Fox News’ “Antisemitism Exposed” newsletter covers stories on the increasing anti-Jewish prejudice both in the United States and around the world. The top stories in a recent newsletter include Iran’s fear of President-elect Trump and the plummeting Iranian currency, an attack on two Jewish students at DePaul University, and the removal of a controversial quilt panel artwork from the United Nations that called for the extermination of Israel.
Following President-elect Trump’s victory, Iran is now faced with the prospect of dealing with a leader they have been trying to assassinate for years. Tehran had reportedly interfered in the U.S. election in favor of Vice President Kamala Harris. Iran experts believe that the Islamic Republic is now terrified at the thought of a Trump presidency. Meanwhile, pro-Israel activists are welcoming Trump’s election as a positive development for Israel.
In a disturbing incident, two Jewish students at DePaul University in Chicago were targeted by masked attackers on campus. The students were punched but declined medical treatment for their injuries. It is reported that the students were showing support for Israel, although the exact circumstances of the attack remain unclear. This incident highlights the ongoing challenges faced by Jewish individuals on college campuses.
The United Nations faced backlash and removed a quilt panel artwork that depicted a map of Israel resembling a watermelon, with phrases calling for the country’s extermination. The painting, with a Palestinian flag in one corner and phrases like “From the River to the Sea” and “Will be Free,” sparked controversy and accusations of promoting violence against Israel. The removal of this artwork reflects the sensitivity and complexity of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on the international stage.
A guest editorial by Ofri Bibas Levy shares the heartbreaking story of her brother and his family, including a newborn boy, being kidnapped by Hamas. Her sister-in-law’s parents were murdered on the same day, and she has been separated from her family for a year. Levy’s narrative sheds light on the human toll of conflicts in the Middle East and the lasting impact on innocent individuals caught in the crossfire.
The newsletter also includes a quote from Ofri Bibas Levy, expressing the pain and uncertainty she has experienced since her brother’s family was taken hostage by Hamas terrorists. She reflects on the year of separation from her family, her nephew whom she has not seen, and the holidays and birthdays they have missed celebrating together. Levy’s words offer a poignant reminder of the personal tragedies that often accompany larger geopolitical conflicts.
