In today's technologically interconnected world, the ability to invent and spread conspiracy theories has become easier than ever. This became evident after the recent assassination attempt on former US President Donald Trump.

BlueAnon theories point out that the attack was staged to influence the upcoming election. BlueAnon, a pun on QAnon, refers to conspiracy theories espoused by liberals.
The rapid spread of such theories has fueled their already existing echo chambers, where misinformation is often amplified without verification or critical examination. However, the assassination attempt on Trump is not a new phenomenon.

IN THE MIDDLE AGES, Jews were hated because of their religion. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, they were hated because of their race. Today they are hated because they have created a nation-state, the state of Israel. The hatred takes many forms, but it remains basically the same: it is the view that Jews have no right to exist as free and equal human beings.
But the latter form created a kind of anti-Semitism that works differently. The Western view of the Jews and their land is rooted in our cultural heritage.
