Rise in antisemitism amid Gaza conflict

Overview

The conflict in Gaza has been linked to a significant rise in antisemitism, particularly within the United States. Research indicates that US Jewish voters increasingly associate the policies of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with rising domestic prejudice and geopolitical tensions.

Data from the Anti-Defamation League shows that attacks on Jewish people involving deadly weapons increased by 39% in 2025 compared to the previous year. In the US, Jewish people accounted for nearly two-thirds of all religion-based hate crimes in 2025, with high levels of activity reported in New York, New Jersey, and California, alongside harassment of students on college campuses.

Sociological research describes a phenomenon of ‘environmental antisemitism,’ where individuals experience isolation or a need for increased caution in public life due to the social climate.
