The anti-Jewish bigotry that characterizes the Boycott Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement has become even more apparent as BDS activists have created a local map in Massachusetts to target Jews for being Jews. CAMERA’s backgrounder documents the fundamental anti-Jewish nature of this movement and how it has become a haven for anti-Semites to indulge their racism.
Blood libels are nurtured by hatred and weakened by exposure. In the second of our "Blood Libel" articles, we take a closer look at how Palestinian and BDS activists, in particular, have used the pandemic to libel and incite against Israel.
In her Los Angeles Times column, Anita Chabria used a pseudo-definition of Nazism that erased Jew-hate from its core to argue that the Trump administration is flirting with Nazism while embracing white Christian nationalism. This columnist has had no problem freely highlighting antisemitic dog whistles on the right but has used qualifiers when discussing antisemitism in pro-Palestinian spaces.
Reuters' article about the cancellation of the Adelaide Writers’ Week in Australia completely erases Randa Abdel-Fattah's hateful statements that prompted the festival organizers to disinvite the author. By omitting these statements, Reuters falsely depicts the festival's move as a case of anti-Palestinian discrimination and lays the groundwork for the next attack on the Aussie Jewish community. (Update: Outreach by CAMERA and its members prompted Reuters to update its story.)
While the Guardian won’t go all the way toward celebrating Khamenei, his country’s role as an enemy of the Jewish state they loathe means that its editors will never bring themselves to encouraging the downfall of the totalitarian regime and "axis of resistance" he built.
The repeated association of “the Jews” with suspicion, violence or collective guilt suggests an editorial pattern, not technical mistakes. In the latest blunder, El País falsely links Barcelona's targeted Jewish community to Gaza "genocide."
Following an uproar, El País editors quietly removed reporting that U.S. Federal Judge Alvin Hellerstein “has made efforts to maintain an impartial stance despite being a well-known member of the Jewish community.”
Against the backdrop of deadly antisemitic attacks worldwide, Jews continue to be disproportionate targets of hate crimes in New York City. But instead of strengthening protections and increasing understanding of this deadly hatred, Mayor Mamdani and The New York Times did the opposite.
We expect the Guadian's coverage of Mamdani – the member of a radical-left political party which effectively supported Hamas’ massacre – over the next four years to resemble their coverage of the former Labour Party leader, highlighted by their editors’ near religious belief in the doctrine that socialists, progressives, and collectivists, by definition, can’t be antisemites.
A Jan. 2 Op-Ed in which former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert blames Israel for attacks on Jews worldwide is the new year's first chilling validation of the fact that Haaretz does not combat antisemitism. It fuels it.
Six years after The Times’ notorious publication of a vile antisemitic cartoon depicting Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu as a guide dog wearing a Jewish star collar leading a blind, kippah-clad President Trump, antisemitic tropes take firm root in countless media outlets globally.
In a promotional letter to readers, Haaretz English edition editor Esther Solomon provides an otherwise compelling account of antisemitism from the two political extremes. She then urges readers to support Haaretz as a means to squelch wildly inaccurate reporting and anti-Jewish conspiracy theories. It's almost as if she hasn't read her own paper, a publication favored by anti-Jewish bigots like Candace Owens.
