Show by Antisemitism Watch
Antisemitism Watch reports on alarming international developments, including German prosecutors accusing a former Hamas bodyguard of plotting attacks on European Jews, with The New York Times linking Iran's agents to assaults on Jewish institutions. We examine the resurgence of antisemitic tropes like 'Israel controls America' in political discourse, amplified by figures such as Tucker Carlson. The episode also covers the Somerville, MA City Council's controversial vote to ban municipal business with firms operating in Israel and Palestine, sparking debate over antisemitism. Additionally, a whistleblower reveals concerns about a Trump-era DOJ task force investigating universities, while incidents of targeted harassment in Philadelphia and disturbing campus sentiments are addressed. We conclude with community responses and advocacy efforts.Sources:- Algemeiner: https://www.algemeiner.com/2026/11/13/uk-gave-ex-hamas-bodyguard-asylum-now-hes-wanted-plotting-kill-jews/- jns.org: https://www.jns.org/news/u-s-news/philly-police-say-no-anti-israel-protesters-reported-being-assailed-group-claims-thats-why-it-nixed-new-ride- nytimes.com: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/11/13/world/europe/iran-attacks-europe-britain.html- ujafedny.org: https://www.ujafedny.org/news/next-time-i-visit-philadelphia/- townhall.com: https://townhall.com/news/amy-curtis/2026/11/13/college-students-we-deserved-911-n2686376- jewishpolicycenter.org: https://www.jewishpolicycenter.org/2026/11/13/campus-israel-brings-us-uk-college-counselors-to-israeli-universities/- jewishlink.news: https://jewishlink.news/touro-university-to-convene-first-ever-symposium-on-antisemitism-this-monday/- ynet - Jewish World: https://www.ynetnews.com/jewish-world/article/h1dwdeb0ge- wsj.com: https://www.wsj.com/opinion/antisemitism-made-a-zionist-of-me-8195ded9- globalextremism.org: https://globalextremism.org/post/far-right-flocks-to-nick-fuentes-america-first-movement/- JTA: https://www.jta.org/2026/11/13/ny/ezra-klein-asks-hasan-piker-about-comparing-liberal-zionists-with-nazis- JTA: https://www.jta.org/2026/11/13/politics/somerville-city-council-votes-to-divest-from-israel- jpost.com: https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-914239- newyorker.com: https://www.newyorker.com/news/the-lede/a-whistle-blower-speaks-out-about-trumps-crackdown-on-campus-antisemitism- presstv.co.uk: https://www.presstv.co.uk/Detail/2026/11/13/780632/alleged-antisemitism-in-uk-schools- jns.org: https://www.jns.org/news/antisemitism/uk-warns-london-mosque-charity-over-anti-jewish-sermons- timesofisrael.com: https://www.timesofisrael.com/new-york-woman-accused-of-antisemitic-stabbings-is-indicted-for-federal-hate-crimes/- themilitant.com: https://themilitant.com/2026/11/13/mass-protest-in-philadelphia-confronts-jew-hating-thugs/- ajc.org: https://www.ajc.org/news/we-need-more-than-dialogue-to-fight-antisemitism-0- stljewishlight.org: https://stljewishlight.org/antisemitism/van-zandt-holocaust-curriculum/Music Attribution:Intro: Intro: Music by https://pixabay.com/users/dariocoiro-54756271/ Dario Coiro from PixabayOutro: Outro: Music by https://pixabay.com/users/muzaproduction-24990238/ Aleksandr Karabanov from Pixabay
