Naive Spanish Judeophobia
(Jewish Political Studies Review) Gustavo D. Perednik - Spanish traditions, media, and vocabulary, even among intellectuals, point to a rooted hatred of Jews about which Spaniards are utterly naive. This can be traced to a national obsession about unity and homogeneity, which may be related to the frequency with which blood libels were fabricated in Spain and included in law. In spite of the vicious anti-Zionism of its press on both sides of the political spectrum, and the recurrence of "the Jewish lobby" scapegoat, most Spaniards remain unaware of Judeophobia in their country.
