Jarrin Jackson - A Jew Hater Wearing a Christian Mask
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/jarrin-jackson-a-jew-hater-wearing-a-christian-mask

Jarrin Jackson is a blatant antisemite and alt-right candidate running for Oklahoma State Senate. Jackson frequently takes to his Telegram channel to spew his antisemitic conspiracy theories and rants masked as a love for Christianity.

In January of this year, Jackson wrote "The answer to Zionism or any other -ism is the gospel of Jesus Christ." Zionism is defined as the Jewish right to self-determination and has nothing to do with Christianity. Jackson also stated he was not "Beholden to Jews," insinuating the Jewish people maintained a type of control over others, specifically those in governmental positions.

Later that same month Jackson continued on his antisemitic rants, posting "all Jews will go to hell if they don't believe the gospel of Jesus Christ" and "I love Jews because Christ told me to, not because they deserve it."

In February Jackson stated in a video  https://rumble.com/vtte14-2-1-2022-full-trucker-messaging-war-jews-and-nazis-synagogue-of-satan.html , "I ain't owned by the Jews. I worship Jesus Christ. He's my Messiah." The video's URL address was labeled "jews-nazis-synagogue-of-satan". References to "synagogue-of-satan" are often used by antisemite Louis Farrakkhan and the Nationof Islam when referring to the Jewish people.



A few days later Jackson wrote that "the Jews" are the reason "evil exists" and then proceeded to make a list under the heading "outline and detail the evil" in his review of the documentary "Enemies Within: The Church." His list also includes Illuminati, Rothschilds, and Communists.



Next, Jackson pushed the conspiracy theory that one of the Rothschilds "applied for & was granted the patent for COVID-19 testing." Antisemitic conspiracy theorists have falsely claimed the Rothschild family is leading a group of Jewish people in secretly controlling or engineering events for their own benefit.


It's clear from his online presence Jarrin Jackson has a troubling obsession of Jewish "influence" and "control."

On August 23rd Jackson is running in the Republican Party primary against Ally Seifried and is currently polling to win.

Taurean Webb - Theological Distortion Expert 
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/w9vdwu7xq3c6l3dj6ux726d3yks9i8

Taurean Webb, a longtime anti-Israel activist, was recently hired by Indiana University as Associate Director of the Center for the Study of Global Change. Webb has promoted vile antisemitism and repeatedly dismissed or minimized concerns regarding the hatred and discrimination Jews face.

Webb is the author of the infamous "Journey Toward Justice" an antisemitic training program which teaches that the creation of Israel was "evil" and a "structural sin" and claims that American Jews have exaggerated the evils of the Holocaust in order to harm African-Americans and Palestinians. Webb goes out of his way to minimize the importance of the Holocaust and attempts to normalize it. He intentionally refers to it as the "European Jewish Holocaust" and just one of many "Holocausts" that have happened in order to erase the enormity of the largest genocide in modern history.

He also falsely frames Israel as a state that was arbitrarily created in Palestine by the United Nations as a response to the Holocaust rather than Jews returning to their ancestral homeland in waves and building communities and institutions there since the 19th century.

Webb claims "It is instructive to consider the European Jewish Holocaust narration as a tactic of racial control ... But Black bodies ... were not valuable enough to merit such attention." He continued stating "Palestinians epitomize that to whom access to these claims [of 'terror' or 'genocide' survivors] is aggressively barred," grotesquely insinuating Israel was committing genocide against the Palestinians.

Most frighteningly, Webb, in a now-removed Facebook post from November 2018, praised the "Holy Land Foundation Five" as heroes. He was referring to the five individuals who were convicted in a U.S. court for funneling millions of dollars to the terrorist organization Hamas, which controls Gaza.



Webb also outlandishly blames Jews for the white supremacist movement, stating "it has long been the case that American Jews have been a critical building block of the US white supremacist infrastructure." He attempts to label Israelis as "white" and Palestinians as "brown," ignoring the reality the majority of Jews in Israel are Mizrahi (of Sephardic descent) and brown. Webb's false and dangerous labeling ignores the fact that most Israeli Jews would be considered people of color by American standards and that all Jews are targeted by Nazis and other white supremacists who believe them to be a non-white group.

During a June 2021 bible study, Webb strongly implied that Palestinians and Arabs cannot promote antisemitic ideas because they are themselves semitic peoples. Intentionally distorting the meaning of antisemitism – a term which has always referred solely to bigotry and hatred against Jews – is hurtful and dangerous to all Jewish people as a whole.

Jarrin Jackson - A Jew Hater Wearing a Christian Mask
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/jarrin-jackson-a-jew-hater-wearing-a-christian-mask

The problem is, Xtianity is a Jewish Scam.

The promise of "Heaven", the belief that "God" actually listens to your prayers - Christians walk around in their heads, having conversations with imaginary people - most of their lives.

So they are technically Insane, but as long as they pay their taxes on time, they are allowed to run around without straitjackets.

And of course they promote the "Israel Holy Land" bullshit.

Nader Hashemi: An Iran Puppet in Denver
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/nader-hashemi-an-iran-puppet-in-denver

Nader Hashemi, Director of the Center for Middle East Studies and Assistant Professor of Middle East and Islamic Politics at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies of the University of Denver, has an extensive history of antisemitism that includes falsely demonizing Israel, defending Palestinian violence, and excusing Jew hatred. Most recently, Nader Hashemi stated on a podcast that Israel was to blame for the attempted assassination attempt on Salman Rushdie.

Joseph Korbel (1909-1977) was Czech-American of Jewish descent and his daughter Madeleine Albright served as the U.S. Secretary of State under President Bill Clinton.

In an interview with the New York Post from jail, Rushdie's 24-year-old Lebanese attacker Hadi Matar said Rushdie was "someone who attacked Islam." Rushdie is known as a harsh critic of Islam and was repeatedly stabbed by Matar in the moments before he had been due to deliver an address at the Chautauqua Institution in New York.

Hashemi has a long history of vilifying the world's only Jewish nation - Israel - while defending those that seek to eradicate it. He has previously faced criticism for suggesting that Hamas has become more moderate, stating in 2015 that there had been significant attempts by the leadership of Hamas to strike out and to present a more moderate face with respect to a political resolution of the Israel-Palestine conflict." Between 2000-2015, at the time of Hashemi's speech, Hamas was responsible for at least 37 suicide bombings against Israeli civilians, as well as thousands of rocket attacks.

During that same time, Israel saw an upsurge of knife attacks; these stabbing came to be known as the "Knife Intifada." In one of the attacks Hashemi  tweeted: "Israeli soldiers kill another Palestinian in Hebron" and linked to an article about a Palestinian who attempted to stab Israeli soldiers during a riot. The month prior, Hashemi tweeted an article validating Palestinian violence surging in Israel, while urging that the campaign of violence be "transformed" into a non-violent, international movement, for tactical reasons. Hashemi's tweet read: "EXCELLENT: The current uprising in Palestine could win — but only with international solidarity."

Hashemi often mocks and attempts to rationalize antisemitism coming from those that vilify Israel. In 2016 he tweeted -"there is another message: we will continue to colonize Palestinian land, if you criticize us we will call u anti-Semitic." Hashemi's tweet was in response to a tweet by anti-Israel propagandist Yousef Munayyer, who also accused Israel of inappropriately threatening elected U.S. officials that were critical of Israeli policy.



In 2005 Hashemi claimed Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's demand that Israel "must be wiped off the map" was rooted "not in ancient ethnic hatreds or Muslim anti-Semitism, but primarily in the trauma and enduring legacy of European colonialism and Israel's perceived connection with this legacy." Ahmadinejad — in his speech calling for Israel's erasure — also said: "Anybody who recognizes Israel will burn in the fire of the Islamic nation's fury, [while] any [Islamic leader] who recognizes the Zionist regime means he is acknowledging the surrender and defeat of the Islamic world."

Nader Hashemi is also a supporter of the antisemitic Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement having signed and promoted a pro-BDS petition calling for a boycott of Israel and shared links on Twitter endorsing the boycott of Israeli academic institutions.

Dulla Mulla - The Jew Targeting Prankster
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/dulla-mulla-the-jew-targeting-prankster

Dulla Mulla, who's real name is Abdullah Almasmari, is a Yemenite American "comedian" who frequently targets and harasses Jews in the name of pro-Palestinian activism to showcase on his social media platforms.

In 2020, Almasmari drove around various Jewish neighborhoods in Michigan and filmed himself giving the Arabic gesture for "f*ck you" to an Orthodox Man he refers to as "yahoodi" (Jew in Arabic) and then continues to yell "Free Palestine" at the innocent man. According to the IHRA definition of antisemitism, holding Jews halfway around the world responsible or in some way guilty of the Israel/Palestinian conflict is deemed antisemitic.


