What happened after October 7 did not begin on October 7.
The slogans. The protests. The justifications for terrorism on college campuses. The hostility toward Jews that erupted across the Western world were not spontaneous reactions to a single event. They were the visible symptoms of a much deeper intellectual movement that had been growing for decades.
That is the story at the heart of American Intellectual Antisemitism.
Part memoir, part investigation, and part warning, the book traces how ideas born in academia reshaped the way millions think about Jews and Israel, how old hatreds came to masquerade as moral virtue, and what it will take to confront them.
Drawing on history, psychology, sociology, political science, and personal experience, the book explores how we got here, why ideas that previous generations would have immediately recognized as antisemitic became widely accepted, and where these trends are headed next.
More than a story about antisemitism, this is a story about how ideas spread, how institutions change, and how entire societies can lose the ability to recognize old hatreds when they appear in new forms.
It is also the story of a movement that is not merely anti-Jewish and anti-Israeli, but increasingly anti-American.
Today, more than ever, books like this face an uphill battle. Many Jewish, Israeli, and Zionist voices are ignored, sidelined, or deemed too controversial to publish.
That is why pre-orders matter. They give readers the power to determine which books get promoted, stocked, reviewed, translated, and ultimately which stories get told.
Please pre-order a copy today.
And consider pre-ordering one for a friend, a colleague, your child in college, a neighbor, or someone who just doesnāt get it yet. The more people read, the more we can make a difference.
The more people who understand these ideas, the harder they become to ignore.
Every reader counts.
Pre-order now.

Beautiful day marching up Fifth Avenue with @MikeBloomberg for the annual Israel Day Parade.
The NYPD was not messing around with security: this was the most extensive security plan that the NYPD has ever put together for this event so that everyone could celebrate safely.
Thank you to every member of the NYPD who was out today protecting our city.

NEW: President Trump goes OFF on Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones:
"I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon ā Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs. Theyāre stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too! Look at their past, look at their record. They donāt have what it takes, and they never did! Theyāve all been thrown off Television, lost their Shows, and arenāt even invited on TV because nobody cares about them, theyāre NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS, and will say anything necessary for some āfreeā and cheap publicity. Now they think they get some āclicksā because they have Third Rate Podcasts, but nobodyās talking about them, and their views are the opposite of MAGA ā Or I wouldnāt have won the Presidential Election in a LANDSLIDE. MAGA agrees with me, and just gave CNN a 100% Approval Rating of āTRUMP,ā not Hand Flailing Fools like Tucker Carlson, who couldnāt even finish College, he was a broken man when he got fired from Fox, and heās never been the same ā Perhaps he should see a good psychiatrist! Or Megyn Kelly, who nastily asked me the now famous, āOnly Rosie OāDonnell,ā question, or āCrazyā Candace Owens, who accuses the Highly Respected First Lady of France of being a man, when she is not, and will hopefully win lots of money in the ongoing lawsuit. Actually, to me, the First Lady of France is a far more beautiful woman than Candace, in fact, itās not even close! Or Bankrupt Alex Jones, who says some of the dumbest things, and lost his entire fortune, as he should have, for his horrendous attack on the families of the Sandy Hook shooting victims, ridiculously claiming it was a hoax. These so-called āpunditsā are LOSERS, and they always will be! Now Fake News CNN, The Failing New York Times, and all of the other Radical Left āNewsā Organizations, are āhailingā them, and giving them āpositiveā press for the first time in their lives. Theyāre not āMAGA,ā theyāre losers, just trying to latch on to MAGA. As President, I could get them on my side anytime I want to, but when they call, I donāt return their calls because Iām too busy on World and Country Affairs and, after a few times, they go ānasty,ā just like Marjorie āTraitorā Brown, but I no longer care about that stuff, I only care about doing right for our Country. MAGA is about WINNING and STRENGTH in not allowing Iran to have Nuclear Weapons. MAGA is about MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and these people have no idea how to do that, BUT I DO, because THE UNITED STATES IS NOW THE āHOTTESTā COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

The Senator who accused the Washington Jewish community leader of dual loyalty and said our members are not pro-America is āappalledā by this attack.

I found 70+ posts liked by Rama Duwaji, Zohran Mamdani's wife, of radical anti-Israel contentāand even Holocaust inversion.

Hi everyone, I've learned that my article for Rolling Stone really, really upsets the anti-Israel fanatics.
So please, don't repost my latest article for @RollingStone, unless you want them to be even angrier š¢

If this is true, it is beyond outrageous. NYCās Jewish community - the largest in the United States - should not have to fear for their safety under Mayor Mamdani
SCOOP @jewishinsider via @WillBredderman: "Zohran Mamdaniās wife liked social media posts celebrating Oct. 7 attacks"
"NYC First Lady Rama Duwaji showed support for far-left orgs applauding Hamas rampage"

Iāve seen celebrations in bunkers, some in streets, many with their loved onesāwherever the global Jewish community finds themselves:
Iām wishing you a joyful Purim.

