Antisemitism Watch - September 5, 2026, 05 AM Eastern
On Antisemitism Watch, we begin with Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow's refusal to attend a debate on antisemitism and public safety, as the city reports 80% of hate crimes are anti-Jewish. We examine the antisemitic backlash targeting Jewish scholar Amy-Jill Levine following her election as president of the Catholic Biblical Association. Plus, Jane Fonda defends actor Mark Ruffalo against antisemitism charges in his opposition to a media merger, and rabbis warn Europe is failing to protect its Jewish population from online hate.
