This is sad, but the recent war in Gaza has fueled antisemitism in Latin America.

Buenos Aires
Argentina, the Other Outlier with Lots of Jews

Argentina still has a lot of Jews; the sixth largest community of Jews outside of Israel. Unlike Chile, where Palestinians are influential, the Jews of Argentina still pack a wallop.
Source: Buenos Aires Herald – October 9, 2023 Hundreds of people took part in a march in Buenos Aires on Monday in support of Israel following the deadly terror attacks carried out by the Islamist group Hamas in the Middle East.
Headed by the country’s leading Jewish organisations, the march in Almagro was a chance for porteños to show solidarity with Israel.
The vast majority of them live in Buenos Aires, and four days ago they had a massive protest in support of Israel.

“The only solution is for the Gaza Strip, which originally belonged to the Jewish people, to be vacated,” Rafael Yablonosky, a 60-year-old doctor, said as he rallied.
The last comment is interesting, as Mr. Yablonsky does not say where the Gazans should go.
But, technically, Argentina has not been so hostile to Jews.
What about Juan Peron and the Nazis?
Juan Peron was NOT a Nazi. He considered Italian Fascist economics as interesting, but that was economics. He did not purchase into Germany’s racial theories. One of Peron’s advisors was Jewish.
Argentina had a problem with leftists, and at that time in history, many Jews were leftist. Conservative Jews were usually left alone. There were issues during the period of the junta (1976-83), but the junta went after every suspected leftist, Jew or Gentile.
Jews have had a major role in Argetina’s history. The contributed a lot to the evolution of tango music.
The Jewish population in Argentina is large, because, for the most part, Argentina was friendly to Jews.

True! Check out Moisés Ville above.
In fact, Theodore Herzl and Baron Maurice de Hirsch even considered purchasing a province in Argentina to create the Jewish state. The rabbis shot that idea down.
For them, it was the Holy Land or Nothing.
History Of The Jews In Argentina

This is such a great video that – even though I posted it elsewhere – I am re-posting it here.
The number of Jews used to be 300,000. Now it is around 180,000. The author of the video notes that towards the end. However, Wikipedia says there are 300,000 if you allow for part-Jewish people, who may not be practicing, or may not be considered Jewish by the rabbis.
There has been a massive immigration to Israel, starting under the dictatorship of the 1970’s, and later on – even after democracy was restored – because of economics.

This is what the author of the video writes on the video description area:

This opportunity comes once every four years. It is Argentina. It is Buenos Aires. It is God’s paradise on earth. Look with your eyes and have mercy on your heart.
This might help some Palestinians who are desperate to get out of Gaza.
