Overview
Define antisemitism clearly, show how it appears in public life, and explain why accurate identification matters for security, civil discourse, and institutional accountability.
Why This Page Matters
We can name antisemitism precisely without flattening all disagreement into hate and without ignoring real anti-Jewish harm.
Key Points
- Antisemitism is a real and persistent form of prejudice.
- It appears in speech, institutions, vandalism, harassment, conspiracism, and violence.
- Not every criticism of Israel is antisemitic, but some criticism is.
- The page should teach recognition without turning into a polemic.
