Gaza War and West Bank Violence Fueling Global Antisemitism, Report Warns
Summarized from The Times of Israel by baba
A new report by the Institute for National Security Studies (INSS) argues that the Gaza war and West Bank violence are fueling global antisemitism and dividing Jewish communities. The report, based on discussions with Diaspora Jewish leaders, states that Israeli policies, combined with a lack of a diplomatic path forward, are leading to increased international condemnation and security threats for Jews abroad. While not blaming Jews or Israelis for antisemitism, the report suggests that Israeli actions provide material for antisemites. It recommends Israel curb inflammatory rhetoric, address settler violence, and maintain a diplomatic horizon to mitigate these negative impacts.
