Question for those who would know personally, is the devil caricature anti-semitic or just offensive?

my mom doesnt have jewish blood, she converted when she married my step dad, i went to hebrew school and sunday school, was bar mitzah'd on mt. messiah in israel.
If the article's subject matter was related to DS being jewish, then yes I would agree the horn thing would be an offensive reference to the history of jewish people being depicted as having horns but . . .
this article didnt mention his faith, it was about his past actions as owner of the skins which gives context to the devil horns, unibrow, goatee etc. IMO
what i find not offensive but unfortunate is DS's decision to use the bigotry card and solicit a condemnation from (forget the name) some jewish center in dc. he is probably a member there, donates money etc.
