Weekly Report – July 20

This Week's

GLOBAL ANTISEMITISM REPORT

THIS WEEK'S GLOBAL ANTISEMITISM REPORT

This week, we continued to monitor antisemitism around the world while advocating for more actions to be made.

The U.S. House of Representatives denounced antisemitism and reaffirmed longstanding American support for Israel with a symbolic resolution this week rejecting the “Apartheid” libel of the Jewish state. The measure, passed by an overwhelming 412-9 margin, was a welcome indicator that the fight against antisemitism remains a rare area of mainstream bipartisan consensus on Capitol Hill.  

Also this week, Israeli President Isaac Herzog visited Washington, D.C., where he addressed a joint meeting of the U.S. Congress and met at the White House with President Joe Biden. In his speech to Congress, President Herzog hailed the U.S.-Israel alliance and highlighted the urgent need to combat antisemitism in all its contemporary forms. “Questioning the Jewish people’s right to self-determination is not legitimate diplomacy, it is antisemitism,” Herzog noted. “Vilifying and attacking Jews, whether in Israel, in the United States, or anywhere in the world is antisemitism.”

On Sunday, prominent U.S. white supremacist and Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes called for a “holy war” against Jews at a south Florida rally. Livestreamed on Rumble, where Fuentes has more than 30,000 followers, the inciting speech comes at a time of rising antisemitism both online and off.. Earlier this year, a study published by CAM’s Antisemitism Research Center demonstrated that Gen Z, neo-Nazi “Groypers,” led by Fuentes, had organized an extensive campaign to disseminate and popularize antisemitic content on Twitter.  

In London this week, the phrase “Victory to the intifada” was shouted at a rally organized by the Revolutionary Communist Group. In Berlin, an intruder chanted antisemitic slogans at a music college. In France, neo-Nazi inscriptions were found on a monument honoring the World War II-era French Resistance. In Serbia, Israeli basketball player Yam Medar was targeted with antisemitic rhetoric after the announcement of his departure from the Partizan Belgrade club. 

In the Gaza Strip, the ruling Hamas terrorist organization opened summer camps under the banner of “Shield of Jerusalem,” offering children military and  weapons training to prepare “the generation of liberation and victory.”

This week’s global antisemitism report highlights 36 new reports of antisemitic incidents. The total includes 19 (52.78%) from the far-right, 6 (16.67%) from the far-left, 6 (16.67%) with Islamist motivations, and 5 (13.88%) unidentifiable in nature.

US WHITE SUPREMACIST AND HOLOCAUST DENIER NICK FUENTES CALLS FOR ‘HOLY WAR’ AGAINST JEWS

By CAM

Quoting lines from the Talmud, the sacred Jewish text from which antisemites often cherry-pick out-of-context excerpts to incite hatred of Jews, the 24-year-old Fuentes said, “‘If a gentile hits a Jew, he must be killed. But when a Jew murders a gentile, there will be no death penalty.’ … This is the last part, and this is my favorite part: ‘Jews may use lies to circumvent the gentiles.’ … Do you think it might be a problem that the people that are running your banks, that are making the movies your children watch … do you think it’s a problem that they believe all Christians must die? It’s a big problem. It’s a huge problem.”

ISRAEL'S HERZOG SAYS CRITICISM OF ISRAEL MUST NOT DRIFT INTO ANTISEMITISM

By PATRICIA ZENGERLE, RAMI AYYUB AND JOSEPHINE WALKER

Israeli President Isaac Herzog told U.S. lawmakers on Wednesday he welcomed criticism, especially from American friends, but said it must not cross the line into negation of Israel's right to exist. That, he said, was antisemitism. Herzog, whose position is largely ceremonial, spoke to a chamber packed with members of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, despite the absence of a handful of progressive Democrats who announced they would boycott the President's speech.

It now goes to the full House, and must be reconciled with parallel Senate legislation. Senators who focus on antisemitism hope to get similar language into the corresponding Senate bill.
