Christiaan Hetzner Fortune, May 16, 2023 “The comparison to Magneto is problematic to contemporary comics fans, as the character has joined the roster of the X-Men multiple times, most recently in 2019, when (spoiler alert) he co-founded a breakaway mutant island nation called Krakoa, which some critics have compared to Israel.” Elon Musk lashed […]

Caroline Glick Algemeiner, May 21, 2023 “Demonizing all of Soros’s critics as antisemites is not only an insult to Jews. It is a way of denying Jews the language to defend themselves against real antisemites like Soros.” One of the key characteristics of our difficult times is the way in which the progressive left […]

Is it Enough The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism May 2023: The White House, May 25, 2023-– Six years ago, Neo-Nazis marched from the shadows through Charlottesville, Virginia, chanting, “Jews will not replace us.” With torches in hand, they spewed the same antisemitic bile and hate that were heard across Europe in the 1930s. […]
Mitchell Bard JNS, May 24, 2023 “The biggest red herring of the antisemites and their ACLU enablers is that adopting the IHRA will unconstitutionally deny people their right to free speech by prohibiting or chilling criticism of Israel.” We’ve been hearing for weeks how the Biden administration has been preparing a strategy to combat […]
Elizabeth Williamson NY Times, May 25, 2023 “… the Biden administration strategy recognizes the I.H.R.A. definition as the “most prominent,” while acknowledging the value of others, including one developed by the Nexus Task Force, created by the Annenberg School of Communication and Journalism at the University of Southern California.” The Biden administration released the country’s […]
Katherine Knot Inside Higher Ed, May 26, 2023 “Antisemitism has no place in our society, and I am proud that the department will continue to use all available tools to prevent and address antisemitic discrimination in our nation’s schools. No student should have to face discrimination or harassment because of their race, color, national origin, […]
Analysis Zvika Klein Jerusalem Post, May 28, 2023 “Everyone knows I love partnership but adding CAIR which embraces antisemitism is kind of like Iran serving on the women’s rights council in the UN — it should never have happened and it shouldn’t now either.” Why would the White House include an organization that has […]

INCREASING TIES LISTEN: Antisemitic Incidents Seem Disproportionately High in Canada. How Is This Possible?: Canadian Jewish News, May 1, 2023 — When B’nai Brith released its annual antisemitism report on April 17, documenting 2,769 incidents of Jew hatred in Canada last year, we wondered why the numbers were so high. After all, the Canadian government’s […]
Avi Benlolo National Post, May 5, 2023 “In the United Church and in many other “progressive” circles, there is a disconnect between understanding the antisemitism that allowed the Holocaust to happen and the anti-Israel boycotts that have re-energized modern antisemitism.” As an academic and educator in Holocaust studies, I have given much thought over […]
Dion J. Pierre Algemeiner, May 19, 2023 “Although there was an almost insignificant decrease from last year, antisemitic incidents continue to occur at an unacceptable and dangerous pace. Frankly, the amount of hate directed at Canadian Jews is shameful.” The number of antisemitic hate crimes in Toronto, Canada recorded in 2022 remained above pre-pandemic […]
Andrea Freedman Ottawa Citizen, Dec. 16, 2022 “… it came to light that Canadian MPs from all parties (Bloc Québécois, Conservatives, Greens, Liberals and NDP), including federal cabinet minister Omar Alghabra and Green Party Leader Elizabeth May, attended a reception on Parliament Hill at which a Holocaust denier and terrorist sympathizer, Nazih Khatatba, was also present.” Less than a […]
Alex Goldenberg and Becca Wertman-Traub National Post, May 13, 2023 “This is not just an American phenomenon, as similar trends have emerged in Canada.” If there is anything positive from Kanye West’s anti-Jewish screeds last fall, it is perhaps that more people are now aware of both fringe and mainstream actors who, with the […]
