The form of targeted violence is driven by perpetrators primarily seeking attention, notoriety, or status within online communities, like the True Crime Community.

Conoce la True Crime Community (TCC), una subcultura online centrada en la fascinación y glorificación de criminales violentos y asesinos en masa.
A deep dive into the TCC, the online subculture built around the glorification of mass killers, and its connections to a growing number of attacks worldwide.
We have long expressed deep concern over UN Special Rapporteurs who abuse their mandates, utilize antisemitic tropes, trivialize the Holocaust, and support violence against the Jewish state, to drive political agendas. While we recognize the complexity of the removal process for Special Rapporteurs and the importance of maintaining their independence, the current system has allowed for individuals whose conduct conflicts with the UN’s core values to continue serving in these influential…
Conoce la cronología del conflicto multifrente de Israel, la crisis de rehenes y el antisemitismo global en este nuevo recurso de la ADL en español
Former Fox News top host Tucker Carlson has become a leading mainstream amplifier of antisemitic tropes and conspiracy theories, extremist voices, and anti-Israel disinformation.
The Andinia Plan is an antisemitic conspiracy theory that claims Jews want to establish a second Jewish and Zionist state in the Patagonia region, located across Argentina and Chile. This hoax is presented as a "secret plan" and, like many antisemitic conspiracy theories, is based on the myth that Jews accumulate power, money and influence in order to dominate strategic territories. The theory was first outlined by the small nationalist party Frente Nacional Socialista Argentino …
Timeline of Israel's Multi-Front Conflict, the Hostage Crisis, and Global Antisemitism
The ongoing military conflict in Iran has the potential to reshape the country, not least for its diverse range of religious and ethnic minorities. While Iran has a deep and ancient history of religious and ethnic pluralism, the 1979 revolution set in motion almost five-decades of systematic persecution against the country's minority communities and Iranian women in the name of the Islamic Republic. Since 1979, the Islamic Republic has imposed a theocratic order…

April 4, 2024 Hrag Vartanian Editor and CEO Hyperallergic Dear Mr. Vartanian: We were horrified and outraged by your cover story, “Israel Flattens Neighboring Pavilions at Venice Biennale,” (April 1). While labeled in fine print as an “April Fools” satire on your website, the piece has been flagged to us by many readers who found the article deeply insensitive and offensive. We agree with those readers – satire label notwithstanding, the article is little more…
March 14, 2024 Mathias Döpfner CEO Axel Springer SE John F. Harris Global Editor in Chief Politico Brad Dayspring Executive Vice President, Global Communications and Brand Dear Mr. Döpfner, Mr. Harris and Mr. Dayspring: We were deeply concerned by Politico’s decision to publish a highly offensive political cartoon by Matt Wuerker, depicting a “punch card” suggesting that Israel and Jews are using “centuries of pogroms, antisemitism and the Holocaust”…
To the Editor:
The attempt by Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow to conflate the Palestinian struggle with that of the civil rights movement in the U.S. is disingenuous and offensive. Let’s be clear: The Israeli-Palestinian crisis is complicated and there are few historic parallels to what’s happening in Israel and Gaza in the aftermath of the horrific Hamas massacre on Oct. 7. Equally unique and without parallels is the Black struggle for civil rights in America. From the…

Editor The Nation
Dear Don,
A few years ago, we were in touch concerning your decision to engage Mohammed El-Kurd as the Palestine correspondent for The Nation. I raised a series of concerns based on his public record of hateful rhetoric. At the time, you made the case that most of his offensive tweets and remarks, which we had shared with you in a fact sheet, were made prior to his onboarding at the Nation. You also noted that, while some of his remarks &ldquo…

To the Editor:
Re “The Tale of Two Invasions: What the Last Attack on Jenin Tells Us About Israel Now,” (July 10).
Tareq Baconi repeats the usual distortions and conspiracy theories about Israel in a clear attempt to discredit Israel among international circles. We are accustomed to seeing these spurious accusations from Palestinian and pro-Palestinian propagandists: Israel is an apartheid state. Israel rejects a two…
Since the October 7, 2023 attack by Hamas against Israel, the inverted red triangle has, in many cases, come to signify support for violent Palestinian resistance against Israel and against Zionists and Jewish people more broadly. It is used both offline and online, sometimes in the form of an emoji (🔻), and has been spraypainted on Jewish homes and institutions, often alongside antisemitic and threatening slogans. The symbol first appeared in propaganda videos from…
Re: “The ADL is wrong to attack the NYT’s brave investigative reporting on Hasidic yeshivas” by Ruth Messinger
To the editor:
While we greatly respect and value constructive feedback from Ruth Messinger on issues affecting the Jewish community, we were surprised by her suggestion that the ADL went too far in asking The New York Times to carefully consider the potential for its series of investigative articles on the Hasidic community’s education system to…
