As Israel focuses In the midst of the current war against Hamas, anti -Semitism has increased throughout the world. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) said it registered more than 10,000 antisemy incidents in the United States between October 7, 2023 and October 6, 2024. The ADL said it was the largest number of incidents recorded in a single year since it began tracing said data in 1979.
Following the deadliest day for the Jewish people From the HolocaustThe protests exploded on the university campuses and in the streets of the main cities. In fact, on October 8, 2023, only one day after the massacre and before the reprisals of Israel, a crowd met in Times Square to celebrate the attackers and condemn the victims.

“The same lethal anti -Semitism that fed the atrocities, war crimes, crimes against humanity perpetrated on October 7 is the anti -Semitism that feeds the responses to atrocities, to war crimes, to crimes against humanity perpetrated on October 7, October 7,” Israel’s special shipment by the forest of crimes of the crimes of rookie’s antisemites.
Cotler-Wunsh warns that there is a “global tsunami” of anti-Semitism, and anti-rings is a “new strain” of “a lethal virus always mutant.”
“If we track these moments in which we have seen this unfathomable reaction, we could track it to the execution: (the) blank of six of the hostages that were carried out in captivity, one, of course, being American-Israelí Hersh Goldberg-Poin,” said Cotler-Wunsh News Digital.

“And the understanding that in response to that blank execution, instead of seeing indignation in the streets, even in New York City, what we saw was support for Hamas, the executioners, if you wish. Hamas, a genocidal terrorist organization designated as such by the United States of America.”
While anti-Semitism was increasing before October 7, attacks “scammed many, many masks,” according to Cotler-Wunsh. However, she emphasizes that this is not just a problem for the Jews; This is a warning shot for humanity.
“What we have systematically seen in this normalization historically over time It is that anti -SemitismWhen it comes to this standardized conventional lethal hate, it only predicts what is a great threat to freedom, humanity and the dignity of difference. “
When talking about the protests seen in the universities of America, Cotler-Wunsh pointed out the examples of professors who praised or minimized the attacks of October 7, including Cornell professor Russell Rickford, who described the massacre as “stimulating.” She believes that schools must begin to consistently apply policies and take energetic measures against the systemic violations of these policies, such as anti-Israel manifestations observed in so many campuses.
“No rule that is not applied equally and consistently is worth the document in which it is written,” Cotler-Wunsh told Fox News Digital.

However, Cotler-Wunsh says that enforcing the rules is just the first step. She believes that institutions around the world, not only universities, need to adopt the definition of anti -Semitism of the International Holocaust memory alliance (IHRA).
The definition of IHRA states: “Anti -Semitism is a certain perception of the Jews, which can be expressed as hatred towards the Jews. The rhetorical and physical manifestations of anti -Semitism are directed towards Jewish or non -Jewish individuals and/or their property, towards the institutions of the Jewish community and religious facilities.”
While criticizing Israel is not necessarily an anti -Semitic act, even under the definition of the IHRA, “affirming that the existence of an Israel state is a racist effort” is considered an anti -Semitic by the standards of the IHRA.
The countries and institutions around the world, such as the United States and the United Nations, have adopted the definition of IHRA anti -Semitism. The combat anti -Semitism movement says that as of February 1, 2025, 1,266 entities have adopted the definition, which includes national and local governments, as well as international organizations.
