by: Kenneth Jacobson | January 31, 2015 Santa Cruz Sentinel The latest strategy being used by those who make a career of assaulting the good name of the state of Israel is to link the issue of full equality for African-Americans, as symbolized by the word “Ferguson,” with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The most recent egregious example of this took place in Santa Cruz at an event on Jan. 28 commemorating Martin Luther King Jr. sponsored by UC Santa Cruz.
The announced speaker…

by: Kenneth Jacobson | January 20, 2015 JTA The latest strategy being used by those who make a career of assaulting the good name of the State of Israel is to link the issue of full equality for African-Americans, as symbolized by the word “Ferguson,” with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. There is a long history of using legitimate American social justice issues to undermine the Jewish state. We saw it during the Vietnam War, where small contingents linked opposition to the war to…
November 20, 2014 I am honored to be in Sofia today, together with the Anti-Defamation League’s top leadership, at the invitation of President Plevneliev, who was our guest in Washington last year, as a headline speaker at our major event to celebrate ADL’s 100th anniversary.
ADL plays an active role in international affairs and we meet with many presidents, prime ministers, and foreign ministers. We could have invited the German Chancellor, the French…
November 18, 2014 Read the full report here: Khalid Muhammad In His Own Words (PDF).
Khalid Muhammad died on February 17, 2001 from the effects of a brain aneurysm. Prior to his death, his words and deeds had been the focus of increasing public attention. A former national spokesman for the Nation of Islam (NOI), Muhammad was exceedingly confrontational in his rhetoric. His supporters viewed his hateful diatribes as expressions of rage that traditional Black leaders were unable or…
November 10, 2014 A few days before Halloween, many residents of Prattville, Alabama, woke to find their front doors and yards festooned with racist fliers in plastic bags weighted down with rocks, courtesy of the Missouri-based Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan (TAK).
“The TAK of the KKK is a pro-White, Christian organization,” the fliers began. “We are dedicated to preserving our race, our heritage and our American way of life.” …

October 24, 2014 For a print-friendly version of the report, please see: Anti-Israel Activity on Campus After Operation Protective Edge (PDF)
Student groups seeking to isolate and delegitimize Israel, to stifle dialogue and control the message about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict have organized activities on college and university campuses for several years.
These efforts polarize campuses, inflame existing tensions and intimidate students. In light of the previous academic year…
October 15, 2014 When planning a special event, either on site or off site, it is important that consideration be given to the safety and security of the attendees. As Director of Security for a large urban, convention hotel, I have had the opportunity to work with many groups and the following is some of the advice I offer.
Any time a group of likeminded people comes together for a common purpose, there is an opportunity for a person or group of people to take issue and…
September 24, 2014 The Metropolitan Opera’s production of The Death of Klinghoffer has once again thrust this highly controversial and deeply flawed John Adams opera into the news.
In May 2014, the Met announced it would cancel plans for a global simulcast of the opera “in response to concerns that the opera’s broadcast to 66 countries around the world could promote anti-Semitism and legitimize terrorism.” But since then…
September 22, 2014 In the course of the time it takes me to introduce Eric Schmidt, the esteemed recipient of ADL’s International Leadership Award, Google will handle in the neighborhood of 12 million searches. Or, put another way, in one month Google - the company which Eric steered as CEO for more than a decade and now serves as Executive Chairman – handles over a 100 billion searches. Wow!
Added to that almost 6 billion hours of video on Google-owned YouTube are…
September 12, 2014 Preamble
Our struggle against the Jews is very great and very serious. It needs all sincere efforts. It is a step that inevitably should be followed by other steps. The Movement is but one squadron that should be supported by more and more squadrons from this vast Arab and Islamic world, until the enemy is vanquished and Allah's victory is realised.
Article Seven
The Islamic Resistance Movement is one of the links in the chain of the struggle against the Zionist…

ADL LETTER TO PRESIDENT ERDOGAN
July 18, 2014
His Excellency Recep Tayyip Erdoğan
President of the Republic of Turkey
Dear Mr. President,
We are alarmed by the increasingly hostile environment toward Israel in Turkey, which now is extending to include the Turkish Jewish community.
This hostility has manifested in a number of areas, including your own comments comparing Israeli leaders with Hitler and harshly criticizing Israel,…
August 19, 2014 A new English-language publication has been released by Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). Titled “Palestine: Betrayal of the Guilty Conscience,” the publication uses the recent conflict in Gaza as an excuse to renew the group’s call for lone-wolf attacks in the U.S. and the U.K.
AQAP has regularly issued such calls for lone-wolf attacks in the past, including just a few days ago when it urged followers to attack the U.S. in retaliation for military…
August 12, 2014 For the past number of years, the Hamas terrorist organization has constructed deep underground tunnels leading from Gaza into Israel and the Sinai desert. The primary purpose of the Gaza-Sinai tunnels is to smuggle in weapons - including missiles and rockets – goods, and people from Egypt into Gaza.
The Gaza-Israel tunnels have a singular, and much more nefarious purpose, namely to serve as a Hamas entry point into Israel in order to kill and kidnap Israeli civilians…

by: Jeff Robbins | August 01, 2014 Worcester Telegram & Gazette The Middle East is riddled with conflicts that are truly complicated — in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Lebanon, Egypt and between Israel and the Palestinians, for example.
Hamas' war against Israel, however, is not complicated at all.
Hamas, a jihadist enterprise, is doctrinally committed to killing Jews and to the elimination of Israel altogether. Its Charter is chilling in its lack of ambiguity on this score. And its…
August 01, 2014 A widely circulated rumor suggests that the owners of Edible Arrangements, a company that sells fruit baskets through a series of privately owned franchises across the country, are “funding Hamas” through a charitable foundation they support. Several ideologically motivated online sites are urging consumers to boycott the company due to their “ties to terrorism."
In fact, there is absolutely no truth to these unfounded assertions. While the…
by: Gary Jones | July 18, 2014 New Haven Register In the past week and a half, Hamas, the governing body of Gaza and a terrorist group as designated by both the United States government and European Union, has fired more than 1,300 missiles at Israel with the specific intention of murdering innocent civilians. Two-thirds of Israel’s civilian population — Jews, Muslims, Christians and others — are now directly threatened and unplanned refuge in bomb shelters has become a…
