Anti-semitism is an action conducted by human beings, thus it has underlying causality. A big problem is that both anti-semitism and observations of "it" are based on subjective perceptions that are typically perceived as objective reality.
Causality is kind of "culturally sub-perceptual" (depending to some degree on one's geographical location and cultural/metaphysical training), I like thinking of it like the water in this classic parable:
"There are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and says “Morning, boys. How’s the water?” And the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes “What the hell is water?"
