Prejudice, hostility, discrimination and hatred towards Jewish people.

OBS

The unhyphenated spelling is favored by many scholars and institutions in order to dispel the idea that there is an entity "semitism" which "anti-semitism" opposes. Antisemitism should be read as a unified term so that the meaning of the generic term for modern Jew-hatred is clear.