Tucker and I had a very twisty and frankly confusing discussion about the meaning of Zionism.
Now, I have no idea if Tucker was trying to be difficult or we were just talking past each other, but he started out the discussion on Zionism by saying he wanted to ask me in my capacity as a former Baptist minister about the "theology" of Christian Zionism.
But, he kept dragging it to discussions about other topics, literally other countries, things that have nothing to do with theology and certainly not with Israel, Zionism, or anything else.
So let me just make it really clear.
Since Tucker actually seemed more interested in the definition of political Zionism, it's simple: Zionism is the belief that Israel has a right to exist in safety and security. That's it. Pretty simple and straightforward.
Lots of Christians who don't have a theological basis for supporting Israel are actually Zionists because they support Israel's right to exist in safety and security.
The last two Popes, for example, both came here to Israel, Pope Benedict in May 2009 and Pope Francis in May 2014, and both of them said the exact same words:
"Let it be universally recognized that the State of Israel has the right to exist, and to enjoy peace and security within internationally agreed borders."
Pope John Paul II, arguably one of the most influential of anyone in the Christian faith and a remarkable man was also a "Christian Zionist."
Tucker, I couldn't get you to say you support Israel's right to exist during our interview. But as I told you then and I'll say it again, someone doesn't need to believe it's commanded by the Bible in order to be a Zionist. But if one DOES believe the Bible (and I do) then it's even more compelling.
All you need to do is believe that Israel has a right to exist.
Why can't you just say that? I asked you multiple times during our interview and not once did you give me a direct answer. You refused to say whether or not Israel has a right to exist. I hope you will state your answer to that simple question soon.

Good morning. Palestinians raped this woman every single day she was held in captivity. Imagine getting raped every single day for over a year like it was brushing your teeth.
Itās amazing to me how many people conceive of the Palestinians like they are rational Westerners fighting a noble resistance.
The truth is they are a religious death cult whose culture revolves entirely around, killing and hurting Jews. They will sacrifice their children, they will destroy their future over and over and over again if it means hurting Israel.
Itās a hard pill to accept, but itās not just Hamas. The Palestinians in Gaza support Hamas overwhelmingly. So do the ones in the West Bank.
Israel has every right in the world to defend itself from these monsters. And youāre literally insane if you think they deserve a state to conduct these attack at scale.

AIPAC and our 6 million grassroots membersāDemocrats and Republicans from all 50 statesāare proud to help expand the U.S.-Israel relationship!
Funded by Americans.
Directed by Americans.

Dear UN Secretary General @AntonioGuterres:
Dear UN High Commissioner for Human Rights @Volker_Turk:
On behalf of UN Watch, we write to express our outrage at the horrific mass killings of protesters by the Islamic Republic of Iran.
We call on you without delay to ensure emergency action by the United Nations to address the Islamic regimeās assault against the people of Iran, which amounts to grave, widespread and systematic violations of fundamental human rights.
Since December 28th, large-scale protests have erupted across Iran, reflecting longstanding demands of the Iranian people for fundamental rights, dignity, and accountability.
The response of the regime has been marked by extreme and unlawful violence. Latest reports estimate that over 3,000 protesters have been killed by the regime since the demonstrations began, and more than 10,000 injured, and many more arbitrarily detained or forcibly disappeared. Bodies are piling up in makeshift morgues.
Regime security forces have used live ammunition against unarmed civilians, carried out mass arrests, and subjected detainees to torture and other ill-treatment.
Detainees have been denied access to lawyers, family members, and medical care. Journalists, students, women, human rights defenders, and members of ethnic and religious minorities have been deliberately targeted.
Internet shutdowns and severe restrictions on information have further obscured the full scale of violations and impeded independent scrutiny.
These acts constitute serious violations of international human rights law and amount to crimes under international law. They stand in direct contravention of the Islamic Republic's obligations under the United Nations Charter and core international human rights treaties, including protections for the right to life, freedom of expression, peaceful assembly, and due process.
The continuing failure of the international community to respond decisively risks enabling further bloodshed and repression. At this critical juncture, decisive leadership from the United Nations system and its Member States is indispensable.
We therefore urgently call on you to:
ā¢ Call for the convening of an emergency session of the United Nations Security Council, the General Assembly, and the Human Rights Council, to address the rapidly deteriorating human rights situation in Iran;
ā¢ Publicly and unequivocally condemn the horrific killing of protesters and other grave violations of international law committed by Iranian authorities;
ā¢ Demand the establishment of independent, international investigative mechanisms to ensure documentation, accountability, and justice;
ā¢ Demand the immediate release of all individuals arbitrarily detained for exercising their fundamental rights; and
ā¢ Ensure sustained UN monitoring and reporting on Iran until the violence and repression cease.
The people of Iran are riskingāand losingātheir lives for the peaceful exercise of rights guaranteed under international law. You must ensure that the voices of Iranian protesters are heard, protected, and upheld.
The credibility of the United Nations depends on a response that matches the scale and urgency of this crisis.
Sincerely,
Hillel C. Neuer
Executive Director
United Nations Watch
