Your position seems to be that ethnic and racial group egoism is an intractable constant in human relations, which of course it is; and that therefore the growing ("paranoid" to use your word) fixation of some blacks on Jews is an artifact of little interest. But in fact, the historical career of the murderous canards against the Jews, deeply rooted in misreadings of actual history by the early Church fathers, has led, as you know, to murder and oppression on a titanic scale. Blaming the Jews yet again, convenient as it may be for those engaged in their own struggles against injustice, is not a random maneuver to be rhetorically dismissed. This particular brand of scapegoating has led to blood, death, torture, oppression on the most monumental scale, and not just in recent history. Antisemitism has been perfectly characterized as "The socialism of fools."
