On October 7, 2023, over 1,200 people were massacred in Israel by Hamas, the governing entity of Gaza and designated terrorist organization in many countries including the U.S., whose charter calls for the elimination of Israel and the destruction of the Jewish people. It was the deadliest attack against Jews since the Holocaust. Jewish communities worldwide watched in horror.
But what followed was even more chilling: Celebration.
For a searing and insightful account of the October 7th attacks and their global reverberations, we recommend reading Douglas Murray’s On Democracies and Death Cults: Israel and the Future of Civilization – an unflinching analysis of the ideological roots of modern antisemitism and the West’s moral crisis in the face of terror.
People poured out into the streets of major cities all over the world in support of Hamas’ rape and massacre of innocent young women, the killing of children, young people, and elderly civilians, and the taking of 250 hostages.
On college campuses, students, faculty, and outside extremists protested U.S. support for and investment in Israel and blocked access for Jewish students to buildings and libraries, harassed them, frightened them, attacked them, tore down hostage posters, praised the violence of Hamas, and and shouted “From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free,” a call for the elimination of Israel and all the Jews living there, and “Globalize the Intifada,” a slogan advocating for violence against Jews worldwide.
Major media outlets, the UN, NGOs, and others ignored or downplayed the atrocities that took place on October 7 and were indifferent to the disparity of treatment of Jewish students versus other minorities by universities.
The wave of anti-Israel incitement on social media and on college campuses has quickly morphed into real world violence with deadly consequences.
On May 21, 2025, two Israeli Embassy staffers, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, were shot and killed in Washington, D.C., in what authorities described as an act of terror. A 31-year-old Illinois man shot the young couple in the back 21 times as they were exiting an event at the Capital Jewish Museum.
Less than a month later, in Boulder, Colorado, eight women and seven men were injured during a peaceful march in support of Israeli hostages when a man threw Molotov cocktails into the crowd while yelling “Free Palestine.” Karen Diamond, an 82-year-old Jewish woman, died as a result of that attack.
The virulent wave of antisemitism and anti-Israel propaganda sweeping the West today is not accidental—it is the result of a coordinated coalition of actors, ideologies, and institutions aligned against Israel, the West, and the values of liberty and democracy. These factions have united in what analysts call the “Red–Green Alliance,” a strategic alliance between far-left ideologues and radical Islamists.
This coalition includes:
Including the Muslim Brotherhood, Iran’s regime, Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, the Houthis, Boko Haram, and fronts like CAIR and Students for Justice in Palestine. These groups exploit charitable status and corporate structures to spread extremism and funnel resources to terrorist groups.
Some in this movement adopt antisemitic rhetoric eerily reminiscent of the Nazi era, casting Jews as the source of global ills.
A radical anti-Israel organization that justified the October 7th massacres as “an act of resistance” and falsely accuses Israel of genocide and apartheid.
While Israel is the only country in the Middle East with LGBTQ+ rights, some activists in this community align with pro-Palestinian causes that ultimately work against their own freedoms.
Some within this group defend speech that calls for the genocide of Jews under the banner of free expression, paradoxically rejecting similar speech protections for others.
A segment of this political movement has demonstrated consistent patterns of antisemitism, anti-Western sentiment, and hostility toward democratic values.
Mirroring their far-left counterparts, they too spread antisemitic, anti-American, and anti-democratic propaganda.
Some chapters and leaders have expressed support for Palestinian terrorism, equating the U.S. and Israel with oppression, while ignoring the atrocities of Hamas and Iran.
Sarsour, an outspoken Islamist and Democratic Socialist, has pushed anti-Israel narratives under the guise of intersectional feminism.
Frequently issues disproportionate condemnations of Israel while turning a blind eye to egregious human rights abuses by authoritarian regimes.
Once-respected institutions, both organizations have adopted an anti-Israel bias that undermines their credibility.
Many academic institutions have failed to address or have enabled the proliferation of antisemitic and anti-Israel sentiments, fostering hostile environments for Jewish students.
Together, this coalition has created an echo chamber that mainstreams antisemitism, erodes free societies, and threatens the very foundation of democratic norms.

ARCHER at House 88’s work is made possible by the generous support of donors like you who want to make a tangible difference in ending antisemitism.
Although we were horrified and saddened by the death and destruction suffered by Israelis due to Iranian missile attacks, we were elated by the success Israel and the United States had against the murderous regime in Iran. We were especially gladdened to see the U.S. enter the war on Israel’s side and take decisive action against Iran’s nuclear sites.
We want to see the end of the Iranian regime, its weapons of war, and its proxies, and we wish that that would suffice to nullify the need for ARCHER at House 88. But we do not believe this is the case. On the contrary, Israel and the U.S.’s completely necessary actions could lead to even worse antisemitism around the world and even more violence. There is a vast network of Muslim Brotherhood affiliated entities in every Arab and Western country, and parts of Africa and Asia. The job of dismantling this network is just beginning. ARCHER at House 88 is an important weapon in this fight.
