June 11, 2021 THE WEEK’S BIG 3 Antisemitic incidents more than doubled in May compared to last year following Mideast violence, according to new data from ADL. Online antisemitism grew significantly during the pandemic, with COVID-19 ushering in “a new wave of antisemitic conspiracy theories and hate in Europe,” the European Commission said in a report issued last week. Four members of the same family were killed in a pickup truck attack in London, Ontario in what…

In the last year, peace accords between Israel and four Arab states fueled predictions that several other Mideast governments might soon make amends with the Jewish state. Saudi Arabia, Mauritania, Oman, Kuwait, and Qatar were all identified as possible next candidates for peace with Israel. Reports also suggested that Turkey and Egypt, which recognize Israel but avoid fully normalized relations, might face new pressures to shift from cold…
June 09, 2021 In the past month, the American Jewish community has been under increased threat of violence and harassment. Early data from ADL suggests antisemitic incidents have increased significantly, both online and offline, after the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians returned to the national spotlight. We wanted to follow up on the survey we conducted earlier this year of Jewish Americans to learn about their experiences with antisemitism, online and off, to help determine…
June 09, 2021 Un nuevo análisis del Centro sobre Extremismo de la ADL revela que los incidentes antisemitas en Estados Unidos aumentaron a más del doble durante el conflicto militar de mayo de 2021 entre Israel y Hamás y sus consecuencias inmediatas, en comparación con el mismo período de tiempo en 2020. Después de alcanzar un punto máximo entre el 20 y el 22 de mayo de 2021, el nivel de incidentes ha retornado gradualmente al nivel de…
June 08, 2021 Just as Jewish individuals and institutions have been targeted with antisemitism during the recent conflict between Israel and Hamas in many European cities, antisemitic incidents have also occurred in European soccer stadiums and antisemitic vitriol has reached unprecedented levels online.
Antisemitism has always been present in European soccer. Fans have written antisemitic, racist, neo-Nazi slogans on banners, sung them in songs, and shouted them during physical attacks on…
June 07, 2021 New analysis from ADL’s Center on Extremism reveals that antisemitic incidents in the U.S. more than doubled during the May 2021 military conflict between Israel and Hamas and its immediate aftermath compared to the same time period in 2020. After peaking between May 20-22, 2021, incident levels have gradually returned to a baseline level. These numbers should still be considered preliminary and are likely to change as additional information becomes available.

June 07, 2021 En toda Europa, las protestas contra las restricciones del COVID-19 y las campañas públicas que promocionan las vacunas contra el virus han incluido símbolos e imágenes del Holocausto, entre ellas la estrella amarilla.
La utilización de este tipo de imaginería del Holocausto compara erróneamente el régimen nazi antisemita, racista, misógino, xenófobo y homófobo, y sus actos genocidas, con las…

Updated: January 2024 Since 1979, ADL (the Anti-Defamation League) has compiled data on antisemitic incidents, including both criminal and non-criminal acts, occurring across the United States. These include incidents of harassment, vandalism and assault against individuals and groups. Incident data is gathered from reports from victims, law enforcement and the media, as well as reports obtained by ADL’s 25 regional offices across the country. The data is used to help…
June 02, 2021 Across Europe, protests against COVID-19 restrictions and public campaigns promoting vaccines against the virus have included Holocaust symbols and imagery, such as the yellow star.
The utilization of this type of Holocaust imagery wrongly compares the antisemitic, racist, misogynist, xenophobic and homophobic Nazi-regime and its genocidal acts to current government measures to contain the pandemic. Comparing the two is not only an act of moral outrage, but also represents an…
During the two weeks of military conflict between Israel and Hamas in May 2021, antisemitic incidents in the U.S. reported to ADL increased by 75% compared to the two weeks before the fighting began, from 127 to 222, according to preliminary data. (Also see update: Full data for month of May 2021). Many of these incidents appear to have been perpetrated by individuals scapegoating American Jews for the actions of the Israeli government.
The incidents have taken place at and around the…

In recent days, political cartoons in Middle Eastern publications have understandably focused extensive attention on the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. Unsurprisingly, some of these cartoons crossed the line from legitimate political satire to trafficking in antisemitic imagery and messages.
Common anti-Jewish tropes applied to Israel’s conduct by some of these cartoons included depictions of Jews being bloodthirsty…

The Times of Israel The current crisis in Israel is disturbing on many levels. While there’s nothing new about Hamas raining rockets down on Israeli civilian centers, the heightened levels of sophistication of the rockets, combined with the distressing outburst of inter-communal violence in Israeli cities have added to the stark challenges facing Israel as it moves into the second week of conflict with Hamas.
Undoubtedly, the beginning of this current…
May 19, 2021 As the deadly military confrontation between Israel and Hamas enters its second week, an ADL assessment finds a disturbing array of antisemitic posts related to the conflict on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.
While much of this content appears to have been posted by individuals who have reached for antisemitic stereotypes in a misplaced response to their anger over Palestinian suffering, it is possible that some true antisemites are taking advantage of current events by…

Less than a year ago, a high-profile sermon at the Grand Mosque in Mecca fueled speculation Saudi Arabia might be prepared to follow some of its neighbors’ footsteps by making peace with Israel. However, clerics at Saudi Arabia’s Grand Mosque in Mecca as well as the Prophet’s Mosque in Medina sent a starkly different series of messages this week, in how they…
May 14, 2021 Young Jews in Europe are experiencing a spike in antisemitism and hate and threats as the crisis in Israel and the region escalates.

The increasing conflict in Israel and Gaza in May 2021 has elicited social media commentary from around the world. In some cases, criticism of Israel has crossed the line into antisemitism. On Twitter, a number of antisemitic trends have emerged, including praise for Hitler, promoting tropes about Jewish control and demonizing all Jews.
Invocation of Hitler and the Holocaust
Antisemitic posts referencing Hitler and claiming he was “right&rdquo…

Fighting between Israel and Hamas escalated in what has become the heaviest flare-up since the 2014 war, with extremist violence also erupting in Israeli cities with large Arab and Jewish communities. A new poll from Pew finds that most Jews believe antisemitism in America has increased in recent years and said they feel less safe now than they once did. The Department of Homeland Security’s intelligence arm is setting up a dedicated team to…

Since the start of the May conflict between Israel and Hamas, there have been numerous antisemitic incidents around the world related to the conflict. The perpetrators of these attacks deliberately targeted Jewish institutions in order to express their anger towards Israel.
Whenever anti-Israel actions target synagogues, Jewish community centers, kosher restaurants, Jewish owned businesses, or individual Jews – in other words, holding Jews…