In 2021, Almasmari posted a video to his Instagram and TikTok accounts featuring him following around Jewish shoppers in a Kosher supermarket in Dearborn, asking them to say "Free Palestine" on video for him. After being asked to leave, he continues to film himself accosting shoppers standing outside, leading to a short exchange in Arabic with a male shopper who told him that there was "no Palestine." Almasmari started swearing at the man in Arabic - "May your mom be cursed... May your d*ck be cursed" and ended the exchange with "f*ck you."

After receiving thousands of responses to his targeted harassment of Jewish shoppers, he replied "DM filled with Jews, antisemitic my ass." A few days later Almasmari uploaded another video to his social media accounts mocking those that accused him of antisemitism and appeared to throw up a Hitler sign while swearing in Arabic.



Almasmari also likes to ridicule Jews and filmed himself dressed as an observant Jew. In a May 2021 Instagram video, he faux mocked a conversation between a Jew and Palestinian, playing both characters himself. During the video he denies the thousand plus years of Jewish connection to Israel and chants in Arabic "Palestine, Palestine, spit on you Israel!"



This past week, Almasmari caused outrage once again after harassing Orthodox Jews in Brooklyn. This time, however, he became the butt of his own "jokes" as a Haredi man trolled him back. "What about the war that's going on now between Israel and Palestine?" asked Almasmari.

Joshua Dan Nunes - Marine Turned Madman
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/joshua-dan-nunes-marine-turned-madman

Joshua Dan Nunes of Jacksonville, Florida is a former U.S. Marine and founder of a new neo-Nazi group - NatSoc Florida (NSF). Based in Duval County, Florida, Nunes and NSF have been orchestrating antisemitic events since mid-2022.

This past week on the 21st anniversary of 9/11, Nunes caused nationwide outrage as he and a small handful of NSF members were spotted in Jacksonville standing on the I-95 overpass holding up a vile antisemitic banner blaming the September 11th attacks on Jews and claiming "Communism is Jewish".



In August, Nunes and other members of NSF gathered on a Tampa overpass. They held several banners with white supremacist and antisemitic language that read "End abortion, save white babies," "Communism is Jewish" (with images of a hammer and sickle and a Star of David), and "Problem - Solution" (showing images of a hammer and sickle and a Star of David next to images of the group's logo and a swastika). They also displayed a swastika flag.



In July 2022, Nunes protested outside of Turning Point USA's student conference in Tampa; despite being masked, StopAntisemitism analysts identified him via a tattoo on his right arm (circled in yellow).

Turning Point spokesperson Andrew Kolvet stated, "They have nothing to do with TPUSA, our event, or our students. Our students took the mature route and vacated the space the Nazi flag holders were in. Once that happened, they left."



Also in July, Nunes participated in an antisemitic flyer drop campaign in the Jacksonville area. Multiple neighborhoods reported receiving his neo-Nazi propaganda of Jewish power and control.



In June 2022, Nunes and another NSF member demonstrated outside a Jacksonville local eatery wearing shirts with swastikas and holding antisemitic signs that read "Child groomers work here" and "Judaism allows child rape".



According to reports, antisemitic incidents in Florida have risen more than 50% since last year. An overlapping network of white supremacists has emerged throughout the state, with the antisemitic Goyim Defense League (GDL) at its center. GDL's founder - Jon Minadeo II -has been featured frequently by StopAntisemitism.

This network, which often collaborates in planning and executing propaganda distribution campaigns, banner drops, and in-person harassment campaigns, now includes Joshua Dan Nunes.

Nunes, like Minadeo, toes the line between free speech and speech that incites violence against others. With antisemitic assaults increasing across America, we must be extra vigilant in monitoring bigots like Nunes.

Amer Zahr - Jew Hating Jokester
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/amer-zahr-jew-hating-jokester

Michigan-based Amer Zahr is a comedian, former Bernie Sanders surrogate, and rabid antisemite who is best known for replacing Israel with "Palestine" on a world map in Rashida Tlaib's office (pictured below) after she was elected to Congress. Zahr cheerleads for terrorists such as Hamas and Hezbollah and often spreads hatred and misinformation of both the Jewish people and the Jewish nation.



During a 2017 Arab American News-hosted rally in Dearborn, Michigan, Zahr referred to the Jewish nation as a "white supremacy movement from Europe," ultimately denying the Jewish people's 5,000+ year connection to Israel and erasing the millions of Mizrahi and Sephardic Jews that comprise the majority of Jewish people in Israel today. Zahr's attempts to rewrite history and deny Jewish history in order to delegitimize restored Jewish sovereignty, attack Israel's legitimacy, and portrays Jews as foreign to the Land of Israel is blatant antisemitism.

During the same rally, Zahr stated: "we say very proudly, that we stand with every resistance against Israel and every resistance against the occupation ... whether it's called Hamas, whether it's called Hezbollah."

Zahr has also glorified convicted terrorists and murderers such as Rasmea Odeh, who was involved in the brutal murder of two Jewish college students when she placed a bomb in a crowded Jerusalem supermarket.

In a 2021 tweet, Zahr posted: "Who can say they were lucky enough to serenade the amazing Rasmea Odeh? I can!" Odeh was booted out of the United States after being found guilty of immigration fraud for concealing her criminal record and her 10-year prison term.



A month prior, Zahr tweeted: "My two Palestine Valentines. Fatima, Leila... Will you marry me?" Fatima Bernawi was a terrorist with the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) and was responsible for a 1967 attempted bombing of a crowded Jerusalem movie theater; she was sentenced to life in prison. Leila Khaled was a leading member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and participated in the hijacking of both TWA Flight 840 in 1969 and El Al Flight 219 in 1970. Khaled has said that the second intifada failed because it was not violent enough, has advocated for the use of children in terror activities, and compared Zionists to Nazis.



Just last week, Zahr boarded a flight wearing a shirt emblazoned with a photo of Leila Khaled, encouraged others to adorn Palestinian terrorists known for hijacking airplanes when flying, and posted to Instagram stories: "Even in the airport? Yes!"



As antisemitism was skyrocketing in 2021, Zahr outrageously instructed activists to not condemn Jew-hatred or terrorism, tweeting: "This is a message to all the activists and leaders out there that are condemning antisemitism and condemning terrorism right now. Stop it. Stop. You are not helping alright... You are playing their games... It's a distraction." During 2021, antisemitic incidents more than doubled when compared to the year prior.

Amer Zahr is not only an atrocious Jew-hater but also reportedly a serial sexual harasser of women. Last month, fellow Palestinian comedian Jennifer Jajeh accused Zahr of sexual harassment, leading to nearly two dozen women coming forward with their own allegations against him. A sample of Jajeh's accusation is pictured below.



On October 16th, Zahr is scheduled to perform his comedy routine and spread his Jew-hatred at the Hilton Raleigh North Hills.

Kanye - Cancel or Keep?
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/kanye-cancel-or-keep

Kanye West is a billionaire rapper and fashion mogul who was banned from both Instagram (Meta) and Twitter this past week after posting antisemitic content and making threats against the Jewish people. Contrary to what many people think – including those that are defending his behavior as an isolated incident due to his well-known mental health issues and recent divorce – Kanye has a long history of antisemitism.

During a December 2013 interview with 'The Breakfast Club' on Power 105, Kanye used the antisemitic trope that all Jews are rich and well-connected. Kanye stated that former President Obama endured difficulties in office because "Black people don't have the same level of connections as Jewish people" and that "Jewish people" are handed jobs because of these connections rather than having to "work for it." During this same interview, he also stated "we ain't Jewish, we don't got money." According to Forbes, Kanye's net worth currently exceeds $2 Billion USD.

Former TMZ reporter Van Lathan came forward this week to share that Kanye said he "loved Hitler and the Nazis" during a 2018 podcast but TMZ editors were forced to remove that part of the segment. Lathan stated, "I've already heard him say that stuff before."

In July 2020, during his failed Presidential bid, Kanye bizarrely suggested that the Jewish State of Israel pay women in Africa $1 million USD for every child they carry to term, perpetuating antisemitic tropes of Jewish wealth.

Later that year, Kanye contributed $100,000 to antisemitic rapper M-1 (aka Lavonne Alford). Alford often criticized U.S. aid to Israel being used to defend Jews and has praised PLFP terrorist Leila Khaled as a "revolutionary." Khaled participated in the hijacking of two airplanes that resulted in the death of a steward. This was not the first time Kanye would promote an antisemite: in 2021, he featured notorious Jew hater 'Jay Electronica' on his new album. Electronica's prior social media postings include "vile teachings of the Talmud" and claiming Black people were the "true children of Israel."

In a November 2021 interview with 'Drink Champs,' Kanye claimed that Black people were the actual Hebrews, the chosen people of the Bible, and descendants of the 12 tribes of Israel. These types of conspiracy theories and antisemitic rhetoric is often used by antisemites like Louis Farrakhan, someone Kanye has a relationship with dating back years.

