Earlier this month, Israel was invaded by the terrorist group known as Hamas. Ever since October 7, Israel's found itself on the receiving end of airstrikes, in addition to its civilians being kidnapped, tortured, and executed.

While the Western world has collectively rallied around the country, there are pockets of individuals within the West who do not support Israel. Some of these folks believe the ongoing onslaught against the Middle Eastern nation is "liberation" for Palestinian individuals.

Some people with anti-Israel sentiment have even gone as far as ripping down posters of missing Jews and openly professing their love for Hamas. To make matters even worse, increasing incidents of Jewish individuals being threatened, attacked, and terrorized continue to take place.

A closer look at the details

Around the world, virtually everyone has seen various protests, many of them violent, happening in support of Palestine. Though the situation is much deeper than rowdy demonstrators getting out of hand on occasion.

Just last week, disturbing video footage emerged online of Jewish students attending Cooper Union college barricaded inside of a library. On the other side of the library, pro-Palestine supporters shouted and banged on the doors separating them from the Jewish students.

Jews attending Cooper Union have already spoken out about the incident. They explained feeling fearful and admitted they don't know what would have happened if pro-Palestine demonstrators managed to breach the library's doors.

Then, just this past weekend, the world got wind of threats made online against Jewish students attending Cornell University. Law enforcement is now investigating the matter. Though the FBI is aware that the threats of violence made could constitute a hate crime.

Global leaders currently raising red flags

Various antisemitic displays haven't been limited to the United States by any means.

As a matter of fact, European Union official Michael O’Flaherty just reported antisemitism remains "deeply ingrained" within the continent's society.

In Austria, a 300% uptick in antisemitic incidents emerged. Then, in Britain, there's been a 13-times increase of anti-Jewish hate crimes this month from October 2022. Other nations like Germany also face similar problems with hatred against Jewish individuals.

Amid all that's happening, folks aware of past atrocities against the Jewish community have begun speaking out. They caution that to allow history to repeat itself is unacceptable.
