I agree that these are factors. But why this particular choice of 'scapegoat', right now? The world is full of scapegoats: gays, women, foreigners of any kind, people with skin color not of the majority, any religion not of the majority, people who dare to speak out against the political status quo, on and on it goes. And is there really evidence of these suggested causes in the specific cases we've seen so far? Or, if they really are just complete nutjobs and the victims just happened to be Jewish, then why the marked uptick in violence among the world's nutjobs?The economy is crappy.
The rise of populism and divisie politics.
The people feel insecure.
They take out their insecurities on traditional scapegoats.