   2015 Kanye West with Kim Kardashian meeting with antisemite Lois Farrakhan   

This past week, Kanye's obsession with the Jewish people culminated with a series of grossly antisemitic rants on social media following his troubling interview on the Tucker Carlson show where the rapper claimed the Abraham Accords were orchestrated by Jared Kushner in order "to make money." In the same interview, Kanye stated he wished his children celebrated Hanukkah instead of Kwanzaa in order to learn "financial engineering" and again perpetuated the antisemitic trope that Black people were the real Jews. Fox removed/edited these parts of the segment out, drawing criticism.

Kanye's recent posts and tweets, which caused him to be locked out of his accounts on both platforms, included the following:

- I'm going death con [Defcon] 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE

- I can't be antisemitic because black people are actually Jew also

- You guys [Jews] have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda



Then this past Wednesday, Kanye West showed no remorse as he doubled down on his recent antisemitic comments, saying he's happy that he crossed the line and claimed he is just calling out Jews for bad business!

With an audience on Twitter totaling 31.4 million - more than double the number of Jews globally - we must ask ourselves if social media companies should take more responsibility to stop antisemitism online. Comments similar to Kanye's have lead to real world violence such as the Jersey City shootings in which two members of an extremist Black Hebrew Israelites sect murdered a police officer and then killed three civilians in a Kosher supermarket.

Jon Minadeo II UPDATE - The White Supremacist Pushing Kanye
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/jon-minadeo-ii-update-goyim-defense-league

StopAntisemitism featured white supremacist Jon Minadeo II in August 2020 after he and his group - the 'Goyim Defense League' (GDL) - dropped a massive antisemitic banner that read "the Jews want a race war" on the busy 405 highway in Los Angeles. After StopAntisemitism's feature of Minadeo and our call to action, GDL's website hosting company, EPIK, and streaming platform, Bitchute, both dropped the hate group for violating community guidelines.



Minadeo however was not deterred; his and the GDL's actions over the past few years have been more brazen and dangerous, encouraging and emboldening more antisemites like himself to join their bigoted movement.

Organizing on GAB (run by neo-Nazi Andrew Torba) and their website GoyimTV.tv, whose hosting was moved to Cloudflare, Minadeo brainwashes hundreds of young men into hating Jews, convincing them that Jewish people control the world and are the main root of society's problems, from the immigration crisis to the abortion debate.

Minadeo and the GDL organize flyer campaigns targeting and harassing Jews across the U.S., covering nearly a third of our country with thousands of flyers vilifying the Jewish people. More than SEVENTY harassment campaigns orchestrated by the GDL have been reported in 2022 alone, with two months left in the year.



Minadeo doesn't stop at leaflet campaigns – he takes an even bolder approach in his own harassment of Jews. In May of this year, just one week after the racially-charged mass shooting in Buffalo, New York, Minadeo dressed up as an Orthodox Jewish man, along with two of his followers dressed as German guards, and harassed guests outside of a Beverly Hills Hilton where a Bar Mitzvah celebration was happening inside. Minadeo ran around yelling "the Nazis are coming" while the guards pretended to chase him. After police were called and they were forced to leave (without a citation), they proceeded to drive around Beverly Hills with the "Great Replacement" theory graffiti on their truck - the same rhetoric the Buffalo shooter espoused in his manifesto.



In an attempt to outdo his past vile stunts, Jon Minadeo II traveled to Auschwitz Concentration Camp memorial and held up various signs containing antisemitic hatred. Thankfully, due to Poland's strong hate laws, he was quickly arrested. His travel companion and fellow GDL member - Robert Frank Wilson (pictured below) - recently stood trial in the San Diego area for aggravated assault.


Just this past week, Minadeo and a few other GDL members took to L.A. once again to hang yet another antisemitic banner on the 405 highway that read "HONK IF YOU KNOW" and "KANYE IS RIGHT ABOUT THE JEWS", referring to the ongoing demise of Kanye West due to his atrocious antisemitic tirades and tantrums.



This past Friday evening, while the Jewish people of Los Angeles were observing Shabbat, Minadeo took to the streets once again to express his bigoted, antisemitic vitriol once again by projecting "Kanye is right about the Jews" onto the underpass of a busy road.



Law enforcement and governmental officials have so far been unable to stop Jon Minadeo II from spreading his venomous hate against the Jewish people and other minorities, dismissing these atrocious acts of harassment as silly stunts.

Kyrie Irving - A Stain on the NBA
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-8/sqh9p2do5yzrpta6vy5xx6urum2atk

Kyrie Irving - an NBA player with the Brooklyn Nets - caused outrage last week with his promotion of the grossly antisemitic documentary "Hebrews to Negroes: Wakeup Black America," based on Ronald Dalton Jr.'s book series of the same name.

Both the book and film push a horrifying agenda of the Black Hebrew Israelite (BHI) lie that Black Americans are the true descendants of the biblical Israelites and that modern day Jews are imposters who stole the religious heritage of Black people, engaging in cover-ups to prevent Black people from knowing their "true" identity.

Ronald Dalton Jr.'s film: Hebrews to Negroes: Wakeup Black America

"Hebrews to Negroes: Wakeup Black America" also includes claims of global Jewish conspiracies to oppress and defraud Black people, allegations that Jews are in part responsible for the transatlantic slave trade, and the claim that Jews falsified the history of the Holocaust to "conceal their nature and protect their status and power."

Dalton's narrative amplifies longstanding antisemitic tropes about Jewish power, control, and greed, including false claims that Jews control the media, and disputes the identity of modern Jews claiming they are "religious converts" who descended from the Khazars and have no historical connection to the land of Israel. Dalton uses "experts" like known antisemite Henry Ford to make his claims and falsely attributes quotes to Adolf Hitler throughout the book (an example is pictured below).



As outrage and pressure mounted, Irving agreed to make a "donation" to the Anti-Defamation League, who ultimately refused the financial gift when the attempt at education failed. Despite this and the ongoing antisemitic vitriol that followed Irving's tweet from his fans and followers, he still refused to apologize.

This wasn't the first time Irving promoted 'Black Hebrew Israelite' antisemitic rhetoric, tweeting in March 2021: "You better stop playing with History. You better stop lying to your people Europe and America. You better stop feeding BS to the innocent children of God. The Original people are returning, and this time God will intervene at every corner of the Earth."

On Thursday November 3rd, the Brooklyn Nets announced that Kyrie Irving would be suspended without pay indefinitely, for a minimum of five games, and until meeting certain requirements. Separately, NBA Commissioner David Silver released a statement demanding an apology from Irving and announced the two will be having a meeting the following week.

FINALLY, after receiving an indefinite suspension without pay, criticism from advocacy groups nationwide, two botched press conferences, and a week of public outcry, Irving issued an apology. However, many critics noted the inauthenticity of the apology, specifically where Irving still managed to spread more 'Black Hebrew Israelite' antisemitic rhetoric by addressing G-d as "YHWH."

Kanye West 2022 Antisemite of the Year
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-9/kanye-west-2022-antisemite-of-the-year

Nearly ten thousand people voted and crowned Kanye West the 2022 "Antisemite of the Year" for his recent and ongoing bigoted remarks about the Jewish people!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbvP7yrrgCU

StopAntisemitism's Executive Director Liora Rez told TMZ "Kanye uses his celebrity platform to push dangerous antisemitic tropes about Jews and power and he refuses to stop. His continuous onslaught of bigoted statements has resulted in horrific antisemitic acts perpetrated by white supremacists, Black Hebrew Israelites, and other fringe groups looking to cause Jews harm. Jew hatred is already out of control in the United States and the last thing we need is a celebrity like Kanye to add fuel to that fire."

Kanye was voted worst of the worst after dominating the headlines since the beginning of October when he received "Antisemite of the Week" honors. While it has since come out that Kanye has had a longtime obsession with Hitler and the Nazis, his current tirade began on social media when he was kicked off Instagram for posting antisemitic tropes about Jewish power and control. Kanye then took to Twitter where he threatened "I'm going death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE" and was consequently locked out of that account as well.



After VICE News aired unseen footage from a FOX News interview with Tucker Carlson showing antisemitic remarks made by Kanye, he doubled down on those comments in interviews with Drink Champs, Chris Cuomo, Piers Morgan, and Lex Fridman. It was only then that Balenciaga, Vogue, CAA, and Adidas all cut ties with the disgraced rapper and fashion designer.

In mid-November, Kanye announced his 2024 presidential run with alt-right provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos as his campaign manager and took white nationalist and Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes to dinner at Mar-a-Lago with former President Trump.

A week later, Kanye again made headlines after appearing on conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' podcast where he stated "They (Nazis) did good things too. We got to stop dissing the Nazis all the time" and "I like Hitler." After tweeting a swastika inside of a Jewish star, he was kicked off Twitter yet again. Finally, Kanye appeared on Gavin Mcinnes' Proud Boys podcast where he reiterated old antisemitic tropes alleging that "Jewish people control the majority of the media, along with banks, along with real estate, along with malls" and stated, "Jewish people, forgive Hitler."

Kanye's impact has exponential reach – he has double the number of social media followers than there are Jews in the world. By purposefully using his vast platform to spread antisemitism, Kanye's recklessness has caused irreversible damage.

