The Spin

For Israelis, the Israeli diaspora, and the Jewish community, the Amsterdam violence signifies a bleak picture of the escalating dangers worldwide, emphasizing a virulent resurgence of antisemitism. Often concealed as anti-Zionism, this hatred fuels disruptions, attacks, and a climate of rising hostility. Diaspora Jews are increasingly marginalized, excluded, and subjected to unrelenting intimidation and violence, often with state sponsorship. Urgent action is needed to confront this menace before it devastates Jewish life globally once again.
