British rapper Bob Vylan’s “Death to the IDF” chant at the Glastonbury Festival in England sparked global controversy this week and raised new concerns about the growing normalization of antisemitic incitement to violence.
In another manifestation of this same disturbing trend, New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani once again refused on Sunday to denounce the “Globalize the Intifada” hate slogan.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration warned Harvard University that it was in “violent violation” of the U.S. Civil Rights Act and would lose all federal funding if “adequate changes” to address on-campus antisemitism were not instituted immediately.
Also this week, in remarks at CAM’s State Leadership Summit on Antisemitism and Support for Israel, Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds announced the signing of Executive Order 13. The measure condemns antisemitism and directs the Iowa Board of Regents to fully cooperate with the U.S. Department of Education to protect Jewish university students.
Antisemitic Hate Speech Incidents Around World
The ARC documented several additional incidents of antisemitic hate speech this week - invariably the most common manifestation of Jew-hatred worldwide. Incidents included:
Argentina: In Buenos Aires, fans of Club Atlético All Boys paraded a coffin draped in an Israeli flag, ahead of a match against Club Atlético Atlanta.
France: Anti-Israel demonstrators in in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés shouted "dirty Jew.”
Italy: Posters reading "Israeli not welcome" were plastered across Milan.
Ireland: A politician was targeted by mail with neo-Nazi propaganda, including Holocaust denial and images of Hitler.
CAM wishes all Americans a happy Fourth of July!

I hope you’re enjoying the summer. Tomorrow, we will be celebrating our nation’s birthday…and next year will be the 250th!
Since you support us, I bet you have some thoughts on American history and how it’s taught in schools or portrayed in the media.
You’ve probably also noticed the spread of anti-American ideas into every area of American life.
One of the flags flown during our war for independence—the Betsy Ross flag—has come under attack in recent years.
Newsweek asked, “Is the Betsy Ross Flag Racist?”
Sadly, too many people answered yes.
Then, in 2021, ABC News included the Betsy Ross flag as one of the “symbols of hate and far-right extremism.” These episodes illustrate the problem of far-Left activists in education. These activists want to rewrite our nation’s history—including the history of the American Revolution.
Mr. Coglianese, that’s why, as we prepare our country’s 250th anniversary of our independence, I hope you will stand your ground in defense of our liberties…
…and take a short survey to share YOUR thoughts about teaching American history. Especially the American Revolution and the Declaration of Independence.
I hope I can count on you. If the far-Left means to continue their war on American history, then let us continue our fight on the battlefield of education.
Please share your thoughts with us today. And enjoy the rest of your day!
Far left political commentator Elie Mystal thinks “we are the bad guys” and is calling for other nations to impose sanctions on the United States.
Mystal delivered his rant during a discussion with fellow leftist and former MSNBC host Joy Reid, declaring the U.S. “needs to be sanctioned” after President Donald Trump’s decision to bomb Iran’s nuclear sites last month.
“Joy, I’ve argued — and I don’t say this lightly — but our country needs to be sanctioned. We are the bad guys on the world stage. We are a menace to not only free people everywhere, but we are a menace to peaceful people everywhere at this point,” the justice correspondent at The Nation said on The Joy Reid Show.

“And I’m not even gonna say that we’ve only been a menace for the past three or four months, right?” he continued, painting the U.S. as a villain on the world stage.
“Like, when does the international community decide that enough is enough? I know we’re rich. I know we’ve got a lot of money. I know that people want to buy things from our country because we’re rich, or want to sell things to our country because we are rich. But at some point, the international community has to stand up to us because we are a bad guy on the world stage, right?” the far-left commentator said.
“And so we should be sanctioned. We should be sectioned and rebuked,” Mystal emphasized.
Reid, who often provided the screeching leftist a platform on her canceled MSNBC show, did not disagree, offering no pushback to his claims. Reid previously gave her nod of approval to Mystal’s attack on Trump supporters as “despicable” people.
“I mean, everything he [Trump] does is despicable,” Mystal said last year on “The ReidOut” just before Trump’s election victory.
“The reason why it doesn’t end his career is because his supporters are just as despicable,” he added, to which Reid replied, “Yeah, and they also — he hates the people they hate.”
Mystal’s latest diatribe against Trump and America was met with heated criticism on social media.