Hassan Chokr - Heading to Trial
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-9/hassan-chokr-heading-to-trial

Last month, as parents were dropping their children off at daycare at Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, antisemite Hassan Chokr sat in his work van filming the families while screaming antisemitic remarks out of his window that included "F*ck the Jews" and "F*ck Israel."

A temple security guard later testified that he felt threatened when he asked Chokr to leave that day and said he heard Chokr say "you are all going to die."

After Chokr left Temple Beth El he drove to a weapons retailer and attempted to purchase a shotgun, a rifle, and a semi automatic pistol while falsely claiming he had not been previously convicted of a felony. Thankfully, he was turned away by the store owners.

The next day, Chokr was arrested and charged with two felony counts of ethnic intimidation after his home was searched and his social media posts showing intent to purchase a firearm were shared with the authorities. Chokr was also charged with a federal complaint of lying on a federal firearms form when he sought to buy the weapons mentioned above and it was discovered that Chokr was out on bond on an unrelated charge of resisting arrest in a neighboring county.

"Antisemitic and racist threats or ethnic intimidation of any kind will not be tolerated in our community, and every such incident will be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law," Karen McDonald, the Michigan Prosecutor overseeing Chokr's case, said in a statement.

During his initial arraignment on December 6th, Chokr was heard on video calling Judge Nelson-Klein "Jewish b*tch, Zionist b*tch" and then proceeded to stick up his middle finger

.https://twitter.com/StopAntisemites/status/1599889950299897857?s=20

In a separate emergency bond hearing a few days later, Chokr appeared through a video feed before Judge Thomas on several assault charges stemming from 2020, as well as resisting a Dearborn police officer. Chokr was on mute when he pulled down his pants and mooned the Judge and courtroom. Judge Thomas cut the feed and revoked his bail in the Wayne County case.

The right to speak freely is not absolute; words that carry what is defined as "true threats," such as Chokr's, are not protected by the law.

Hassan Chokr is currently sitting in a Michigan prison cell on a $1 million bond, facing a ten-year sentence for his vile, antisemitic, verbal attacks on the Jewish community in Michigan. His trial date has not yet been set.

Lara Sheehi is an Associate Professor of Psychology at George Washington University (GW) in Washington D.C. who teaches a mandatory diversity course for the psychology program. Sheehi is a grotesque antisemite that has been recently named in a Department of Education Title VI Complaint alleging antisemitism by the legal arm of StandWithUs. Sheehi, who is Lebanese, is married to fellow antisemite Stephen Sheehi, who is also a problematic Professor at the College of William and Mary.

On the first day of classes last fall, Sheehi asked students to share their names and identities. She went around the room "affirming" each student's introduction, until one student said she was born in Israel. "It's not your fault you were born in Israel," she replied, which stunned the class according to eyewitnesses.

Her outlandish and discriminatory remark set the tone for a contentious semester; Sheehi consistently harassed her Jewish students and then retaliated against them when they raised concerns with GW administration.

According to a Title VI complaint filed earlier this week, Sheehi accused the students of racism, encouraged other classmates to demean and exclude them for their Jewish identity, and took disciplinary measures against them after they confronted her. Not surprisingly, GW administrators - specifically the Department Chair and a GW Dean - did nothing, essentially condoning her discriminatory behavior against Jewish students.

In our recent report 'Antisemitism on U.S. College & University Campuses', GW was rated a 'D' with many Jewish students stating GW administrators do not take their safety seriously and often do not feel comfortable sharing their Jewish identity with others due to the climate on campus. GW also scored poorly due to antisemitic Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) resolutions passed and the University's failure to include Jews in school-wide Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives.

During the one-semester course, Sheehi subjected Jewish students to antisemitic coursework and lectures, at times suggesting their failure to acquiesce would threaten their future as clinical psychologists. In September, she invited a radical speaker to campus who has falsely claimed that Israel tests its missile systems on Palestinian children.

The event occurred between the Jewish High Holy Days of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. The speaker, Dr. Nadera Shalhoub-Kevorkian, used the occasion to denounce "white Israeli racism," accuse Israel of using global relief work "to camouflage" its "oppressive power," and call for violence against Jewish people. The visiting professor went on to praise a Palestinian teenager who attempted to stab two Israelis to death in 2015.

Jewish students told Sheehi they felt targeted by the talk, questioning why they had been subjected to "a two-hour diatribe against one group—namely, Jews." Sheehi continued to deny and gaslight the students, claiming they made "damaging Islamophobic anti-Palestinian" comments about the guest speaker. Behind closed doors, Sheehi slandered the students to other faculty members, claiming they were racists.

Lara Sheehi also spreads her vile bigotry on social media, tweeting antisemitic statements such as "Destroy Zionism and commit to land back, then we'll take you seriously you f*cking genocidal f*cks. F*ck you," in response to an IDF tweet about Israel sending Lebanon aid after a massive chemical explosion in 2020.



In November, the brave Jewish students who came forward at GW were told faculty had voted to discipline them but were not made aware of their specific offenses. Instead, they were asked to describe what they believed they had done wrong, or else receive a "permanent negative mark" on their academic records.

Sheehi, on the other hand, continues to teach and promote her brand of "liberation psychoanalysis" vilifying the Jewish people and nation.

Dalton Clodfelter - Pushing Kanye on Campus
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/dalton-clodfelter-pushing-kanye-on-campus

Dalton Clodfelter is a neo-Nazi, antisemitic, bigot currently residing in Vero Beach, Florida. Clodfelter comes from a family that supports his antisemitism and he recently married into another family that also shares his views. Clodfelter's parents, Bryan & Kimberly Clodfelter, continue to work within the Asheboro City School district and appear to be outspoken supporters of their son's Neo-Nazi propaganda, never denouncing their son's supremacist agenda or rhetoric. His father-in-law, Sergeant Pedro Vazquez, is a United States Army Recruiter operating out of Duma, Texas and is an open and avid supporter of his racist son-in-law and daughter. In 2019, Clodfelter also enlisted in the United States Army.

Clodfelter is an active white nationalist livestreamer where he can be heard denying the extent of the Holocaust. In a May 2022 livestream, Clodfelter asked "Can we talk about the Holocaust, please? Can we just have a discussion about it and why maybe some of the numbers are inflated? Like just question it."



In another livestream, Clodfelter outrageously declared that he doesn't have "any hate in [his] heart for Nazis" and proclaims that burning "sexually degenerate" books is an example of something "positive that the Nazis brought to the table in Germany in the 30s and 40s."

Clodfelter has partnered with several white nationalists including Nick Fuentes and Stew Peters. In February 2022, Clodfelter appeared as a special guest speaker at Fuentes' 'America First' conference; Fuentes was featured as an 'Antisemite of the Week' by StopAntisemitism in 2019. Fuentes is also known for helping antisemite Kanye West in his 2024 presidential bid; West was named the 2022 'Antisemite of the Year.' Radical right-wing broadcaster Stew Peters gave fascist Dalton Clodfelter a nightly program on his network in 2022, a platform which Clodfelter uses to openly promote white nationalism. Clodfelter operates various antisemitic, bigoted social media accounts where a recent post shows him participating in blackface and slinging homophobic and racial slurs.



On January 18th, Dalton Clodfelter organized an openly antisemitic event at Florida Atlantic University. With the help of fellow white nationalist Tyler Russell, the two were canvassing the University by pushing Kanye West's latest antisemitic agenda. Video footage shows Clodfelter referring to West's words & actions as 'admirable' and he is seen laughing and ridiculing a Jewish student to the point of tears. This is a common theme among his college/university visits.



Several brave FAU students quickly gathered & organized a counter-protest to Clodfelter, Russell, and the other accomplices who were promptly removed from campus. Clodfelter has pledged to return to other universities with the same antisemitic message in the coming weeks. He has titled this mission 'College Campus Invasions' with the hashtag #YeIsRight and claims to be spreading a me

Francesca Albanese - A Stain on the United Nations
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/francesca-albanese

Francesca Albanese is an Italian native, international lawyer, academic scholar, and life-long antisemite. In 2022, Albanese was appointed as the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Palestine. In addition, Albanese is an Affiliate Scholar at the Institute for the Study of International Migration at Georgetown University and a Senior Advisor on Migration & Forced Displacement at the NGO Arab Renaissance for Democracy & Development.

Although her resume is stately, Albanese's accolades are followed by a decade of outrageous antisemitic rhetoric against the Jewish people and the State of Israel.

In October of 2022, Albanese made a special request within her first report to the UN that members should advance 'a plan to end the Israeli settler-colonial occupation and apartheid regime.' Her outrageous remarks violate the working definition of antisemitism by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA): 'denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination by claiming the existence of the State of Israel is a racist endeavor.'

Albanese has also grotesquely compared the history of the Holocaust to the Nakba. In her one sided analysis, she advocates for the 'destruction' of the world's only Jewish state. She continued her false allegations by comparing Israel to Nazi Germany. Her comments regarding the security concerns Israel faces, she claimed, were fueled by 'greediness' and 'paranoia.' Under IHRA, Albanese is in direct conflict with 'drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.'

