Antisemitism and Anti-Zionism
This is a short video explaining the connection between antisemitism and anti-Zionism.
Who defines antisemitism? Not AJ+
AJ+ is funded by the government of Qatar and has no right to define what antisemitism is.
Deadly Exchange
Anti-Israel extremists work hard to falsely blame Israel and Jewish groups for the horrific killing of George Floyd and other incidents of police brutality. Their lies and efforts to scapegoat don't just harm Jews. This campaign of hate distracts from real problems in society and makes it harder to solve them

Minimizing Antisemitism
When antisemitism is present, whether overt or subtle, it is the job of allies as well as those affected to call attention to it and promote education, rather than minimizing the problem.
Normalization of antisemitism
While it is not always easy to distinguish hate speech from legitimate discourse, it is crucial to speak out against negative stereotypes so they don’t become normalized and accepted.
Listening to Jews about Antisemitism
Antisemitism is an age old and persistent form of hate, and Jews should be encouraged to speak out rather than dismissed when they raise concerns about it.
Normalization of antisemitism
Antisemitism is a form of hate that sometimes works by making bigotry seem normal or legitimate. As a minority group, Jews deserve to be taken seriously when they say they are being marginalized.

The Blood Libel

Holocaust Denial
The Holocaust was a genocide committed against Jews by the German Nazi regime between 1941-1945. Denying that it happened or minimizing it is antisemitism.
"Criticism of Israel is never antisemitic"
While criticism of Israel is not automatically antisemitic, anti-Israel and anti-Zionist rhetoric fuels hatred of Jews far too frequently.
Lies about US-Israel exchanges
Blaming Israel for police brutality in America is an antisemitic lie. US-Israel police exchange programs help senior officials prevent terrorist attacks and have nothing to do with street arrests.
Deadly Exchange lies
There is no empirical evidence that US-Israel exchange programs for senior law enforcement officials have led to a single police killing in the US.
Debunking Deadly Exchange
Law enforcement agencies often reach out to organizations such as the ADL to improve community relationships and receive anti-bias training.

Scapegoating Israel for George Floyd's Murder
