As can be expected, American Jews are nervous about antisemitism. 63% of American Jews say the status of Jews in the U.S. is less secure compared to one year ago. This is more han double the percentage in 2021.
46% of American Jews say they altered their behavior out of fear of antisemitism. In 2022, this number was 38%.
But one part of the survey shows that most Americans don't buy the propaganda that anti-Zionism is separate from antisemitism.
When asked, "Do you view the statement 'Israel has no right to exist,' as antisemitic or not?", 84% of Americans recognized that as antisemitic. And that is the core belief of so-called "anti-Zionists."
16% disagreeing is still too many, but this shows that the propaganda spread by Israel haters is not nearly as accepted as they pretend it is.
Good news is getting more rare for American Jews. Let's celebrate the wins when they happen.
