People were too clouded with judgment or propaganda to discover the real facts about the Jewish people and their religion, and therefore were easily influenced to believe what the majority thought.

On the other hand, there are many different theories about anti Semitism, and some even say that Jewish people have brought it on themselves, that it is their own fault. They have been accused of being anti social, which is evident in the massive ghettos that were apparent in Poland and especially in the United States where only Jewish people resided. Many Jewish people have been accused of being arrogant and authoritative because of their wealth and fine education. Other accusations have claimed that anti Semitism is caused because, in honesty, the Jews are outsiders. Their religion is extremely dogmatic, and because of this, has caused them to stay apart from other cultures, for example, it is a strict rule that when a couple are married, both must be Jewish, as there are no exceptions for a marriage of different religions. Their strict food laws would also prevent them from socialising, as the food must be prepared a certain way and must be a certain type of food known as 'kosher', or fit to be eaten.
