Yes—there were some profound and disturbing shifts in antisemitism between November 2024 and June 2025, both in scale and ideological dynamics: 📈 A Historic Surge in Global Antisemitism Incidents rose by 107.7% in 2024 compared to 2023, marking the most severe wave since WWII. Over 6,300 incidents were documented globally, with Jewish communities facing violence, harassment, and systemic discrimination. 🔄 Ideological Realignment Far-left ideology became the dominant driver, accounting for 68.4% of incidents—a 324.8% increase from the previous year2. In contrast, far-right incidents dropped by 54.8%, now comprising just 7.3% of the total. Islamist-motivated antisemitism also rose by 44.3%, showing a convergence of radical ideologies. 🇺🇸 U.S. Attitudinal Shifts A study found that 26 million more Americans moved toward antisemitic beliefs over 18 months. The percentage of U.S. adults who view Jews as a societal threat jumped from 12% to 20%. The number of people classified as “Haters” or “Leaning Haters” rose from 15% to 25% of the population. 🧠 Framing and Perception The line between anti-Zionism and antisemitism became increasingly blurred, with anti-Israel rhetoric often serving as a cover for hate. Holocaust denial and trivialization also saw a troubling uptick, undermining historical truth and memory.

SPEAKING OUT Obama OMB director says Democratic Party is ‘becoming increasingly antisemitic’ Peter Orszag, now the CEO of Lazard, urged party leadership to do more to confront growing extremism from within SAUL LOEB/AFP via Getty Images SAUL LOEB/AFP via Getty Images Peter Orszag (L), director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), attends a meeting with President Barack Obama (R) at the White House on June 29, 2010. By Jake Schlanger June 26, 2025 SHARE Former Obama administration OMB Director Peter Orszag, the CEO of Lazard, sounded an alarm Thursday morning over the leftward direction of the Democratic Party, especially when it comes to its handling of antisemitism. He spoke out on CNBC after far-left state Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani won the Democratic nomination for New York City mayor. “I’m saddened to say the Democratic Party is becoming increasingly antisemitic and anti-capitalism… Turning away from your principles and towards antisemitism never works,” Orszag said on CNBC’s “Money Movers” this afternoon. He went on: “The Democratic candidate for mayor has embraced the global intifada idea. The DCCC has distributed fundraising emails from a senior Democratic operative [James Carville] saying Jewish donors [are] only interested in tax cuts. The senior leadership in the party seems to have cognitive dissonance on Israel. It’s problematic.” Orszag has been a major figure in the Democratic Party for years, most prominently serving in the Obama administration as director of the Office of Management and Budget. As antisemitism increases, he said that he had expressed these concerns to Democratic leadership, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who has faced his own challenges navigating the ideologically divisive New ew York City mayoral race. “I think the New York mayoral race is only part of the broader question. I think the Democratic Party needs to decide what it stands for,” Orszag said. “It needs to decide what its moral principles are and that includes [regarding] antisemitism.” When asked about how Lazard would respond to a Mamdani mayorship, he said the bar for the company leaving was “very high” and would depend on what policies are implemented

I will be perfectly honest: Some places in the United States including Harvard University look very suspicious regarding Jew Hate. On the positive side this last few years have strengthened my belief in God. I hope you all start to feel better vibes.

When it comes to cities with the strongest records in combating antisemitism, the data is nuanced. While most reporting focuses on where antisemitism is rising, a few cities stand out for their low incident rates, proactive policies, and strong community engagement: - Oklahoma City, OK – According to ADL data, Oklahoma reported zero antisemitic incidents in some recent years. While the Jewish population is small, the low incident rate combined with community outreach efforts makes it notable. - Anchorage, AK – Alaska also reported no antisemitic incidents in several audits. Again, the population is small, but the absence of reported hate incidents is significant. - Miami Beach, FL – Despite Florida’s size, Miami Beach has taken a leadership role by adopting the IHRA definition and launching public education campaigns to counter antisemitism. - Wichita, KS – This city endorsed the IHRA definition and has worked closely with local Jewish organizations to promote tolerance and inclusion. - Boise, ID – While Idaho has had isolated incidents, Boise has been recognized for interfaith collaboration and swift responses to hate crimes. It’s worth noting that cities with larger Jewish populations often report more incidents, not necessarily because they’re less safe, but because there’s more visibility and more robust reporting systems. So a low number doesn’t always mean a city is doing better—it might just mean fewer people are speaking up. Would you like to explore which cities have launched the most innovative education or law enforcement initiatives to fight antisemitism

In defending Jews and Israel I dug hard and often for information that was published here and on X. Together it amounts to one of the most horrifying documents in history. I don't think it would count as an official document, but it is definitely not for children to read or watch. I don't even want to collect it and put it into one package. My role was to get the info and get it out in a timely manner. I had no way of knowing how morally objectionable the material would be.
