Alarming Rise in Complaints by American Jewish Children of Antisemitism at School
(Jerusalem Post) Zvika Klein - The Israeli-American Council's (IAC) School Watch initiative reported a rise of hundreds of percent for complaints on behalf of Jewish children on antisemitism in public schools. IAC CEO Shoham Nicolet told the Jerusalem Post: "I don't think that Israel fully understands the depth of the strategic significance and effect that these antisemitic incidents have on Israel's perception in the U.S....Hate and incitement have become more popular at younger ages. We need to combat it." "Antisemitism is new to Israeli-Americans," Nicolet explained. Israelis living in the U.S. "are still learning what it means to be a minority."
