In recent years, the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Working Definition of Antisemitism has emerged as the global “gold standard” in the collective effort against rising contemporary Jew-hatred, in all its manifestations.
The definition’s far-reaching impact is rooted in the broad-based consensus that has formed around it, with more than 1,100 entities worldwide adopting or endorsing it as an essential tool to delineate what constitutes prejudiced behavior toward the Jewish people, with the following countries and U.S. states among them.
@jzarif_ir - Mr. Zarif, your revisionist history fails to acknowledge the persecution many of us, including my family, faced in Iran. Zionism isn’t colonialism—it’s our fight for safety and self-determination in our indigenous homeland. Comparing Israel to Nazi Germany? It’s offensive and dangerous.
If you truly want peace, start with the truth

Yesterday in Brooklyn, a masked man attempted to snatch a young boy from his Jewish father.
Jewish communities worldwide are facing escalating threats, from Amsterdam to New York to Israel.
Today marks 400 days since October 7th. 101 hostages are still held captive in Gaza. It’s been too long. Let’s be their voice and call for their freedom. #ReleaseThemNow
86 years ago, Kristallnacht marked the beginning of the Holocaust as Jewish synagogues, homes, and businesses were destroyed in a night of terror. This brutal assault on the dignity and freedom of Jews is a reminder of the devastating path that unchecked hatred can take. Learning from the past, we stand firm today—refusing to compromise when antisemitism rears its ugly head.
Following the attack in Amsterdam, we have decided not to repost, share, or commend any statements of condemnation from politicians.
They come too late.
For years, we’ve been raising awareness about the growing threats of radical Islamism and its spread of anti-Jewish rhetoric worldwide, yet no action was taken.
From now on, we will welcome actions, not words.
Title: Disturbing Incident in Amsterdam
After a soccer match, Jews were assaulted under the cover of darkness, evoking memories of some of history’s darkest times.
A Jew left for dead.
Unconscious.
On the streets of Amsterdam in 2024.
On the eve of the sad anniversary of Kristallnacht.
History is repeating itself.
This is a strong and necessary decision by the state of Israel. UNRWA stands alone as the only relief organization known to have terrorists among its staff, to store military materials in its schools, and to have its infrastructure used for launching deadly attacks.
Do we really accept that an organization like this receives backing from the global institution charged with maintaining peace? I certainly don’t.
If there’s an urgent need, it’s to dismantle UNRWA completely. In its place, establish an organization managed by countries committed to genuinely supporting Palestinians. And ensure that international aid is never again manipulated to spread terror.
The world has failed to protect Palestinians from Hamas, and international aid has been misused, empowering those who threaten Israel instead of fulfilling its intended purpose. The UN, and especially @antonioguterres, owe Israel an apology for allowing a UN agency to foster conditions that contributed to the October 7 Massacre.
Israel announced that overnight, it successfully carried out its first strike on Iranian military facilities. All Israeli forces have now returned safely to Israeli territory.
Iran has long been the region’s largest supporter of terrorism and a leading source of global antisemitism.
This protest by Code Pink crosses every boundary of decency. In Congress, activists paraded as Jewish concentration camp prisoners, with their leader, Medea Benjamin flaunting a Star of David while pushing a naked man through the halls.
The display was antisemitic, repugnant, and a disturbing exploitation of Holocaust memory.
Accusing Israel of committing genocide in Gaza is a harmful misrepresentation that fosters hatred against Jews and Israel. Genocide involves intentional acts intended to destroy a group in whole or in part, such as mass killings or imposing life-threatening conditions. Israel’s actions in Gaza do not meet this definition. Instead, Israel takes extraordinary measures to protect civilians, including issuing millions of warnings through text messaging and leaflets for civilians to evacuate before military targets are engaged, striving to minimize civilian casualties.
Hamas complicates this by using civilians as human shields, hiding military assets in residential areas, schools, and hospitals, which makes it difficult for Israel to target them without risking civilian lives. These false accusations ignore the efforts Israel makes to avoid civilian harm and distort the reality of the conflict, contributing to antisemitic rhetoric and undermining a balanced discourse on the issue
Mentos, money, weapons, a lighter, and a UNRWA employee ID: that’s what was found on the body of Sinwar.
The fact that he was carrying a UNRWA employee ID is almost laughable, though not entirely shocking given the organization’s track record.
October 7, 2023: Never Forgive, Never Forget.
This day changed us forever. We will never be the same.
Stand with us today at 12:10 PM EST for a global moment of silence to honor the victims of the October 7 Massacre. Let our united voices echo around the world—together, we remember, together, we stand. Be a part of this powerful moment.
🚨 Update: SJP Chapters Banned 🚨
Two universities have banned their SJP chapters after months of harassing Jewish students and promoting antisemitism. This is a critical step, but more must be done.
We must demand the banning of all groups that spread hate and target Jewish students. Let’s ensure campuses are safe and respectful for everyone.
Today marks a heartbreaking 365 days since Hamas infiltrated Israel, murdering 1,200 and kidnapping 250. 101 innocent men, women, and elderly remain in captivity, enduring unimaginable pain. We cannot stay silent—demand their freedom now.
Denial of this tragedy and the rise of antisemitism have created an environment that allows hatred and violence to grow.
Zero tolerance for antisemitism is the only solution.

October 7th marks the worst attack against Jews since the Holocaust—a day that should be dedicated to unity and remembrance. It’s deeply concerning that organizations like Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) are organizing demonstrations on campuses during this solemn anniversary, fueling antisemitism and detracting from a necessary period of reflection and healing.
We call on university administrations across North America to take decisive action to prevent on-campus events that glorify terrorism or incite antisemitism. Such activities have no place in our academic institutions, especially on a day symbolizing profound loss and the urgent need to combat hatred.
We also urge law enforcement agencies to bolster security at Jewish institutions and memorial events during this time. Let’s honor the memory of those lost by standing together against antisemitism and fostering an environment of respect and understanding.

🚩Speaker at San Francisco anti-Israel protest today: "We will finish this path even if everyone is martyred."
She also spoke of continuing "The road to Jerusalem" - a known Hezbollah term referring to destroying Israel.
This isn’t solidarity.
It’s open support for terrorism.
