Maccabee Task Force - We Combat Antisemitism on Campuses

The Latest From @MacTaskForce

Standing beside both the Israeli and Druze flags, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar spoke about religion as a source of faith, strength, and love instead of hatred. He emphasized that respect for all people and all religions must remain a core value. This is especially important in a region too often consumed by extremism and division.

The partnership between Israel’s diverse faith communities, from Jews to Druze, reflects a vision of coexistence rooted in mutual respect rather than sectarian hatred.
The Trump administration has filed a second lawsuit against UCLA, accusing the university of not taking action to protect Jewish and pro-Israel students from harassment during pro-Palestinian protests in 2024.

For many Jewish students,  life on campus during the encampments meant harassment, exclusion, intimidation, and fear in spaces that are supposed to promote learning and safety.

Universities cannot claim to value diversity and inclusion while failing to protect Jewish students from targeted hostility.
Reality and truth MATTER.

In a viral exchange, popular streamer Sneako appeared visibly confused when an Arab Christian Israeli explained that he worships freely in Israel and experiences coexistence firsthand. While Sneako repeatedly tried to convince him that Jews secretly hate him, the Israeli calmly rejected the narrative and responded that love is stronger than hate.

The conversation also exposed the disconnect between online propaganda and reality when Sneako claimed Christians freely practice in Iran. The arab Israeli disputed this claim, noting the severe restrictions faced not only by Christians, but even by Sunni Muslims under the Islamic Republic of Iran’s regime-controlled religious system.

Too many influencers push false narratives about the Middle East without understanding the people actually living there. Honest conversations grounded in lived experience matter more than ideological slogans.
BREAKING: A fire broke out at a major kosher supermarket in London’s Golders Green neighborhood, with police and firefighters saying it’s too early to determine a cause. Large emergency response teams were on scene quickly. No injuries were reported.

Golders Green is one of the UK’s most prominent Jewish communities, and this comes amid an alarming spate of violent antisemitic incidents in the area, including an arson attack against ambulances, and a stabbing attack targeting Orthodox Jews at a bus stop.

Jewish communities should not have to fear that their synagogues, businesses, schools, or neighborhoods could become targets simply because they are Jewish.
The incredible Emirati peace activist Laoy Alshareef explained a few days ago that Hezbollah’s constant attacks against Israeli civilians since the ‘cease-fire’ constitute major breaches of that agreement. 

As Laoy puts it, “defending Lebanese sovereignty doesn’t mean allowing Hezbollah to turn Lebanon into a battlefield.”

Both Israeli and Lebanese civilians have had enough of Hezbollah’s control in the region. All civilians deserve safety from the grip of the Iranian regime’s terror proxies.

The U.S. Ambassador to the Netherlands, Joseph Popolo, met with Eddo Verdoner, the Netherlands’ National Coordinator for Countering Antisemitism. He commended Verdoner’s work and the ‘urgency of his efforts to secure university campuses for all students and vigilantly fight against online hate.’ 

The U.S. Ambassador also communicated that while the United States will always defend and protect the right to freedom of expression, it will also not “sit idly by” as individuals spread harassment and antisemitism. 

We need all of our public officials fighting against the scourge of antisemitism around the world. Only then, will hate be defeated.
Israel sent a message of solidarity with the American people and their fallen soldiers on Memorial Day.

On this Memorial Day, we remember the fallen heroes of the United States Armed Forces who gave everything in defense of our country and the freedoms we hold dear.

Among them are Americans who served in dangerous missions against regimes and terrorist organizations that threaten innocent people around the world, including the Islamic Republic of Iran and its proxies.

We honor their courage, their sacrifice, and the families who carry their memory forward.

Their sacrifices will never be forgotten. May their memories be blessed. 🕯️🇺🇸
