@Baraban modern anti-Semitism really began with the Rhineland Massacres during the First Crusade led by Peter the Hermit and Count Emicho. Before then, Jews and Christians in Europe lived well together more or less. When the massacres began, many Christians in Speyer, Worms, and Mainz (including the Church leaders there) protected their Jewish neighbors.

The reason anti-Semitism began and didn't end here was because the memory of the events lived on. Jews and Christians of Europe remembered the events that occurred. As the Crusades continued, a somewhat unified Christian conscience emerged throughout Europe. Thus, instead of blaming other Christians for needlessly massacring the Jews of the Rhineland, various reasons were created as to why the Jews there should have been killed. These included charges of deicide, host desecration, and being a fifth column of Muslims within Europe.

From here, anti-Semitism became ingrained within streams of European culture, but morphed along the way as European culture evolved. Blood libel, well poisoning, greediness, media and financial control, claims Jews secretly controlled the world, Judeo-masonism, Judeo-Bolshevism, etc. all developed as canards against Jews as time went on and other canards became less applicable (well poisoning made sense during the plague, but not as much in the 19th century for example).

While anti-Semitism is not solely due to the Rhineland Massacres, much of what has transpired in the following 850 years up to the Holocaust and beyond can be partially traced back to them and the ex post facto justifications provided in their wake.
