ADL's Abraham Foxman Dies at 86

Pro-establishment narrative

Foxman was one of the most consequential Jewish leaders of the 20th and 21st centuries, spending nearly 50 years fighting antisemitism with a ferocity that no diplomat could match. His work at the ADL — backed by hard data, global surveys and direct access to world leaders — proved that calling out hatred loudly and consistently actually changes minds. The surge in antisemitic incidents after Oct. 7, 2023, vindicated every alarm he ever raised.
