ADL and @brandeiscenter urge universities to investigate the activities of their Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) campus chapters, including for potentially violating the prohibition against materially supporting a foreign terrorist organization. 🧵 adl.org/resources/lett…

In the wake of Hamas’s Oct 7 massacre of over 1,400 people in Israel, many SJP chapters have explicitly endorsed Hamas’s actions & their armed attacks on Israeli civilians, voicing an increasingly radical call for “dismantling” Zionism on US college campuses.
In preparation for its National Day of Resistance earlier this month, SJP provided its chapters with PR materials and a toolkit that instructs, “We must act as part of this movement. All of our efforts continue the work and resistance of the Palestinians on the ground.”
To be clear: SJP is celebrating and glorifying terrorism. Universities must take steps to ensure that Jewish students’ legal rights to be free of harassment and discrimination on campus are protected.

After viewing videos from the Nakba Day event at the U.S. Capitol hosted by @RepRashida, we found that our concerns were well-founded, and we are extremely troubled by what transpired. Read on for some notable moments.🧵
Rep. Tlaib fallaciously referred to Israel as an apartheid state & claimed the Nakba never ended. Meanwhile, Academic Yousef Munayyer depicted Zionism as a nefarious ideology and accused Israel of ethnic cleansing.
Antizionist activist Prof. Noura Erakat laudingly read a quote that supported "resisting" Israel from Khader Adnan, a spokesperson for U.S.-designated terror group Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) who recently died in an Israeli prison while on hunger strike.

Today’s conviction of Enrique Tarrio and three other Proud Boys leaders for seditious conspiracy is another critically important step towards justice and accountability and a significant victory for democracy. Read on for more info 🧵
These convictions highlight the Proud Boys’ key role in the attack on the Capitol and send a clear message to members of the group who continue to threaten, disrupt and intimidate local communities that violent extremism will not be tolerated.
Throughout the seditious conspiracy trial, Proud Boys chapters across the U.S. continued to engage in disruptive activities, particularly targeting the LGBTQ+ community with alarming frequency.

🧵 Carrying a banner that read, “There will be blood,” armed neo-Nazis harassed & threatened attendees at a drag brunch in Columbus, OH, on Saturday. This chilling display comes at a time when the LGBTQ+ community in Ohio—and nationwide—is already on edge. dispatch.com/story/news/202…
Just a month ago, a white supremacist was arrested for allegedly firebombing an Ohio church, angry they were hosting a drag event. The show went on, but extremists still showed up to protest. Extremists have protested at least 35 drag shows since June 2022, according to @glaad.
The neo-Nazis behind Sat's protest were affiliated with Blood Tribe, a growing white supremacist group led by Chris Pohlhaus. This isn’t the 1st time they’ve protested a drag event in Ohio – they protested a drag queen story hour in Wadsworth in March. adl.org/glossary/blood…

NEW ADL survey found a strong correlation between conspiratorial thinking and antisemitic attitudes. Researchers looked at correlations between antisemitic beliefs and factors such as education, conspiratorial thinking and personal connections.🧵
They found that believing more anti-Jewish tropes is strongly correlated with not knowing the number of Jews who were killed in the Holocaust as well as overestimating and underestimating the number – underscoring the complex dynamics at the heart of antisemitism.
Respondents who agreed with more anti-Jewish statements

➡️ know significantly less about Jews, Judaism and Jewish history

➡️ are more likely not to have any relationships with Jewish people

➡️ show a disposition toward conspiratorial thinking

🧵 NEW: White supremacist propaganda distributions hit an all-time high last year, according to a new ADL Center on Extremism assessment. With more than 6,700 incidents, there was a 38% increase over 2021 and the highest number of incidents we’ve ever recorded.
Even more concerning – antisemitic propaganda more than doubled from 2021 to 2022. The surge was largely because of the GDL’s growth and initiation of propaganda campaigns, but the formation of several new white supremacist groups also contributed.
Propaganda was reported in every state except Hawaii, but some states were hit harder than others. Texas, Massachusetts, Virginia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, California, Utah, Florida, Connecticut and Georgia had the most activity.

Despite concerns over increased antisemitic activity, 2/25 has so far been a pretty typical Saturday in America, w/ white supremacist protests in Florida & Georgia, antisemitic propaganda in TX, CA, FL & AZ — & white supremacists monetizing their hate-filled online livestreams.🧵
Increased law enforcement presence as well as heightened community awareness helped to ensure this was a #ShabbatOfPeaceNotHate.
In the face of threats and rising #antisemitism, the American Jewish community was not cowed. We were defiant. We lit Shabbat candles, attended services, and proudly celebrated our faith. Meanwhile, extremists panicked and shared paranoid conspiracy theories.
