Police recorded a surge in anti-Semitic incidents in Germany last year.
But contrary to Israel lobby efforts to blame Muslims, leftists and the Palestine solidarity movement, the phenomenon stems almost exclusively from the right.
In 2020, German police logged 2,275 reports of anti-Semitic incidents, more than any year since 2001, the newspaper
Der Tagesspiegelreported last week. This included 55 violent crimes.
The numbers for 2020 represent an 11 percent increase from the previous year.
Yet while police were able to identify almost 1,400 suspects, there were only five arrests.
The figures were provided by the federal government in response to a parliamentary question from Petra Pau, a left-wing lawmaker.
