It’s not only important to pray, give charity, and learn Torah but also to learn about and yearn for the coming of the Mashiach. Antisemitism is irrational. No amount of logic or education ever snuffs out the hatred of the Jews or Israel. We are being shown that, in truth, there is nowhere else to turn except Hashem.  Fortunately, Hashem loves us and wants us to turn to Him. Hashem wants us to yearn for the Mashiach and the Geulah, which, as Rebbe Nachman of Breslov says, is the entire purpose and end-goal of creation.
