{{pp|small=yes}} {{Short description|none}} {{Antisemitism |expanded=Manifestations}} '''New antisemitism''' is the concept that a new form of [[antisemitism]] developed in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, typically manifesting itself as [[anti-Zionism]].<ref name="Fastenbauer 2020">{{cite book |author-last=Fastenbauer |author-first=Raimund |year=2020 |editor1-last=Lange |editor1-first=Armin |editor2-last=Mayerhofer |editor2-first=Kerstin |editor3-last=Porat |editor3-first=Dina |editor4-last=Schiffman |editor4-first=Lawrence H. |title=An End to Antisemitism! – Volume 2: Confronting Antisemitism from the Perspectives of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism |chapter=Islamic Antisemitism: Jews in the Qur’an, Reflections of European Antisemitism, Political Anti-Zionism: Common Codes and Differences |location=[[Berlin]] and [[Boston]] |publisher=[[De Gruyter]] |pages=279–300 |doi=10.1515/9783110671773-018 |doi-access=free |isbn=9783110671773}}</ref>{{rp|296–297}} The concept is included in some definitions of antisemitism, such as the [[working definition of antisemitism]] and the [[3D test of antisemitism]].

The identification of anti-Zionism with antisemitism has long been de rigueur in Jewish communal and broader pro-Israel circles, but only in the last two decades have Israel advocacy groups endeavoured to establish it as a principle of United States anti-discrimination law. The earliest step in this direction was taken in 2004, when Kenneth L. Marcus, the Assistant Secretary of Education for the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) under President George W. Bush, issued a game-changing policy guidance letter empowering OCR staff, for the first time, to investigate complaints under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act alleging pervasive antisemitism on college campuses. |access-date=2023-05-21}}</ref> Proponents of the concept generally posit that in the late 20th and early 21st centuries much of what is purported to be [[criticism of Israel]] is in fact tantamount to [[demonization]], and that together with evidence of a resurgence of antisemitic attacks on [[Jews]],<ref name="USCIRF 2020">{{cite web |url=https://www.uscirf.gov/sites/default/files/USCIRF%202020%20Annual%20Report_42720_new_0.pdf |title=USCIRF 2020 Annual Report: "Rising Anti-Semitism in Europe and Elsewhere" |author=<!--Not stated--> |date=April 2020 |website=Uscirf.gov |location=[[Washington, D.C.]] |publisher=[[United States Commission on International Religious Freedom]] |pages=87–88 |access-date=30 September 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200428174043/https://www.uscirf.gov/sites/default/files/USCIRF%202020%20Annual%20Report_42720_new_0.pdf |archive-date=28 April 2020 |url-status=live}}</ref> desecration of [[Jewish symbols]] and [[Judaism]],<ref name="USCIRF 2020" /> [[Holocaust denial]],<ref name="USCIRF 2020" /> and an increased acceptance of antisemitic beliefs in public discourse and [[online hate speech]],<ref name="USCIRF 2020" /> such demonization represents an evolution in the appearance of antisemitic beliefs.<ref>Manfred Gerstenfeld, [http://www.jcpa.org/phas/phas-gerstenfeld-s05.htm The Deep Roots of Anti-Semitism in European Society].

Let there be no mistake: the new left is the author and the progenitor of the new anti-Semitism. One of the chief tasks of any dialogue with the Gentile world is to prove that the distinction between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism is not a distinction at all. Anti-Zionism is merely the new anti-Semitism. The old classic anti-Semitism declared that equal rights belong to all individuals within the society, except the Jews. The new anti-Semitism says that the right to establish and maintain an independent national sovereign state is the prerogative of all nations, so long as they happen not to be Jewish. And when this right is exercised not by the Maldive Islands, not by the state of Gabon, not by Barbados ... but by the oldest and most authentic of all nationhoods, then this is said to be exclusivism, particularism, and a flight of the Jewish people from its universal mission.</blockquote> In 1974, [[Arnold Forster (ADL)|Arnold Forster]] and [[Benjamin Epstein]] of the [[Anti-Defamation League]] published the book ''The New anti-Semitism''. They expressed concern about what they described as new manifestations of antisemitism coming from radical left, radical right, and pro-Arab figures in the U.S.<ref>Forster, Arnold & Epstein, Benjamin, ''The New Anti-Semitism''.

