How hatred of Jews became a common ground for Islamic terrorists and left-wing extremists, fueling domestic terrorism

The Anti-Defamation League recorded 9,354 antisemitic acts in 2024, with 58% linked to Israel or Zionism, reflecting heightened tensions from Middle East conflicts.

  • In 2024, the Anti-Defamation League recorded 9,354 antisemitic incidents, and the FBI documented 1,938 anti-Jewish offenses, constituting 69% of religion-based hate crimes.
  • After Oct. 7, 2023, protests and clashes spread across U.S. campuses and streets, with research noting much of the new antisemitism appears within progressive movements following the Hamas attack on Oct. 7, 2023.
  • Campus groups report that Hillel International documented 2,334 incidents in 2024–25, the highest since tracking began, while the ADL found 58% of 2024 incidents referenced Israel or Zionism, and the SCN tracked over 10,000 threat reports since October 7, 2023.
  • ADL survey data show Jews, who comprise roughly 2% of the population, face disproportionate targeting as Americans endorsing 'come down to the oppressor vs. the oppressed' hold more negative views about Jewish people in the U.S.
  • Recent violent episodes in 2025 showed attackers killed two Israeli Embassy staffers and an 82-year-old in Boulder, while the Israeli military campaign caused more than 70,000 Gazan deaths and damaged Beirut's southern suburbs on March 6, 2026.
