A group tracking antisemitism in Germany said Tuesday that it documented a drastic increase of antisemitic incidents in the country in the month after Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7.
The RIAS group said it recorded 994 incidents, which is an average of 29 incidents per day and an increase of 320% compared to the same time period in 2022. The group looked at the time period from Oct. 7 to Nov. 9.
Among the 994 antisemitic incidents, there were three cases of extreme violence, 29 attacks, targeted damage to 72 properties, 32 threats, four mass mailings and 854 cases of offensive behavior.
Many Jews in Germany experienced antisemitic incidents in their everyday lives and even those who weren’t exposed to any antisemitic incidents reported feelings of insecurity and fear, said RIAS, which is an abbreviation in German for the Department for Research and Information on Antisemitism.
Your statement isn’t clear, and I don’t understand your question, but news outlets generally do have biases which makes it important to sample different sources. Al Jazeera is a very good source to balance against western ones but they’re also heavily biased… but the AJC I had mentioned earlier isn’t a news outlet, it’s just a proganda think tank that declared themselves the authority on what’s antisemitic in America… and they’re not representative of jewish-americans. This might be new england bias but most jews I’ve met are antizionist.