He advised the American Jewish community that they had two tasks to perform. One task was to show that criticism of the policy, what he called anti-Zionism{{spaced ndash}} that means actually criticisms of the policy of the state of Israel{{spaced ndash}} were anti-Semitism. That's the first task. Second task, if the criticism was made by Jews, their task was to show that it's neurotic self-hatred, needs psychiatric treatment. Then he gave two examples of the latter category. One was [[I.F. Stone]]. The other was me. So, we have to be treated for our psychiatric disorders, and non-Jews have to be condemned for anti-Semitism, if they're critical of the state of Israel. That's understandable why Israeli propaganda would take this position. I don't particularly blame Abba Eban for doing what ambassadors are sometimes supposed to do. But we ought to understand that there is no sensible charge. No sensible charge. There's nothing to respond to. It's not a form of anti-Semitism. It's simply criticism of the criminal actions of a state, period. </blockquote> == Definitions and arguments for and against the concept == === A new phenomenon === In 2003, [[Irwin Cotler]], Professor of Law at [[McGill University]] and a scholar of human rights, has identified nine aspects of what he considers to constitute the "new anti-Semitism":<ref>[[Irwin Cotler]] cited [[Dershowitz, Alan]]. ''The Case For Israel''. [[John Wiley and Sons]], 2003, p. 210-211.</ref> * Genocidal antisemitism: [[Calls for the destruction of Israel|calling for the destruction of Israel]] and/or the Jewish people. * Political antisemitism: denial of the Jewish people's right to [[self-determination]], [[Israel and legitimacy|de-legitimization of Israel]] as a state, attributions to Israel of all the world's evils. * Ideological antisemitism: "Nazifying" Israel by comparing [[Zionism]] and racism. * Theological antisemitism: convergence of [[Islam and antisemitism|Islamic antisemitism]] and Christian [[Supersessionism|"replacement" theology]], drawing on the classical hatred of Jews. * Cultural antisemitism: the emergence of anti-Israel attitudes, sentiments, and discourse in "fashionable" salon intellectuals.{{vague|date=January 2014}} * Economic antisemitism: [[Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions|BDS movements]] and the [[Extraterritoriality|extraterritorial]] application of [[Covenant (law)|restrictive covenants]] against countries trading with Israel. * Holocaust denial. * Anti-Jewish racist terrorism. * International legal discrimination ("Denial to Israel of equality before the law in the international arena"). Cotler defines "classical or traditional anti-Semitism" as "the discrimination against, denial of or assault upon the rights of Jews to live as equal members of whatever host society they inhabit" and "new anti-Semitism" as "discrimination against the right of the Jewish people to live as an equal member of the family of nations{{spaced ndash}}the denial of and assault upon the Jewish people's right even to live{{spaced ndash}}with Israel as the 'collective Jew among the nations{{'"}}.<ref name="Judenstaatrein">{{Cite web |last=Cotler |first=Irwin |date=2009-02-22 |title=Making the world 'Judenstaatrein' |url=https://www.jpost.com/opinion/op-ed-contributors/making-the-world-judenstaatrein |access-date=2025-02-28 |website=The Jerusalem Post |language=en}}</ref> Cotler elaborated on this position in a June 2011 interview for Israeli television. He re-iterated his view that the world is "witnessing a new and escalating ... and even lethal anti-Semitism" focused on hatred of Israel, but cautioned that this type of antisemitism should not be defined in a way that precludes "free speech" and "rigorous debate" about Israel's activities. Cotler said that it is "too simplistic to say that anti-Zionism, ''per se'', is anti-Semitic" and argued that [[Israel and apartheid|labelling Israel as an apartheid state]], while in his view "distasteful", is "still within the boundaries of argument" and not inherently antisemitic. He continued: "It's [when] you say, because it's an apartheid state, [that] it has to be dismantled{{spaced ndash}}then [you've] crossed the line into a racist argument, or an anti-Jewish argument."<ref>[[David Sheen]], [http://www.haaretz.com/weekend/anglo-file/canadian-mp-cotler-calling-israel-an-apartheid-state-can-be-legitimate-free-speech-1.370545 "Canadian MP Cotler: Calling Israel an apartheid state can be legitimate free speech"], ''Haaretz'', 1 July 2011.

They are arrogant, secretive, cunning, always looking to turn a profit. Loyal only to their own, wherever they go they form a state within a state, preying upon the societies in whose midst they dwell.

Today's hostility to Jews as Jews is based on the [[Arab–Israeli conflict]], not on ancient European fantasies. Israel proclaims itself as the state of the Jewish people, and many Jews align themselves with Israel for that very reason. It is out of this alignment that the hostility to Jews as Jews arises, rather than hostility to Israelis or to Zionists. Klug agrees that it is a prejudice, because it is a generalization about individuals; nevertheless, he argues, it is "not rooted in the ideology of 'the Jew'," and is therefore a different phenomenon from antisemitism.<ref name=KlugCatalyst /> In 2006, [[Norman Finkelstein]] argued that there has been no significant rise in antisemitism: "What does the evidence show? There has been good investigation done, serious investigation. All the evidence shows there's no evidence at all for a rise of a new anti-Semitism, whether in Europe or in North America. The evidence is zero. And, in fact, there's a new book put out by an Israel stalwart. His name is [[Walter Laqueur]], a very prominent scholar. It's called ''The Changing Face of Anti-Semitism''. It just came out, 2006, from [[Oxford University Press]]. He looks at the evidence, and he says no.

