According to the White House, those making 'violent antisemitic threats' in the U.S. are not going to be classified as 'domestic terrorists.'
The White House indicated Tuesday that people in the U.S. making 'violent antisemitic threats' were not going to be classified as 'domestic terrorists.
don't know that we're classifying people as domestic terrorists for that. I mean, that's really a question better left to law enforcement. I'm not aware that there's been such a characterization of that,' Kirby responded. Concern has been growing across the country, especially among Jewish Americans, about rising antisemitism following the Oct. 7 attack on Israel perpetrated by Hamas, a terrorist organization.
The growing hostile rhetoric includes what appears to be a globally orchestrated antisemitic campaign that many students fear will incite physical violence on campuses as the war escalates. 'Knowing you're sitting in class next to someone who advocates the destruction of Israel is frightening,' one Georgetown Law School student told Fox News Digital earlier this month.
