Anti-Jewish hate crimes have dramatically increased post 7 October 2023, mirroring the antisemitic incidents of the entire previous three years combined, indicating a troubling resurgence of age-old prejudices.
The narrative of antisemitism has evolved; it is now shaped by perceptions surrounding Israel's actions, with 'alibi antisemitism' creating justifications for hatred that mirror historic scapegoating tactics.
While overt antisemitism is measurable, the subtler, day-to-day manifestations of prejudice, like social exclusion and disdain, are more pervasive and inflict deeper psychological wounds on the Jewish community.
Jews today are not merely victims of visible hostility; the insidious nature of current antisemitism is marked by social alienation and the normalization of harmful perceptions about their identity.
