April 21, 2025 Letters to the Editor Jewish News Syndicate To the Editor: Dr. Andrew Bostom and Morton Klein conflate facts and distort findings in their attempt to reach their preconceived conclusion that ADL is “hiding” data about antisemitism among Muslim communities (“ADL quietly purged data on European Muslim antisemitism,” April 18). Nothing could be further from the truth. Our surveys have always tracked this data, and our aim has always been to be fully…

June 18, 2022 In an email correspondence to "1984.is", a web hosting service based in Iceland, ADL urged the company to remove the antisemitic "Mapping Project" immediately.