According to Lewis, antisemitism is marked by two distinct features: Jews are judged according to a standard different from that applied to others, and they are accused of cosmic evil. He writes that what he calls the first wave of antisemitism arose with the advent of [[Christianity]] because of the Jews' rejection of [[Jesus]] as [[Messiah]]. The second wave, racial antisemitism, emerged in Spain when large numbers of Jews were forcibly [[Religious conversion|converted]], and doubts about the sincerity of the converts led to ideas about the importance of "''la limpieza de sangre''", purity of blood.<ref name=LewisBrandeis /> He associates the third wave with the [[Arab people|Arabs]] and writes that it arose only in part because of the establishment of the State of Israel. Until the 19th century, [[Muslim]]s had regarded Jews with what Lewis calls "amused, tolerant superiority{{spaced ndash}}they were seen as physically weak, cowardly and unmilitary{{spaced ndash}}and although Jews living in Muslim countries were not treated as equals, they were shown a certain amount of respect. The Western form of antisemitism{{spaced ndash}}what Lewis calls "the cosmic, [[satan]]ic version of Jew hatred{{spaced ndash}}arrived in the Middle East in several stages, beginning with [[Mission (Christian)|Christian missionaries]] in the 19th century and continued to grow slowly into the 20th century up to the establishment of the [[Nazi Germany|Third Reich]]. He writes that it increased because of the humiliation of the Israeli military victories of [[1948 Arab–Israeli War|1948]] and [[Six-Day War|1967]].<ref name=LewisBrandeis /> Into this mix entered the [[United Nations]]. Lewis argues that the international public response and the United Nations' handling of the 1948 refugee situation convinced the Arab world that discrimination against Jews was acceptable. When the ancient Jewish community in [[East Jerusalem]] was [[Jordanian annexation of the West Bank|evicted and its monuments desecrated or destroyed]], they were offered no help. Similarly, when Jewish refugees [[Jewish exodus from Arab and Muslim countries|fled or were driven out of Arab countries]], no help was offered, but elaborate arrangements were made for Arabs who fled or were driven out of the area that became Israel. All the Arab governments involved in the conflict announced that they would not admit Israelis of any religion into their territories, and that they would not give visas to Jews, no matter which country they were citizens of. Lewis argues that the failure of the United Nations to protest sent a clear message to the Arab world.<ref name=LewisBrandeis /> He writes that this third wave of antisemitism has in common with the first wave that Jews are able to be part of it. With religious antisemitism, Jews were able to distance themselves from Judaism, and Lewis writes that some even reached high rank within the church and the [[Inquisition]]. With racial antisemitism, this was not possible, but with the new, ideological, antisemitism, Jews are once again able to join the critics. The new antisemitism also allows non-Jews, he argues, to criticize or attack Jews without feeling overshadowed by the crimes of the Nazis.<ref name=LewisBrandeis /> === Antisemitism, but not a new phenomenon === [[File:Yehuda Bauer 1.jpg|thumb|upright|[[Yehuda Bauer]] argues that "new" antisemitism is not actually new.]] [[Yehuda Bauer]], professor of [[Holocaust studies]] at the [[Hebrew University of Jerusalem]], considers the concept "new antisemitism" false, describing the phenomenon as old, latent antisemitism that recurs when triggered.

He writes that most contemporary discussions concerning antisemitism have become focused on issues concerning Israel and Zionism, and that the equation of anti-Zionism with antisemitism has become for many a "new orthodoxy". He adds that this redefinition has often resulted in "Jews attacking other Jews for their alleged anti-Semitic anti-Zionism". While Lerman accepts that exposing alleged Jewish antisemitism is "legitimate in principle", he adds that the growing literature in this field "exceeds all reason"; the attacks are often vitriolic, and encompass views that are not inherently anti-Zionist. Lerman argues that this redefinition has had unfortunate repercussions. He writes that serious scholarly research into contemporary antisemitism has become "virtually non-existent", and that the subject is now most frequently studied and analyzed by "people lacking any serious expertise in the subject, whose principal aim is to excoriate Jewish critics of Israel and to promote the "anti-Zionism = anti-Semitism" equation. Lerman concludes that this redefinition has ultimately served to stifle legitimate discussion, and that it cannot create a basis on which to fight antisemitism.<ref>[http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1020490.html Antony Lerman, "Jews attacking Jews"], ''Ha'aretz'', 12 September 2008, accessed 13 September 2008.</ref> Peter Beaumont, writing in ''[[The Observer]]'', agrees that proponents of the concept of "new antisemitism" have attempted to co-opt anti-Jewish sentiment and attacks by some European Muslims as a way to silence opposition to the policies of the Israeli government.

