My latest in PJ Media: The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has strayed a long distance from its stated mission “to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all.” For years now, it has been essentially the Leftist Anti-Defamation League, espousing far-Left cause after far-Left cause, no matter […]
Over 1,500 American rabbis agree: ADL is not ‘competent’ to combat antisemitism
Over 1,500 rabbis agree that the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is “no longer competent to identify, let alone combat, antisemitism.’” An ADL spokesperson, describing the new initiative, wrongly claimed that “Anti-Israel activism in and of itself is not antisemitism” and that they would need to “carefully evaluate” student government resolutions supporting BDS, the international Boycott, Divestment, […]
Iran Was Behind Genocidal ‘Hitler Was Right’ and ‘Kill All Jews’ Hashtags
1. Why are we getting this from a Time Magazine investigative piece instead of Twitter? Facebook usually reveals disinformation operations, Twitter either doesn’t care or sympathizes with Jihadi state trolls pushing #HitlerWasRight. 2. #HitlerWasRight is not a disinformation issue. This isn’t just Iran making the usual arguments about nuclear weapons or accusing Israel of human rights violations. This […]
Jonathan Greenblatt Destroys the ADL
Anti-Defamation League (ADL) National Director Jonathan “Greenblatt has already…trashed ADL’s reputation,” wrote Jewish News Syndicate editor-in-chief Jonathan S. Tobin in July 2020. While the ADL previously had leftist biases, “Greenblatt has steadily pushed the group farther to the left and, in so doing, more or less destroyed its reputation as being above politics,” as […]
The Anti-Defamation League ‘Has Become A Fraud’ as Leftist Biases Overwhelm Its Core Mission
“The ADL has become a fraud,” wrote Jewish-American political activist Charles Jacobs, president of Americans for Peace and Tolerance (APT), in 2019 about the Anti-Defamation League. As he and others have documented, the ADL, the “biggest Jewish defense agency” against antisemitism, has in recent decades become the “biggest failure” as leftist biases among American Jews […]
Abe Foxman Inadvertently Makes the Zionist Case for President Trump
“I have never compromised on Israeli security, and never will,” wrote then Anti-Defamation League (ADL) National Director Abraham Foxman in his 2003 book, Never Again: The Threat of the New Anti-Semitism. Yet analysis of his views on Israel and related matters in this book raises serious questions about his previously discussed endorsement of former […]
ADL Smears Foes of Jihad Terror as ‘Islamophobes,’ Gets Canceled as ‘Anti-Muslim’ Anyway
My latest in PJ Media: Anti-Defamation League (ADL) top dog Jonathan A. Greenblatt on Wednesday penned a defensive op-ed in the Forward, complaining about the cancel culture. Has the ADL, which has strayed a considerable distance from its stated mission “to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment […]
Islamic jihad plots rose by 50% in the US in 2019
What’s ironic is that the ADL authored this study, and yet smears and defames those who call attention to jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women and others. That’s part of the reason why we’re in the fix we’re in. “Domestic Islamist Extremism Arrests and Plots in US Jumped 50% Last Year, New ADL Data […]
ADL Finds Extreme Antisemitism Among Muslims in Western Europe Almost Three Times Higher Than National Rates
On November 21, 2019, the ADL released its 2019 survey data on the prevalence (occurrence) of extreme Antisemitism (defined, below) within 18 countries assessed between April 15 and June 3, 2019. Six of these countries—Belgium, The United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, France, and Italy—included a Muslim over-sample, allowing for a direct comparison of Muslims vs. Christians, […]
Houston Imam “apologizes” for call to “fight Jews in Palestine,” Jewish leaders skeptical
Houston, Texas Imam Raed Saleh Al-Rousan of the Tajweed Institute, who urged Muslims to “fight the Jews in Palestine” in a sermon in early December, now speaks out about his desire to “repair the damage caused by his remarks.” Well of course he is “apologetic.” He was busted. This is precisely what my warning to Icelanders […]
