For centuries, antisemitism has resurfaced in new forms—Christian, Muslim, nationalist, and now activist. This video traces the surprising continuity between medieval blood libels, 19th-century nationalism, 20th-century wars, and today’s campus protests against Israel. Drawing on historian Benny Morris’s Quillette essay A Perfect Storm, Zoe Booth explores how three separate forces converged: traditional Christian narratives of Jewish culpability Islamic religious hostility and historical pogroms modern anti-Zionism and Western cultural radicalism We look at how antisemitic myths were transported across centuries and continents—from the Crusades and Quranic texts to Ottoman Damascus and, later, to Hamas’s modern ideology. Why is antisemitism resurging? Why has support for Hamas taken hold on Western campuses? And how do Qatar, media narratives, and fading Holocaust memory feed today’s crisis?