Oded Grajew, one of the founders of the [[World Social Forum]], has written that the WSF "is not anti-Semitic, anti-American, or even anti-socially-responsible capitalism". He claims that some fringe parties have attempted to infiltrate the WSF's demonstrations and promote demonstrations of their own, but adds that "[t]he success of the WSF ... is a threat to political extremist groups that resort to violence and hatred".

The organizers allegedly included a number of Islamic groups, such as ''Présence Musulmane'', ''Secours Islamique'', and ''Collectif des Musulmans de France''. [[Tariq Ramadan]], the grandson of [[Hassan al-Banna]], the Egyptian founder of the [[Muslim Brotherhood]], also attended meetings. A few weeks earlier, Ramadan had published a controversial article on a website{{spaced ndash}} after ''Le Monde'' and ''Le Figaro'' refused to publish it{{spaced ndash}} criticizing several French intellectuals, who according to the institute, were either Jewish or "others he mistakenly thought were Jewish," for having "supposedly betrayed their universalist beliefs in favor of unconditional support for Zionism and Israel."<ref name=RothFrance /> [[Bernard-Henri Lévy]], one of the intellectuals who was criticized, called on the French anti-globalization movement to distance itself from Ramadan. In an interview with ''Le Monde'', Lévy said: "Mr. Ramadan, dear anti-globalizationist friends, is not and cannot be one of yours. ... I call you on you quickly to distance yourselves from this character who, in crediting the idea of an elitist conspiracy under the control of Zionism, is only inflaming people's thoughts and opening the way to the worst."<ref name=Monnot>Monnot, Caroline & Ternisien, Xavier.

One activist told the newspaper that "[o]ne of the characteristics of the European Social Forum is the stark rise in immigrant and Muslim organizations. It is an important phenomenon and a positive one in many ways."<ref name=Monnot /> Another activist, Peter Khalfa, said: "Ramadan's essay is not anti-Semitic. It is dangerous to wave the red flag of anti-Semitism at any moment. However, it is a text marked partly by Ramadan's communitarian thought and which communicates his view of the world to others."<ref name=Monnot /> One of the leaders of the anti-globalization movement in France, José Bové of the ''Confédération Paysanne'', told ''Le Monde'': "The anti-globalization movement defends universalist points of view which are therefore necessarily secular in their political expression. That there should be people of different cultures and religions is only natural. The whole effort is to escape such determinisms."<ref name=Monnot /> === Concern within the political left === [[Naomi Klein]], a Jewish Canadian writer and activist in the anti-globalization movement, expressed concern in 2002 at finding antisemitic rhetoric on some activist websites that she had visited: "I couldn't help thinking about all the recent events I've been to where [[Islamophobia|anti-Muslim]] violence was rightly condemned, but no mention was made of attacks on Jewish synagogues, cemeteries, and community centers."<ref name=Klein>{{cite news |last1=Klein |first1=Naomi |title=Sharon's Best Weapon: The left must confront anti-Semitism head-on |url=http://www.inthesetimes.com/issue/26/13/feature2.shtml |date=April 26, 2002 |work=In These Times |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060822075533/https://inthesetimes.com/issue/26/13/feature2.shtml |archive-date=August 22, 2006}}</ref> Klein urged activists to confront antisemitism as part of their work for social justice. She also suggested that allegations of antisemitism can be often politically motivated, and that activists should avoid political simplifications that could be perceived as antisemitic:<ref name="Klein" /> <blockquote>The [anti-]globalization movement isn't anti-Semitic, it just hasn't fully confronted the implications of diving into the [[Middle East]] conflict. Most people on the left are simply choosing sides. In the Middle East, where one side is under occupation and the other has the U.S. military behind it, the choice seems clear. But it is possible to criticize Israel while forcefully condemning the rise of anti-Semitism. And it is equally possible to be pro-Palestinian independence without adopting a simplistic pro-Palestinian/anti-Israel dichotomy, a mirror image of the [[good versus evil]] equations so beloved by President [[George W. Bush]]. </blockquote> In October 2004, the ''[[New Internationalist]]'' magazine published a special issue covering the insertion of antisemitic rhetoric into some progressive debates.<ref name=internationalist>[http://www.newint.org/issue372/index.htm "Judeophobia"], ''New Internationalist'', October 2004.</ref> Adam Ma'anit wrote:<ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Ma'anit |first=Adam |title=A human balance |url=http://newint.org/features/2004/10/01/keynote/ |date=October 2004 |magazine=New Internationalist |issue=372 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150502022403/http://newint.org/features/2004/10/01/keynote/ |archive-date=May 2, 2015}}</ref> <blockquote>Take ''Adbusters'' magazine's founder Kalle Lasn's recent editorial rant against Jewish neoconservatives.{{nbsp}}...