Upon Albanese's appointment as Special Rapporteur, controversy ensued due to her past antisemitic remarks regarding the Holocaust and the 'Jewish lobby.' These antisemitic statements of Jewish power and control ignited a bipartisan upheaval in Congress.



This past week, eleven Democratic and Republican Congress members called for Albanese's firing, citing her 'outrageous' antisemitism and her 'obsessive focus on the world's only Jewish state.' The bi-partisan members were quick to make the correlation between Albanese's remarks and IHRA recognition that 'making mendacious allegations about the mythical power of Jews controlling the media, economy, government, or other societal institutions' is slanderous and antisemitic.

Instead of taking responsibility for her Jew-hating rhetoric, Albanese refused to apologize for any of her remarks but instead claims her statements regarding the US being 'subjugated by Jews' were not antisemitic. Albanese doubled down on anyone who challenged her repetition of age-old antisemitic tropes or inciting violence.

Nathan Thrall - The Higher Ed Hypocrite
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/nathan-thrall-the-higher-ed-hypocrite

Nathan Thrall is a Jerusalem-based author and current visiting faculty member at Bard College, poisoning the minds of the upstate New York, liberal arts college with his lies of Israeli apartheid and promotion of the antisemitic Boycott Divest & Sanctions (BDS) movement.

Thrall's new course - 'Apartheid in Israel Palestine' - appears to center around bashing the world's sole Jewish nation while ignoring the Jewish people's right to self-determination, struggles with Palestinian terror, and the refusal to accept the right of Israel to exist. Claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor is deemed antisemitic by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism.



Before taking the teaching semester at Bard, Thrall spent a decade as the Director of the Arab-Israel Project at the International Crisis Group (ICG) covering Israeli and Palestinian affairs. When looking into the funding of ICG, we discover that the NGO raised approximately one million dollars from the Rockefeller Brothers Foundations, a prolific and outspoken funder of the BDS movement across the United States, specifically on college campuses.

BDS is a Palestinian-led movement promoting boycotts, divestments, and economic sanctions against the State of Israel, often calling for its destruction. Thrall has openly expressed his support for the BDS movement and claims that the sole purpose of pro-Israel groups is to stifle pro-Palestinian speech; in reality, BDS has not sought any reconciliation with the Jewish state, but rather refuses to support negotiations or talks of a two-state solution. Instead of pushing for peace, BDS often campaigns to raise tensions in communities - particularly on college campuses - that result in dangerous harassment of Jews and Israel supporters.

In addition to the Rockefeller Foundation, more than five million dollars came from the Open Society Foundation, which funds dozens of pro-BDS organizations.

On top of these foundations, ICG received four million dollars from the Qatari government in 2018 alone; Qatar is one of the largest state funders of Hamas. In 2008, the former ICG president Robert Malley was fired from Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign after it was made known that he met with the Hamas terror organization. We can all agree it's not the best look for an educator to be funded & backed by antisemitic and pro-terror organizations.

Nathan Thrall's thought process is deeply clouded by an extremist mindset. His influence from the organizations that supported and funded him casts a dark shadow in many of his reviews, journals, and literature. In one of his more famous works, "A Day in the Life of Abed Salama," Thrall paints a picture for the reader through the lens of radical Palestinians, blaming Zionism for its colonialist mindset in 1948. However, Zionism and the longing for Jews to have their homeland reestablished predated 1948. Thrall also fails to mention that any attempt towards peace by the Israelis has been fiercely rejected with the infamous phrase at the Arab League, 'no peace, no negotiations, and no recognition of Israel.'

We know how quickly antisemitic speech turns into violent expressions and interactions. This is why it is imperative that the courses taught on college and university campuses should be unbiased and truthful. We often find that false claims about Israel translates into violent actions against Jewish students. In 2021, Bard student, Ben Mulick, a former 'Antisemite of the Week' https://streaklinks.com/BYW3Q11Y2AxedLePTAP0rhkM/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stopantisemitism.org%2Fantisemite-of-the-week-4%2Fantisemite-of-the-week-ben-mulick-the-bigot-at-bard , threatened gun violence against the Jewish students on campus, ultimately leading to his exiting from the College after outrage ensued.

Brandon Clint Russell - The Holocaust Denying Domestic Terrorist
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/brandon-clint-russell-the-holocaust-denying-domestic-terrorist

Brandon Clint Russell is a three-time convicted felon, violent, neo-Nazi domestic terrorist who was arrested once again this week after being caught planning to destroy an electric grid in Baltimore, Maryland. Russell is a former student at the University of South Florida where he studied nuclear physics; at the time of his first arrest, he was serving in the Florida Army National Guard.

In 2015, at just eighteen-years-old, Russell first appeared on the influential fascist website "Iron March." The forum, which was shut down in 2017, was a popular webpage for white nationalists who were able to freely express their terrorizing plans to wage war against minorities, specifically the Jewish people. Russell used Iron March to advertise his neo-Nazi regime which he was creating after an intensive three years of research: the dangerous Atomwaffen Division (AWD). He was specifically seeking radical individuals familiar with military training and received dozens of interested recruits.

Atomwaffen or 'nuclear weapons' in German, often goes by the alias name of the Nationalist Socialist Order (NSO). It is a terrorist, neo-Nazi organization that formed under Russell's vision of accelerationism. This mindset believes modern-day civilization cannot be redeemed and therefore must be destroyed so that a 'whites-only utopia can take its place.' The group obsesses over the notion of jihadi and other terrorist actions to receive this lifestyle.

AWD is listed as a hate group and terrorist group by multiple international governments, including the US, the UK, and Canada. Under Russell's leadership, members of the AWD were responsible for several murders, planned terrorist attacks, antisemitic hate crimes, and other criminal actions. The inspiration for these attacks originates from Russell's inspirational heroes - neo-Nazis William Pierce, James Mason, and Joseph Tommasi. When it came to recruitment, Russell specifically sought young college men with slogans such as: 'Join Your Local Nazis' and 'The Nazis are Coming.' Russell was even able to recruit several veterans and current members of the U.S. Armed Forces to help train in the use of firearms and military tactics. Upon recruitment, members were encouraged to read Hitler's Mein Kampf. 

AWD members were required to attend 'Hate Camps' where they produce propaganda to entice new members to join. In these propaganda videos members are seen yelling, 'gas the Kikes, race war now' while shooting weapons into the air. AWD advocates for attacks against Jewish communities because they believed the 'kike plans to destroy the Aryan race.'

Joe Rogan - The Podcaster Pushing Jewish Power
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/joe-rogan-the-podcaster-pushing-jewish-power

Joe Rogan is the host behind The Joe Rogan Experience, a highly controversial podcast tainted with bigotry and racism, diving headfirst into spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories to his audience of nearly 13 million people.

In 2022, Spotify announced they were removing 113 episodes over incidents of racism and incentive language after footage surfaced showing Rogan using racial slurs.

Rogan has compared Covid-19 vaccines to "Nazi experiments" and vaccine requirements to the "Holocaust."  Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev called out Rogan for his antisemitism, stating - "You are absolutely not promoting freedom, but promoting hate, antisemitism, and possibly even more violence and constant hate."

Throughout the years, Rogan has also hosted a sea of problematic guests on his show including Jordan Peterson, who joined Rogan on a podcast to discuss an array of issues and compared 'Nazism' to various contentious LGBTQ topics. Rogan has also interviewed Alex Jones who has created an open platform for antisemites to spew hatred and violence against the Jewish people, including Holocaust denier and past 'Antisemite of the Week' Nick Fuentes and StopAntisemitism's '2022 Antisemite of the Year' Kanye West.

During Kanye West's antisemitic tirades in 2022, Rogan fiercely defended West after his antisemitic tirade and full-fledged attack on the Jewish people. After West threatened to go "Death Con 3" against the Jewish people and said Hitler & the Nazis "did good things" Rogan pushed back saying, "Ye is not a bad person...he's gifted."

A few weeks ago, Rogan hosted Breaking Points co-host Krystal Ball on his podcast discussing Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's removal from the Foreign Affairs Committee over repetitive antisemitic remarks. Omar has spent much of her time in office criticizing Israel by reinforcing antisemitic tropes in a series of tweets.

In one tweet, Omar stated: "Israel has hypnotized the world," violating the IHRA (International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance) working definition of antisemitism that states "making mendacious, dehumanizing, demonizing, or stereotypical allegations toward Jews or the power of Jews as a collective" is indeed antisemitic.

Omar invoked a clear antisemitic stereotype of Jewish power and control when discussing the United States' financial aid and allyship with the State of Israel as being "all about the Benjamins."



Rogan mocked the situation saying - "the idea that Jewish people are not into money is ridiculous. That's like saying Italians aren't into pizza. It's f*cking stupid." Rogan continued to defend Rep. Omar throughout the conversation stating she should not have apologized for her use of centuries-old antisemitic tropes.

