List of antisemitic incidents in the United States

Last updated

Since 2016, violent and widely reported incidents, and increase reports of less severe antisemitic incidents on college campuses, ignited concerns that antisemitism in the United States was reemerging after decades of apparent decline. According to scholars, the rise in incidents point to a fundamental shift in the nature and prevalence of antisemitism in United States, portending a return to an era where physical intimidation of Jews was routine and antisemitic discrimination was explicit and pervasive. [1]

Groups such as the AMCHA Initiative and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) have shifted to cataloguing antisemitic incidents, including graffiti, harassment, vandalism, posts on social media, assaults, and threats to Jewish institutions. [1] According to the ADL, there were almost 3,700 antisemitic incidents in the United States in 2022, the highest level since the group began recording them in 1979. [2]

The following is a list of select antisemitic incidents in the United States.

Grant claimed during his 1868 Presidential campaign that he had issued the order without prejudice against Jews as a way to address a problem that "certain Jews had caused". [152]

Anderson and Francine Graham. The assailants also wounded one customer and two police officers before being killed by police during an ensuing shootout. A Jersey City Police Department detective had also been shot and killed by the assailants at a nearby cemetery just before the grocery store attack.

On the night of December 28, 2019, the seventh night of the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah, a masked man wielding a large knife or machete invaded the home of a Hasidic rabbi in Monsey, Rockland County, New York, where a Hanukkah party was underway, and began stabbing the guests. Five men were wounded, two of whom were hospitalized in critical condition. Party guests forced the assailant to flee by wielding chairs and a small table. Three months after the stabbing, the most severely injured stabbing victim, Rabbi Josef Neumann, aged 72, died of his wounds.

In 2018 and 2019, reports of antisemitism in the United States was reported to have increased compared to previous years according to statistics collected by both the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Anti-Defamation League. These statistics include both violent antisemitic attacks on Jews and cases of harassment.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Colleyville synagogue hostage crisis</span> 2022 hostage taking at Colleyville synagogue

The Colleyville synagogue hostage crisis was a 2022 incident where a 44-year-old British Pakistani, armed with a pistol, took four people hostage in a synagogue in Colleyville, Texas, in the United States.

Since 7 October 2023, numerous violent incidents prompted by the Hamas attack on Israel and the ensuing Israel–Hamas war have been reported worldwide. They have accompanied a sharp increase in global antisemitism and Islamophobia, as well as anti-Israeli sentiment and anti-Palestinian sentiment or broader anti-Arab sentiment. Other people and groups have also been targeted, such as the Sikhs, who are commonly mistaken to be Muslims by their attackers.

Following the Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October 2023 and the outbreak of the Israel–Hamas war, there has been a surge of antisemitism around the world. Israeli Immigration Minister Ofir Sofer has stated that Israel is bracing to expect a large wave of Jews migrating to Israel due to the rising antisemitism around the world.
