The scale of radicalization and Jew-hatred in America cannot be underestimated. It is systematized in education from kindergarten to university. It is normalized in our media and daily life.

Progressive politicians and academics are accelerating the establishment of anti-American policies that seek to destroy our democratic values ​​and replace them with failed Marxist-Islamist ideologies. “Death to America” ​​and “Death to the Jews” have been steadily chanted in the streets and on campuses by people carrying Hamas and ISIS flags.

The so-called intifada has gone global, and its effects are being felt on the streets and campuses of New Orleans. The Trump Administration has pledged to use the tools and resources necessary to coordinate a whole-of-government approach to this crisis.

In previous administrations, the government agency tasked with combating anti-Jewish hatred has monitored anti-Semitism and served as a special envoy to combat anti-Semitism. The special envoy holds the role of an ambassador, whose primary mission is to track anti-Semitism globally and represent the United States in addressing this issue internationally. However, envoys cannot be considered moral authorities if they cannot effectively manage extremism within their borders.

Given the magnitude of the problem and the fact that domestic anti-Semitism is inherently linked to organized radicalization, there is a need to expand the role of the special envoy to include tackling domestic Jew hatred and its causes. Either that or the administration would benefit from additional positions. An “anti-Semitic czar” coordinating the government’s response at home.

Modern anti-Semitism in America is a widespread anti-Americanism often labeled as “progressive” that incorporates elements of Marxism, embraces radical Islam, and promotes a narrative of “oppression” that justifies acts of violence. It comes from ideology. This radicalization is entrenched among some people in our media, academia, and government. It finds expression in diversity equity and inclusion principles, critical race theory, efforts to defund the police, and Occupy Campus efforts.

During the Biden-Harris administration, we justified the murder of an insurance executive in New York, the murder of a pedestrian in New Orleans, and advocated “resisting at all costs” the kidnapping of American hostages by Hamas. witnessed an alarming proliferation of ideologies.

President-elect Trump has demonstrated unwavering moral clarity in addressing Jewish hatred as part of a larger, more systemic problem, protecting the civil rights of Jewish Americans, restoring democracy, and making it an important part of his vision to make America great again. .

An “extended” envoy or anti-Semitic czar would coordinate federal law enforcement responses to anti-Jewish hatred and its root causes, ensure the employment of the National Guard as needed, and combat malign foreign influence. It would root out black money and assist in the prosecution of unregistered foreign agents. Coordinate investigations into shadowy groups that parrot terrorist propaganda and oversee civil rights investigations to ensure anti-Jewish hatred is corrected.

Since October 7, 2023, people have begun to wake up to the threat that anti-Jewish hatred poses not only to Jews and Israel, but also to the stability of the Western world.

Many of the tools used by the previous administration to combat anti-Black extremism can also be effectively used to combat Jewish hatred. Ensure the FBI opens field offices where it is needed most, commit resources to ensure enforcement of federal laws, and close national loopholes. This law allowed Jew haters and other bigots to escape legal repercussions for their actions.

Most importantly, it reveals the link between international law and domestic radicalization, particularly with regard to efforts to distort international law and delegitimize Israel's right to protect itself from terrorism. These acts legitimize domestic radicalization and serve as the motivation behind domestic anti-Semitic acts.

Since October 7, 2023, people have begun to wake up to the threat that anti-Jewish hatred poses not only to Jews and Israel, but also to the stability of the Western world. Calls for the genocide of Jews are part of a larger call for the destruction of Western democracy, and I have long believed that the fight against Jew hatred addresses issues that affect all minority communities. We have argued that it must be an important part of protecting civil rights for all people. American.

Americans voted because they believed Trump could accomplish this, and I have every reason to believe he can accomplish this. Like me, he understands that anti-Semitism is more than just an attack on Jews. It's an attack on all of us. Expanding the role of envoys or appointing an anti-Semitic emperor would have monumental implications.

Whichever option President-elect Trump chooses, treating Jew hatred as a domestic civil rights issue with national security implications will be essential to an effective approach.
