Ever since Hamas’s brutal pogroms of October 7, 2023, on Jewish communities in southern Israel, which sparked the ongoing war in Gaza, there has been a drastic surge in antisemitic incidents in the West, namely, the United States, Canada, and Europe.
We have witnessed hundreds of thousands of people marching in western capitals and cities – not in support of the 1,200 Israeli victims who were slaughtered in cold blood, but rather in support of Hamas terrorists. However, in the past few weeks, we have seen a new alarming development: the blast of Jew-hatred on American campuses, home to some of the world’s most prestigious universities. American campuses have been turned into breeding grounds of Jew-hatred and hatred of Western values and democracy. Campuses have turned into a second front for Hamas and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), plainly calling for violence and glorifying the Oct. 7 massacres. Protesters, many not students, burn American flags and chant “Down with the U.S.,” “We are all Hamas,” and “Burn Tel Aviv to the ground.”
