I agree, to put it simply; anti-sematic is commonly used to describe anti-jewish stances, and islamophobic is commonly used to describe anti-muslim stances - and that doesnt really need changing. Both words work fine when used for these reasons.
Bit confused as to why some would rather their posts be described as anti-sematic than islamophobic too - but thats the reason you're seeig the phrase now. Someone decided last week that they didnt like to be called islamophobic on tibb, and then a few mutually agreed that anti-sematic could work.
