How does Paul Johnson explain the rise of anti-Semitism in Germany?

Paul Johnson explains the rise of anti-Semitism in Germany by saying that the feeling of cultural outrage was much more important than anti-Semitism as such; or rather, it turned into anti-Semites, at any rate for the moment, people who normally never expressed such feelings. It was he Jew-as-Iconoclast which aroused the really deep rage.
