"Anti-Arab racism is so widespread as to be unnoticeable; it is perhaps the only remaining form of racism to be regarded as legitimate."

The above, I think, is true (especially when you see people on SI calling all "Arabs" names, and mixing up Persians and Arabs and other muslims.) But seeing a conspiracy in the world's aversion to anti-semitism is not reasonable. The holocaust has given us all a valid reason to be very wary of anti-semitism (and any other language that would dehumanize a whole group that is easily identifiable). The steps to genocide are first to deride, then to debase, and finally to destroy. We must be wary of all debasement and derision of groups of people- including people who seek to debase people of the Jewish religion, or people whose heritage might be Jewish.