One of the most common stereotypes about Jews is that they are greedy and will do anything for wealth. This trope has been used to fabricate that Jewish people control the world's financial systems, often leading to violence against Jews. The Nazis pushed the notion of Jewish greed in their antisemitic campaigns, producing propaganda films pushing Jewish wealth and greed that ultimately ended with the murder of six million Jews. Italians have never been the victims of genocide based on their "love of pizza." To compare the two is not only ludicrous, but hateful.

If Rogan's comments weren't damaging enough, Ball found a way to make it worse by adding - "There is a very obvious reason why for my entire life there's been a unipartite consensus around our policy vis-à-vis the Israeli government and a total inability and unwillingness to criticize the Israeli government. It has everything to do with organization and, yes, money." Rogan stayed silent and didn't push back.

Mark Ruffalo - The Sorry, Not Sorry Jew Hater
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/gm8v5421ujq7q81ajrkj5yjzbmjyxq

Mark Ruffalo is an American actor who spends his free time spewing antisemitic rhetoric and dangerous anti-Israel propaganda to his nearly 30 million social media followers. Ruffalo regularly aligns himself with antisemitic positions and fans the flames of Jew-hatred masked as pro-Palestinian activism.

In 2018, Ruffalo tweeted his outrage over CNN's firing of antisemite Marc Lamont Hill. Hill was caught inciting violence against Israel and the Jewish people by reciting rhetoric that called for the dissolution of the Jewish people and the only Jewish nation. Ruffalo stated Hill was advocating for Palestinian rights, when in reality Hill openly called for the elimination of Israel, encouraged Palestinians in their "resistance," and was later linked to notorious antisemite Louis Farrakhan.



In 2019, Ruffalo signed a letter of support for the UK's Labour Party leader, Jeremy Corbyn. Despite Corbyn being a staunch antisemite, Ruffalo described him as a "beacon of hope against racism." The Labour Party, particularly under Corbyn, was discovered to harbor deeply anti-Jewish bias, which led to Corbyn's dismissal.

In 2020, Ruffalo grew agitated and whined about being labeled antisemitic for falsely accusing the State of Israel of being an apartheid nation during his time on the Mehdi Hasan Show. Mehdi Hasan, another notorious antisemite, is an avid Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) supporter who within one week of launching his show on MSNBC invited guests to spew antisemitic & anti-Israel propaganda.

In 2021, Ruffalo boasted he was "proud" to add his name to support the ending of genocide at the hands of Israel. Unfortunately, the organizations he aligned himself with to "protect Palestinians" called for the destruction of Israel and America. Instead of supporting human rights groups, Ruffalo was openly supporting terrorist organizations whose mission is to destroy the world's only Jewish nation.

Mark Ruffalo's outrageous comparison of Israel to genocide and apartheid was met with harsh criticism around the world, leading Ruffalo to issue an apology. In a tweet, Ruffalo says he regrets using the term "genocide." He said his description was inaccurate, inflammatory, and disrespectful and does not justify antisemitism.



Ruffalo's apology was unfortunately short-lived; just five days after expressing his regret for inciting antisemitism, Ruffalo resumed his dangerous anti-Israel rhetoric on Twitter.

In 2022, Mark Ruffalo tweeted his outrage over PayPal's decision to pull business from Gaza due to ongoing transactions that were tied directly to funding terror operations by Hamas and calling for the slaughtering of Jews. Ruffalo, not bothered by that mission, asked his followers to sign a petition to overturn PayPal's decision. Thankfully, PayPal refused to cave to Ruffalo's outrageous demands.

Later in 2022, Ruffalo tweeted against the United Nations adopting the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's (IHRA) definition of antisemitism. He echoed the false claim that defining antisemitism was instrumentalized to "discourage free speech." Despite Ruffalo's call to dismiss the IHRA's definition of antisemitism, the definition has been endorsed/adopted by 40 countries, 300+ non-federal governments, thousands of Jewish academics, hundreds of universities, the European Union's Coordinator for Combating Antisemitism, as well as the former UN Special Rapporteur for Freedom of Religion.

On February 15, 2023, Ruffalo tweeted one of his most outlandish and defamatory tweets to date, stating: "between their spyware, election tampering, disinformation campaigns, state-sanctioned killing of journalists, apartheid, & their new ultra-right wing nationalist party, there are power centers in Israel that are antidemocratic & dangerous to world peace." This antisemitic ideology that Jews control the media, Hollywood, banks, and world peace are tropes which have been used to persecute the Jewish people throughout the course of history.

The Jewish media might like it to be CALLED Jew Hatred.

But it's not Jew Hatred.

It's simple Gentile Self-Defense.

After 5783 years of watching the Psychopathy, Deceit, and Dysfunction that the Jews bring -

returning the chemical elements in their bodies to Other Purposes - like feeding their bodies to farm animals - is simple Gentile Self-Defense.

Times Up - Pencils Down.  The Jews have simply shown their True Nature too many times to arrive at any other conclusion.

Bella Hadid - Like Father, Like Daughter
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/bella-hadid-like-father-like-daughter

Bella Hadid is an American model, influencer, and social media poster child for online Jew hatred; she is also the daughter of disgraced Jordanian real estate mogul and former "Antisemite of the Week" Mohamed Hadid. http://theinfounderground.com/smf/index.php?topic=29068.msg96096#msg96096  Like her father, Bella Hadid obsessively spreads false and dangerous disinformation about the Jewish people and nation to her nearly 66 million followers on social media.

In December 2017, Bella joined a protest in London that challenged then-President Donald Trump's decision to move the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Many protesters at the event were caught chanting in Arabic: "Khaybar, Khaybar, oh Jews, the army of Muhammed is returning," a slogan referring to the prophet Muhammed's bloody ruling against Jewish tribes. "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" (a Hamas rallying cry for the elimination of the Jewish state) was also widely heard at the protest. Hadid later defended the protestors' chanting on Instagram, stating: "The treatment of the Palestinian people is unfair, one-sided, and should not be tolerated. I stand with Palestine."

Shortly after this protest, Bella began falsely labeling the Jewish state as "apartheid" and calling the Jews in Israel "a group of colonizers" who conduct ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians. She dismisses the fact that the Palestinian population has grown from 1.37 million in 1948 to 14 million today. If Israelis are partaking in the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, they are doing a lousy job.

In May 2021, during a violent season in the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, Bella Hadid attended a pro-Palestinian rally-turned-riot in New York City with Waseem Awawdeh, who is charged with assaulting an innocent Orthodox Jewish man at the protest. Awawdeh and many others brutally beat Joey Borgen so badly he was taken to the hospital in serious condition. During the attack, Borgen was called a "filthy Jew." Awawdeh said, "I'm going to f*cking kill you. Go back to Israel so Hamas can kill you." Awawdeh was apprehended and upon arrest stated, "I would do it again."

Bella Hadid never condemned Awawdeh's antisemitic actions but instead took to social media once again to proclaim, "The way my heart feels...To be around this many beautiful, smart, respectful, loving, kind, and generous Palestinians all in one place...it feels whole! We are a rare breed!" StopAntisemitism was quickly able to link Awawdeh to Hadid with photographic evidence and she promptly deleted her photos and traces of him from her feed. 

Bella Hadid's now deleted Instagram post connecting her to violent antisemite Waseem Awawdeh at a May 2021 protest in NYC.

In July 2022, Hadid went on a tirade of sharing false information across social media claiming: "Israel was occupying Palestinian Land for 4000 years" and "Jesus was Palestinian." In a separate Instagram post by Bella and her sister Gigi Hadid, they shared: "One cannot advocate for racial equality, LGBT and women's rights, condemn corrupt and abusive regimes and other injustices yet choose to ignore the Palestinian oppression." Israel is the only country in the Middle East where women's rights are championed & LGBTQ+ rights are celebrated. Tel Aviv hosts one of the largest Pride parades in the world; whereas homosexuality is a death sentence under the Palestinian Authority (PLO).

This is not the only time Bella has spread misinformation to her millions of followers; Hadid posted an image claiming newly elected Prime Minister of Israel Neftali Bennett said, "I've killed lots of Arabs in my life, and there's no problem with that." and that the "former minister of justice for Israel was encouraging genocide against the Palestinians, specifically pregnant mothers." Her ongoing antisemitic lies caused a petition of nearly 70,000 signatures to circulate calling for brands to drop Bella Hadid. 

Shockingly, despite Bella Hadid's antisemitic behavior being well known in the fashion and makeup world, this past week beauty brand Charlotte Tilbury announced Hadid would be the new face of the company, angering thousands and thousands of the brand's loyal fans.

James Ray - The Radical's Radical
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/james-ray-the-radicals-radical

James Ray is a radical Jew-hater & supporter of the antisemitic Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. A graduate of Purdue University's class of 2020, and more recently of Murray State University, James Ray has a growing audience on multiple social media platforms where he spews antisemitic and dangerous libel against the Jewish people and the nation of Israel. James has an unhealthy obsession with wishing violence upon the Jewish community and those who identify as Zionists (which accounts for more than 90% of Jews globally). Unfortunately, he has fallen for the fallacy of equating Israel to an apartheid and imperialist empire; this mindset has encouraged James to become a terrorist sympathizer and supporter.

