Is that what she is saying or is she saying that Muslims in the US normally get a lot of hate and since many people are upset by Israel’s actions Jewish people are now getting a taste of that?
Maybe I’m missing some additional context but it doesn’t read to me like she’s condoning the hate towards any specific group, but simply pointing out that it exists.
Maybe she’s full of crap or maybe she’s highly educated on the topic, I don’t know. I do know that it appears to me that people are putting words into her mouth. Again, maybe I’m missing something in the story?
Or she’s saying both are bad, and sticking your head in the sand for one because you don’t like them but getting outraged by the other is hypocritical.

Sounds more like she is justifying the frightening rise in antisemitism because Islamophobia already existed:
“There are a lot of people afraid of being Jewish at this time, and are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country,”
I don’t think that she knows that Jews targeted by antisemitism is nothing new.
