Jewish groups sound alarm on rise in antisemitic hate crimes amid tensions between Israel, Hamas

 Five Jewish groups penned a letter to President Joe Biden on Friday expressing concern about the recent surge of antisemitic hate crimes in the U.S. amid the military confrontation between Israel and Hamas, which agreed to a cease-fire this week.

The American Jewish Community, the Anti-Defamation League, the Jewish Federations of North America, Hadassah and the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America called on the president to use his platform to condemn antisemitism and take a number of actions to combat anti-Jewish hate in the U.S.

"We are grateful for the current ceasefire in the conflict between Israel and the terrorist organization Hamas, but we fear that the way the conflict has been used to amplify antisemitic rhetoric, embolden dangerous actors and attack Jews and Jewish communities will have ramifications far beyond these past two weeks," the groups wrote.

  1. Oh my goodness. Wasn't getting rid of the arch-Jew hater Trump supposed to end all this? Wasn't it his fault that anti-Semitism was spiking in North America? Oh wait...

  2. Nolte: Democrat-Run Cities Can’t or Won’t Protect Jews and Asians from Hate Crime Explosion

    ...How in the world is it possible that out in Rural MAGA Land where all the supposed “racists” live, Jews and Asians are much safer than in these Deep Blue Utopias, where Democrats govern without Republican interference, where Democrats all live?

    The asking of the question answers the question.

    Even though they are vastly outnumbered out here, Asians and Jews are not being targeted and hunted in Rural MAGA Land… Quite the contrary, out here, where all us supposed racists live, racial minorities are safe and welcome.

    Nope, it’s in these Deep Blue Utopias like San Francisco and New York City where Asians and Jews are being targeted and hunted, and this is why fake journalists like Jake Tapper have suddenly found their hate crime high horse too uncomfortable to climb up on.

    ...This hate crime crisis is not an America problem. This is a Democrat-run city epidemic and in these Deep Blue Utopias, Democrats leaders either don’t know how to stop it or don’t want to stop it.

  4. The liberals keep screaming about Neo-Nazis to distract from people realizing that the actual threat is from them.

  5. I believe that the actual threat is from the radicals that are empowered by the liberals and progressive socialists.

  6. So you are claiming that Antifa is more dangerous than the white supremacists?!

  7. I agree that there is bigotry and violence on both sides of the fence, both White Nationalist and Antifa.

    However Nolte pointed out that the hate crimes are all happening where Democrats live and where Democrats govern.

    How do you explain this "coincidence"?

  8. Yes, Antifa is more dangerous for 3 reasons.
    1) numbers - seriously, when's the last time enough NeoNazis got together to take over an entire neighbourhood, chase the police out and call it an "autonomous zone"? Who's harrassing Jews on university campuses across America? Hint: Not the alt-right
    2) influence - the press, the same press that censors Trump but gives platforms to Hamas, underreports on Antifa and the damage it does specifically to give the impression that only the alt-right is dangerous. Manipulation that you seem to fall for.
    3) No respectable Republican leader (excluding the crackpots way down the totem pole) endorses the alt-right. Lots of high ranking Dem's love Antifa.