The BDS movement is linked to multiple terrorist organizations and supporters call for the elimination of the world's sole Jewish nation. James Ray is one of those supporters:

- During the 2021 Olympics, James Ray applauded the athletes who refused to compete against Israel. He claimed it was beautiful and should be celebrated.

- James Ray promotes the dismantling of the State of Israel, expressing multiple times throughout his Twitter feed the idea of "free Palestine from the river to the sea."

- James Ray calls for the destruction of the state by physical means.

James Ray has a troubling and violent mindset when it comes to the Jewish community. He often advocates or stands in solidarity with those who wish to harm or even kill Jews & Zionists:

- On November 26, 2021, James Ray expressed his support for Yasmeen Mashayekh - a former 'Antisemite of the Week' - who was removed from student government at the University of Southern California after she tweeted her desire to "kill every motherf—king Zionist."

- On December 26, 2021, two Jewish college students were violently assaulted for wearing Israeli Defense Force (IDF) apparel and called "dirty Jews." Ray mocked the incident saying, "the IDF can't protect you in Brooklyn ❤)."

- On February 27th, U.S. citizen and Connecticut born Elan Ganeles was murdered by a Palestinian terrorist. James Ray's response was horrifying, "He made a conscious choice to join a genocidal occupation force as it continues a campaign of mass ethnic cleansing and set himself up in the West Bank on the front lines of the colonial endeavor he sought to uphold. He deserved to die, and his memory will be a stain on the land."



James Ray also embraces terror organizations:

- In 2021 James pledged his support for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

- Also in 2021 James shared he was reading the PFLP's 1969 book, Strategy for the Liberation of Palestine; the book claims that in order to liberate Palestine, a violent armed struggle must take place between Israelis and Palestinians.

David Croteau - Arizona's Elected Jew Hater
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/david-croteau-arizona-antisemite

Tucson, Arizona-based David Croteau is an outspoken Holocaust denier, a longstanding conspiracy monger, and a recently appointed Pima County government official who pushes antisemitic propaganda. When confronted about his vile beliefs, Croteau doubles down on his Jew-hatred and anti-Zionism.



David Croteau, also known as Green Party Dave, is also a former member of the far-right group the Oath Keepers. It is rumored Croteau's ardent antisemitism was so grotesque that the Oath Keepers decided to part ways with him in 2017. Before being removed from the Oath Keepers, Croteau was arrested, charged, and found guilty of assault, trespassing, and disorderly contact for weeks of aggressive stalking and unhinged rants against an Army recruitment office.

In a 2014 Facebook post, Croteau insinuated Americans have been misled about the truth about Adolf Hitler, claiming the stories did not "add up" and shares a link to a YouTube video titled, "Hitler: The Greatest Story Never Told." He also denies the Nazi regime committed mass genocide against the Jewish people. 



Croteau is an avid 9/11 conspiracy theorist, claiming Israel is behind the horrific terrorist attacks. Croteau shares dozens of antisemitic memes blaming one of the worst terrorist attacks on American soil on Zionists and Israel.

In 2017, Croteau wrote in a long-winded post claiming the time of American freedom is coming to an end at the hands of the Jewish cabal. He grotesquely stated the "world outnumbers the Jews, yet they are controlled by the Jews." That same year he uploaded a meme saying Israel was the #1 enemy of America and "Zionists" are holding the government "hostage" and "controlling everyone with the financial system."

In 2019, Croteau once again claimed Jewish power, uploading an article claiming Israel's lobby has control of American politicians.

During the global COVID pandemic, Croteau blamed COVID on the Jewish people in an attempt to create a New World Order. He made ludicrous statements comparing the Holocaust to the pandemic and claimed the Zionists were the ones behind COVID.



In March 2023, in a split-vote decision, the Pima County Board of Supervisors approved to appoint this Holocaust denier as a precinct committeeman. David Croteau failed to win several elections as a Green Party candidate, before being dismissed from the party due to his antisemitic views. At the time of the vote, Croteau was running as a Libertarian. In November 2022, he was declined the position, but after little debate this month, the committee moved forward with appointing Croteau to the vacant committee seat.

Huwaida Arraf - Terror Cheerleader
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/6wnjok1x8aom8getve6k45iw11gwdz

Huwaida Arraf is a failed Congressional candidate out of Michigan and a rabid antisemite that equates the Jewish nation with Nazi Germany, glorifies and legally defends convicted terrorists, and advocates for violence against Israel. Arraf is also a big supporter of the antisemitic Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement and has been listed as an Advisory Board Member for the pro-BDS group U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights (USCPR) since 2010.

Arraf co-founded the International Solidarity Movement (ISM)  in 2001, which has been linked to terror groups like Hamas, PIJ, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), all of which are designated as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTO) by the U.S. State Department. 

Arraf is an outspoken supporter of violence when it comes to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict:

- In January 2002, during the second intifada, Arraf authored an article on Palestinian resistance and intifada. In the article, she expresses "the Palestinian resistance must take on a variety of characteristics — both nonviolent and violent. But most importantly it must develop a strategy involving both aspects."

- In the same article, Arraf writes, "we accept that Palestinians have a right to resist with arms" and that if prospective Hamas suicide bombers would instead "offer themselves as martyrs by standing on a settler road and blocking it from traffic" that would be "no less of a jihad...no less noble than carrying out a suicide operation" and they would also "be considered shaheed [martyr] Allah."



Arraf often equates the world's sole Jewish state to that of Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany, something deemed antisemitic under the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism:

- In 2018, Arraf tweeted, "Shame on those who have allowed Israel to turn Gaza into a concentration camp."

- In 2018, Arraf equated the Palestinian Resistance to the Holocaust: "Calling for the freedom of the Palestinian people, of all people, on the walls of the Warsaw ghetto should be applauded, not condemned!"

Arraf also believes the state of Israel has no right to exist, tweeting at then Secretary of State John Kerry, stating "Israel does not have the right to a Jewish state." Such expressions of erasure are also deemed antisemitic by IHRA.



Arraf, an attorney, boasts convicted terrorists, such as Rasmea Odeh, as clients. In 2016, the U.S. Palestinian Community Network (USPCN) wrote a tweet that Arraf was a "new member of Rasmea Odeh's defense team" with Arraf expressing her glee, stating it was a privilege to defend Odeh. In 1969, Odeh orchestrated a bombing that killed two Jewish college students shopping in a Jerusalem supermarket. Odeh also attempted to bomb the British consulate.

In 2020, Arraf tweeted her admiration for Leila Khaled, a Palestinian freedom fighter. Arraf included a petition that called Khaled "a powerful, inspiring figure, more than just a freedom fighter, a national icon. Khaled helped hijack two airplanes and claims the second intifada was unsuccessful because not enough Jews were murdered. Khaled compares Zionists to Nazis and advocates for the use of children in military & terror zones.

Despite Huwaida Arraf's hateful background, earlier this month she was shockingly invited to join a diversity panel at Bloomfield Hills High School, a suburb in Michigan boasting a large Jewish population. Arraf presented four times, to grades 9-12th, and was supposed to discuss how to build empathy within the community; instead, in each presentation, she deviated from the prompts and went on a rampage against Israel and the Jewish people. Faculty members never intervened, allowing her to continue her hate campaign, leaving several Jewish students in tears. [Did they feel guilt for what Israhell and jews are doing?]  The school was forced to apologize but caused further outrage after the principal's message failed to include Jews or Israel. The superintendent was forced to step in and issue a second apology.

Susan Abulhawa - The Wretched Writer
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/susan-abulhawa

Susan Abulhawa is an American author, activist, and staunch antisemite pushing the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. Abulhawa spreads vile conspiracy theories about Jews harvesting Palestinian organs and has horrifically referred to an American Israeli terror victim as "human garbage".

Susan Abulhawa calls for the violent eradication of Israel, spreads antisemitic tropes and anti-Zionist libel against the Jews, and even threatens world leaders with slanderous lies and comparisons.

On February 28, in light of the murder of Elan Ganeles, a dual US Israeli citizen by a Palestinian terrorist, Abulhawa called him a "privileged white man" who "violently colonized another people" through "robbing & oppressing." She asked why Jews in New York would be upset over this "human garbage."



In February, Abulhawa was invited to speak at Adelaide Writers' Week in Australia. Abulhawa was under much scrutiny for her 2022 comparisons of Jewish Ukrainian President Zelenskyy as a "Nazi-promoting Zionist" and claimed he was trying to plunge the world into WWIII. This led to three Ukrainian authors withdrawing from the event.



Abulhawa also parades the false conspiracy trope that Israelis want to conquer Palestinians and "take over the world." She has even gone as far as to drop "false flag" allegations against Israel and claims Jews bomb their synagogues in order to blame Palestinians and "ethnically cleanse" them from the area.

