In the US in 2022, the number of anti-Semitic incidents reached an all-time high.
In 2022, a third more anti-Semitic incidents were recorded in the United States than in the previous year - 3,697 cases, the Anti-Defamation League found. This is the highest figure in the entire history of monitoring, which began in 1979.
Half of the incidents involving anti-Semitic vandalism involved the use of swastikas.
In 2022, there were 111 attacks on Jews and 589 attacks on Jewish institutions, mostly synagogues. Among them was the taking hostage of three parishioners and the rabbi of a synagogue in Texas. About 60 cases related to hatred of Jews referred to anti-Semitic statements by rapper Kanye West.
Analysts from the Anti-Defamation League cannot point to any one factor that has led to a sharp increase in anti-Semitic speeches.
The Foundation for Combating Anti-Semitism launched the “Fight Back Jew Hatred” campaign. According to statistics, 2.4% of the US population identifies as Jewish, and 55% of hate crimes are committed against Jews.
We are honored to stand with @FCASorg and other partner organizations in the fight against Jewish hate.
