The Anti-Defamation League released a report Wednesday listing more than 3,000 antisemitic incidents committed in the three months since Oct. 7, a stunning figure that tops full-year tallies every year except 2022.
Jonathan Greenblatt, the group’s chief executive, said in an embargoed news release that the count — which the group calculated as 360% higher than the same period in 2022 — represented a threat to Jews “unprecedented in modern history.”
But the ADL acknowledged in a statement to the Forward that it significantly broadened its definition of antisemitic incidents following the Oct. 7 Hamas attack to include rallies that feature “anti-Zionist chants and slogans,” events that appear to account for around 1,317 of the total count.
