Who was the person who started anti semitism?

By definition Antisemitism means hatred or dislike toward Semites; which are Jews an Arabs. Usually however it is just used in reference to hatred against Jews. Hatred of Jews is as old as the Hebrew people itself.The term"Antisemitism" was first used in 1860 by the Austrian Jewish writer Moritz Steinschnieder to describe the works of German Arianist writers such as Ernst Renan. Renan's writing referred to Semites inthe sense of both Arabs and Jews, but Steinschnieder used it only in reference to Jews.____Racial antisemitism (as opposed to religion-based anti-Judaism) developed largely in the 1870s.The meaning of a word is its use, not its etymology: in practice, anti-semitism is not used of prejudice against speakers of Semitic languages, but specifically for prejudice against Jews.
