As the Houthis, the Islamic Republic of Iran’s terror proxy in Yemen, expands its regional campaign by threatening to close Bab-al-Mandab, a vital chokepoint for Red Sea shipping, and by attacking Saudi Arabian territory, it is important to note that these are not isolated incidents. They are part of a wider pattern of Houthi threats and attacks against Israel, the United States and their regional allies, which stems from an ideology rooted in antisemitism and anti-Americanism. The…

A Capital One Bank branch on the Upper East Side had its windows smashed and was vandalized this week with graffiti that read “DROP ELBIT,” referring to the Israeli defense company, and “PAL ACTION.” The international anti-Israel direct action group Palestine Action claimed responsibility on October 19, calling the incident “the price of complicity in genocide.” New York City Council Speaker Julie Menin posted a photograph of the Upper East Side incident on…
Anti-Israel activists around the world marked the third anniversary of the October 7 Hamas-led terror attack on Israel with protests and social media posts that frequently praised the terrorists’ actions. In addition, many called for further targeting of Zionists globally.

Vandals scrawled "Baby Raper Killers" on the Weitzman National Museum of American Jewish History in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on August 13, marking the third time in one year the museum was targeted with antisemitic or anti-Israel graffiti. These instances are representative of a troubling and worsening nationwide trend. Incidents of antisemitic harassment, vandalism, threats, offensive literature distribution and protest directed at museums and their leaders, both in person and online, more…
In some ways, summer 2026 offered Israelis and Jews a sense of relief that had been elusive since Hamas’ October 7, 2023, attack on Israel. For the first time, no hostages remained in Gaza and a ceasefire with Hamas brought a measure of calm after more than two years of war. While the possibility of renewed attacks from Iran remained a source of anxiety, the relative quiet allowed many Israelis to begin returning to familiar routines. According to Israeli tourism industry estimates,…
When ADL published its first report on 9/11 conspiracy theories in 2003, it noted that the internet allowed an “unprecedented cross-fertilization of antisemitic ideas” and that they contributed to a “new form of global antisemitism.” The report also noted that these conspiracy theories were likely to endure and “form the basis of a new antisemitic canard that will linger for decades and be used to demonize Jews and Israel.” The report was prescient. The so…
When forces led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), which had been a US-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization until its revocation on July 8, 2025, seized Damascus on December 8, 2024, Syria’s new rulers moved quickly to portray themselves as pragmatic, inclusive and ready to engage with the international community. Yet chants heard at military ceremonies, government operations and public demonstrations tell a different story. They show that explicit antisemitism and anti-Israel…
Antisemitic conspiracy theories and dehumanizing rhetoric about Jews have been a prominent feature of the 2026 election cycle.
Khalil al-Hayya was elected head of Hamas’ political bureau in July 2026, succeeding Yahya Sinwar, the leading architect of the October 7, 2023 terrorist attack against Israel, which was the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust. Hamas, which the United States has designated a Foreign Terrorist Organization since 1997, selected al-Hayya after a closely contested council vote against former Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal. Al-Hayya’s narrow victory over…

The second major anti-Israel protest at Park East Synagogue in New York City in less than a year featured a Hezbollah flag, signs equating Zionism with Nazism and terrorism, and stickers depicting a swastika inside a Star of David. The crowd protesting “The Great Israeli Real Estate Event 2026” grew to hundreds as the evening went on.

Following the April 8, 2026 ceasefire, which halted the 40-day-long U.S. and Israeli military operation against the Islamic Republic of Iran, official Iranian regime diplomatic accounts on X have posted a stream of antisemitic content to audiences of millions. In a campaign the New York Times referred to as “information warfare,” spanning at least four embassies across three continents, Iranian missions in Indonesia, South Africa, Tajikistan, and Zimbabwe have published…
A day after Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed during an attack by Israel and the United States on February 28, 2026, Alireza Arafi was appointed as the Islamic Republic of Iran’s interim leader as a member of the Leadership Council, which is tasked with fulfilling the supreme leader’s role until the Assembly of Experts elects a new leader. A review of Arafi’s public statements, especially open letters reproduced on the Guardian Council…
“F--- the jews! Find me on UpScrolled,” proclaimed one antisemitic influencer last month to her 1.3 million followers on X. UpScrolled, a social media platform launched in June 2025 in response to purported suppression of speech on other platforms, attracted just 20,000 users in its first two months, growing to 150,000 by January 2026. But following panicked and conspiratorial claims about changes to TikTok’s U.S. operating structure, UpScrolled’s user base exploded to…
Since Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attacks, analysts from the ADL Center on Extremism (COE) have tracked how some U.S.-based anti-Zionist activists and groups, including Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) chapters, are amplifying propaganda from Palestinian Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) and others to promote support for the “resistance” — a euphemistic reference to the various terrorist groups responsible for violent attacks against Israel, including  …
The explicit celebration of Hamas at a protest targeting a Queens synagogue last week serves as a stark reminder of a disturbing new reality: Pro-terror expressions are becoming openly normalized within the U.S. anti-Israel movement. The January 8 demonstration outside of Young Israel of Kew Gardens Hills in Queens, New York, was ostensibly a protest of an Israeli real estate event taking place inside the synagogue. It quickly devolved into calls to “Globalize the Intifada,” shouts…
Amid the Gaza ceasefire talks, U.S. anti-Israel activists marked the 2nd anniversary of the October 7 Hamas attack with nationwide disruptive protests and glorification of violence.
