The Anti-Defamation League's annual audit reported 1,879 anti-Semitic incidents against Jews and Jewish institutions across the U.S. in 2018.

Anti-Semitic incidents have remained at near-historic levels across America in recent years, according to the Anti-Defamation League’s annual audit, while assaults against Jews more than doubled in 2018.

“We’ve worked hard to push back against anti-Semitism, and succeeded in improving hate crime laws, and yet we continue to experience an alarmingly high number of anti-Semitic acts,” Jonathan Greenblatt, ADL CEO and National Director, said in a statement. “We unfortunately saw this trend continue into 2019 with the tragic shooting at the Chabad synagogue in Poway.”

The deadliest attack on the Jewish community in U.S. history occurred last October, when an armed gunman entered Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life Congregation Synagogue and opened fire, killing 11 people and injuring seven others. Just six months after the devastating Pennsylvania shooting, on April 27, 2019, another gunman opened fire at Chabad Synagogue near San Diego, California, killing one and injuring three others.

Anti-Semitic assaults tripled in 2018, says a new Anti-Defamation League reportTwice in the last six months, men bent on destroying Jews have entered synagogues and fired their guns. A new report from the Anti-Defamation League suggests that those killings are part of a wider increase in physical violence against Jewish people. I blame the anti-semitism of TheDemocrats. “While the nation was focused on a hoaxed hate crime, Brooklyn's Jews have been repeatedly and actually attacked. Are we not discussing it because most of the perpetrators are black?”
