The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is alarmed by a sharp escalation in disruptive and exclusionary activity on college campuses as the 2025-26 academic year comes to a close. While anti-Israel encampments have resurfaced (and were subsequently dismantled) at institutions such as Occidental College and Smith College, they represent just one aspect of a broader and concerning trend.

The theory was first outlined by the small nationalist party Frente Nacional Socialista Argentino …
Timeline of Israel's Multi-Front Conflict, the Hostage Crisis, and Global Antisemitism
The ongoing military conflict in Iran has the potential to reshape the country, not least for its diverse range of religious and ethnic minorities. While Iran has a deep and ancient history of religious and ethnic pluralism, the 1979 revolution set in motion almost five-decades of systematic persecution against the country's minority communities and Iranian women in the name of the Islamic Republic. Since 1979, the Islamic Republic has imposed a theocratic order…

Since the October 7, 2023 attack by Hamas against Israel, the inverted red triangle has, in many cases, come to signify support for violent Palestinian resistance against Israel and against Zionists and Jewish people more broadly. It is used both offline and online, sometimes in the form of an emoji (🔻), and has been spraypainted on Jewish homes and institutions, often alongside antisemitic and threatening slogans. The symbol first appeared in propaganda videos from…

Dear President Pringle, We are writing to express our deep concerns about the growing level of antisemitic activity within teachers’ unions, particularly since the Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel on October 7, 2023. Passage of New Business Item (NBI) 39 at the National Education Association (NEA) Representative Assembly this past weekend, which shockingly calls for the boycott of the Anti-Defamation League, is just the latest example of open hostility toward Jewish educators,…
We can’t be blind to the rise of antisemitism since Oct. 7, 2023 In his Feb. 13 op-ed, “Why criticizing Israel is not antisemitic,” Mark Golden distorts the difference between criticism of Israel’s policies — a time-honored tradition both here in the United States and in Israel — and “anti-Zionism.” Anti-Zionism — the elimination of the Jewish state and, by extension, the essential erasure of those who live there —…
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…

The UN World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, held in Durban, South Africa from August 31 to September 7, 2001, brought together over 12,000 representatives from 194 states and organizations to forge a common agenda against discrimination. Over two decades later, the “Durban process” has come to symbolize the United Nation’s polarization over antisemitism and anti-Zionism, a form of antisemitism which opposes the…

During the 2023-2024…
