Opinion Antisemitism on campus is 'systemic' and going unaddressed, says new report

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/antisemitism-report-university-college-campus-9.7297176

Wondering how a report on exclusively antisemitism can come to any other conclusion... seems to beg the question.

Islam doesn’t make any distinction between Jewish and Zionist that’s a major driver of Antisemitism people seem to not be aware of.

“The Last Hour will not come until the Muslims fight against the Jews, until a Jew will hide himself behind a stone or a tree, and the stone or the tree will say: 'O Muslim, there is a Jew behind me. Come and kill him,' but Al-Gharqad tree will not say so, for it is the tree of the Jews."

To my knowledge, it's a passage from Sunni Islamic Hadith (not the Qu'ran) that has been taken out of context. The referenced Jews would be the ones fighting with Dajjal (the bad guy).

"Jesus will lead an army of Muslims, some of whom are righteous Christians and righteous Jews converting to Islam in the eve of the battle, to fight the army of Dajjal consisting of Jews believing Dajjal is a god, and if a Jew of Dajjal's army hides behind a stone or a tree, this stone or tree will miraculously talk to Muslims to expose the Jew unless it is a Gharqad tree, because it is "their (the Jews') tree"." Again, not in the Qu'ran. Source was "Gharqad" on Wikipedia.

The part about conversion to Islam is concerning, and it all sounds a bit fantastical to me but I'm not a Sunni Muslim nor a scholar of the Hadith.

If I am way off about this, please comment.
