We commend the Senate for unanimously passing the bipartisan Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act, which @ADL endorsed with a coalition in May over China's discriminatory, outrageous, & arbitrary detention of hundreds of thousands of peaceful Uyghur civilians:

We are disturbed by MK Zohar’s hateful comments vilifying Arab citizens of Israel. Labeling Israeli Arabs - who are full and equal citizens - as a threat, could lead to discrimination and even violence. Zohar should apologize.

As a teenager in Iraq my Jewish grandmother watched her best friend raped and killed and another friend shot along her 8 siblings and her mother. 150,000 Jews lost everything and were forced to leave to Israel, the only country to accept them. My father and his family were

My life’s path was forever altered on that dark day. Realizing my father’s dream of bringing us to a country where Jews were safe was under threat, I joined @ADL to fight antisemitism, recognizing that we can’t take democracy & its protections for granted.

Today marks seven years since the Unite the Right rally in #Charlottesville , VA, where white supremacists marched, chanting, "Jews will not replace us," and murdered counter-protester Heather Heyer. Our thoughts are with her family today and always.

A timely reminder that, while responsible actors are striving for peace, the terrorists firing rockets at Israeli population centers are encouraged, funded, and equipped by Tehran.

We welcome FIFA’s swift actions to fine soccer Federations whose fans and supporters display anti-Semitic and discriminatory banners during the World Cup. Bringing civility and rooting out hatred from sports should continue to be a priority.

#Iran remains the leading state-sponsor of #terrorism and has targeted Jewish communities for decades. Germany/EU must react strongly.

The French Govt’s protection of Jewish community sites is not enough! Every Jew needs to be and feel safe. In their homes, in the streets, in the super market. This is a call to action!

The anti-Zionist belief that one must eradicate Zionism in order for Palestinian national aspirations to be realized is a toxic notion that must be publicly repudiated. My @TimesofIsrael piece on how current events are used to vilify Israel/Israelis & Jews

We stand with @coniboficial in condemning #Holocaust comparisons by Brazilian FM @ernestofaraujo and demanding a retraction. During #COVID19 global leaders must refrain from equating the pandemic with Nazi actions leading to the murder of 6 million Jews.

We stand with the @comjudiachile in condemning the presence of #NeoNazi marchers at a rally in #Chile . These #Hateful ideologies have caused so much suffering and destruction and should have no place in democratic demonstrations.

The stories of discrimination and abuse captured in this @BariWeiss piece are harrowing. Judaism does not condone violence; it values equality and tolerance and that is what @Womenofthewall and all others deserve when they wish to pray at the #Kotel .

After Spanish journalist @RaholaOficial , a winner of ADL’s Daniel Pearl Award, spoke out in support of Israelis, a radical left-wing Catalan group vandalized her house. We condemn such acts of vandalism in attempts to intimidate pro-Israel voices.

I’m here in Buenos Aires commemorating the 30th anniversary of the #Amia30a ños bombing perpetrated by terror organization Hezbollah and the brutal Iranian regime killing 85 and injuring hundreds. And yet, still no justice for the victims.
