Fox News’ “Antisemitism Exposed” newsletter highlights various stories focused on the increasing prevalence of anti-Jewish sentiments in the U.S. and globally. In a recent issue, it covers the controversy surrounding the phrase “from the river to the sea,” which Facebook’s oversight board is considering labeling as hate speech due to its connection to a violent campaign against Israel. The newsletter also features a story about a group of anti-Israel agitators, “Queers for Palestine,” who disrupted traffic near Walt Disney World leading to their arrest. Additionally, it discusses how anti-Israel activists have caused disruptions during commencement ceremonies across the U.S. following protests over the Israel-Hamas conflict.
A prominent Middle East expert interviewed by FOX Business explains the link between the phrase “from the river to the sea” and efforts to eradicate Israel. Comedian Jon Lovitz criticized the “insane” actions of anti-Israel demonstrators, highlighting a specific incident in Florida. Campus chaos ensued as anti-Israel activists disrupted graduation events in the aftermath of protests against the Israel-Hamas conflict. These disruptions have affected the overall campus environment and have sparked debates about free speech and appropriate protest methods.
Congressman Jamaal Bowman, a member of the “Squad,” faced backlash for defending a phrase deemed antisemitic that calls for the “extermination” of Jews. Despite the controversy, Bowman maintained that the phrase “from the river to the sea” does not constitute hate speech. The United Nations made a significant revision to its data on Palestinian casualties in the Gaza war, with almost 50% fewer women and children reported killed in the conflict than previously stated. This correction sheds light on the complexities and challenges of accurately reporting casualties in conflict zones.
The “Antisemitism Exposed” newsletter also includes a quote from Harvard Divinity School student Shabbos Kestenbaum criticizing the university’s response to antisemitism, highlighting a perceived lack of support for Jewish students.
