I'm all for not hating jews, obviously, but there are lots of groups being persecuted.President Bush has signed into law a bill that calls on the State Department to document cases of anti-Semitism around the world.
The president signed the Global Anti-Semitism Review Act Saturday. During a campaign stop in Florida, Mr. Bush said the United States will make sure anti-Semitism never finds a home in the modern world.
The new law requires U.S. diplomats to grade other countries' treatment of Jews, and to produce annual reports on the subject. It was proposed by Congressman Tom Lantos, a Democrat from the state of California who is the only Holocaust survivor in the U.S. Congress.
The State Department opposed the measure, on the grounds that such information already is compiled in annual human-rights reports. Officials also contended the United States could be seen to be treating anti-Semitism differently than the persecution of other faiths.

What's with the fascination and focus on jews, whether it's hating 'em or loving 'em?