In Abulhawa's worldview, there is no room for Jews and Palestinians to exist in the land together in peace. Multiple times she refers to Israelis as "Nazis" and "demons" and wants Israel to be "destroyed and dismantled".



In 2017, Abulhawa discovered she was 6% Jewish and joked if she was qualified for Holocaust restitution. Yet, she remains obsessed with denying the horrors of the Holocaust and equates Israel's treatment of Palestinians to genocide, tweeting "Zionism is terrorism is Nazism is antisemitism."



This month, Susan Abulhawa dialed up her vileness. Her Twitter account was permanently banned after she stated "the world will be a better place when Israel is wiped off the map...the end of that anachronistic colonial experiment is near." Twitter stated her account was banned for breaking the "hateful conduct" rule and she was banned from creating new accounts going forward.

Houria Bouteldja - Homophobic Jew Hater
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/houria-bouteldja

Houria Bouteldja is a French-Algerian political activist and writer who uses her position and platform to spread dangerous antisemitic libel against the Jewish people. An advocate for the antisemitic Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement, Bouteldja is best known for her work as a spokesperson for the Parti des Indigènes de la République (Party of the Indigenous of the Republic), a French political organization that advocates for the rights of immigrants and descendants of immigrants in France, particularly those of North African and African descent.

Bouteldja remains a highly controversial figure due to her antisemitic and homophobic statements as she often makes a habit of using tropes vilifying both in her writings and speeches, including referring to Jews as "the new priests of the dominant ideology" and claiming that Jews hold a privileged position in French society.

The majority of Houria Bouteldja's statements and writings have been criticized as antisemitic by various individuals and organizations. In her widely criticized book, "Whites, Jews, and Us: Towards a Politics of Revolutionary Love," Bouteldja referred to "panicked Jewish elites" as those who control the government and claimed that Jews hold a privileged position in French society. This assertion has been criticized as promoting antisemitic stereotypes. 

Moreover, in a 2017 speech, Bouteldja's statement that she "could not care less" about the murder of Jewish woman Sarah Halimi, who was killed by a Muslim neighbor in Paris because Halimi was "a colonizer," was widely condemned as inciting violence against the Jewish people.

Furthermore, Bouteldja has faced criticism for her use of antisemitic language in her criticism of Zionism and the state of Israel. In a 2013 interview, she referred to Zionism as a "criminal ideology" and claimed that it "shares the same DNA as Nazism."

Additionally, her use of the phrase "Jewish lobby" in her writings has been viewed as promoting antisemitic conspiracies and tropes that are harmful to Jews.

Additional examples of Houria Bouteldja's dangerous ideology against the Jewish people and other minorities include:

- "Zionists to the Gulag" (comprising 90%+ of Jews globally)

- "Killing an Israeli is killing two birds with one stone – eliminating the oppressor and the oppressed"

- "Mohamed Merah is me and I am him" (Merah is the terrorist who fired upon a Jewish school in 2012 Toulouse)

- "Homophobia is fierce resistance to Western imperialism."

- "An Arab man that is 'coming out' is an act of submission to white supremacy."



In 2020, Bouteldja was subject to legal action due to her ongoing harassment of April Benayoum, a French beauty queen who is also Jewish. Bouteldja used antisemitic language in reference to Benayoum, including the phrase "Hitler forgot to exterminate you, Miss Provence.

Despite Bouteldja's prejudiced sentiments, she remained a prominent figure in French politics and activism and has been invited to speak at events and conferences around the world.

Yale University's European Studies Council invited Houria Bouteldja to speak on their campus during Passover.

DAMN !

You'd think eventually the ADL hate group would recognize the Pro-Gentile-ism of the members of TIU.

Maybe we could print out 10 of our top threads and mail them to ADL headquarters in Brooklyn.

Carlton Williams
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/carlton-williams

Carlton E. Williams is an Assistant Professor at Cornell Law School and a lifelong Jew hater who supports antisemitic boycotts, spreads antisemitic rhetoric, and supports convicted terrorists.

In his free time, Williams spends countless hours on his social media platforms spreading antisemitic libel against the Jewish people and nation, leading efforts with the antisemitic Boycott, Divest, and Sanctions Movement (BDS) and the International Solidarity Movement (ISM). He has been obsessively critical of the Jewish nation, pushing antisemitic rhetoric under the guise of Black empowerment and solidarity. As part of "Israel Apartheid Week" (IAW) in April 2018, Williams participated as a panelist in a "Black Palestinian Solidarity" event hosted by Harvard Palestine Solidarity Committee. Williams falsely equates the struggles of Black Americans with Palestinians.

In January 2019, Williams called for a boycott against Puma for conducting business with the State of Israel. He shared a similar tweet when calling for the boycott of Sabra Hummus as it is an Israeli product.



Williams included on his resume as of October 2021 that he held the position of "Community Organizer/Trainer" at Palestine Legal and the International Solidarity Movement (ISM). ISM claims to be a non-violent front against the "occupation" yet been accused of supporting terrorism and has encouraged its foreign volunteers to act "as human shields in cities, towns, and refugee camps."

Williams has been invited to give speeches and presentations at events organized by radical agitators Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) at multiple chapters on university campuses. The majority of SJP chapters champion terrorists and terrorism.

Williams often dives headfirst into spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories of Jewish power and control. For example, during a 2016 SJP panel, Professor Williams stated: "This is sort of a rhetorical question. Does the Israeli lobby control the United States government or does the United States government control Israel as a proxy in the Middle East?" mimicking antisemitic rhetoric of Jewish power and control.



Williams also makes no secret of his support of Palestinian terrorists. For example:

- Williams tweeted "On Khader Adnan's Hunger Strike." Khader Adnan is a violent senior member of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terrorist organization.

- In 2018, Williams shared with his followers to write a letter to then jailed terrorist, Ahed Tamimi. Ahed Tamimi frequently uses violent force against Israeli soldiers. Her father, Bassem Tamimi, is known for using children to provoke conflicts with Israeli soldiers and was imprisoned in 2011 for encouraging minors to throw rocks at Israelis.

Daniel Segal - The Holocaust Appropriator
https://www.stopantisemitism.org/antisemite-of-the-week-10/antisemite-of-the-week-daniel-segal

Daniel Segal is a Professor of Psychology at Pitzer College in Pomona, CA, where he has a record of engaging in antisemitic and anti-Israel activity.

In November 2018, Segal spearheaded an effort to have Pitzer suspend its study abroad program with the University of Haifa in Israel. He was supported by former "Antisemite of the Week" Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (pictured below with Segal), but thankfully, his efforts failed.



Segal is known to partner with and support several problematic groups such as Open Hillel, an organization that's criticized for its antisemitic bias and bigotry. He also frequently tweets his support of the antisemitic Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement and is an advisory member of Anthropologists for the Boycott of Israeli Academic Institutions. For example, in May of 2021, Segal tweeted: "Self-respecting Jews are anti-Zionists, bc Zionism is settler colonialism, ethnic cleansing and apartheid--and racist. Self-respecting Jews aren't racist. They support Palestinian freedom. & #BDS." Segal atrociously considers fellow Jews who consider themselves Zionists as colonizers and perpetrators of genocide and apartheid.

Minimizing the atrocities of the Holocaust, Segal has grossly appropriated the slogan, "never again," nearly 50 times between January 2019 and June 2022, in a malicious attempt to draw a comparison between Israel and Nazi Germany. For example, on:

- June 24, 2021, Segal tweeted: "2/2 self-respecting Jews know 'never again' means never again to anyone. Hillel Intl is now a pro-Israeli apartheid and anti-Palestinian organization that deserves no institutional support on any college campus anywhere."

- September 15, 2021, Segal tweeted: "To all observing, may this be the Yom Kippur when we seek atonement for the sins done in our Jewish name by the Israeli apartheid state: it's denial of freedom to Palestinians. 'Never again' must mean to any human being or it too is wickedness. #YomKippur2021 #GmarChatimaTova."

- November 13, 2021, Segal tweeted: "As a Jew, I am obligated to support #BDS, because 'never again' means for any of us. Seeking security for a people by attaching it to a state, a militarized state, is evil: we know the consequences. #PalestinianFreedom."

- January 25, 2021, Segal tweeted: "How dishonest & evil a person are you willing to be? Never again means never again for any human being: you betray the memory of the Holocaust." Segal was responding to a tweet defending Israel's vaccine distribution during the coronavirus pandemic. Despite Segal's claims, All of Israel's citizens, including Arabs, were provided equal and free access to a coronavirus vaccine. Palestinian leaders rejected the initial delivery of the vaccine stating false expiration dates were the factor.



Segal is also an open supporter of convicted Palestinian terrorists such as Leila Khaled, a leading member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) who participated in the hijacking of an aircraft. Khaled has said that the second intifada failed because it was not violent enough, advocated for the use of children in committing terrorist acts, and compared Zionists to Nazis.
