2. And then there's blood libel. The term started out as referring to false accusations that Jewish people kill Gentiles to use their blood and flesh in rituals. There is a specific variant that claims matzos are made with the blood of Christian children.

3. Martin Luther, a big name in many Christian circles, was very antisemitic. He wrote a book called On Jews And Their Lies that contributed to antisemitic violence and genocide centuries down the line. He also supported the blood libel myth and believed that violence against Jewish people was justified if it made them convert (or if they refused to convert).
To add insult to injury, I've seen Christians saying things to the effect of "But he had good things to say, so his antisemitic beliefs are no big deal."
