Russian authorities have failed to respond adequately to a series of antisemitic acts, some of them violent, in several republics in Russia’s North Caucasus region in late October, 2023 that left the region’s small Jewish population in fear, Human Rights Watch said today.

    There is an increase in antisemitism and islamophobia across many countries ATM. It is the ignorant response of people believing all jews are Israeli and all Muslims support Hamas. This is what happens when a small section of a religion becomes extremist. Israel knew this would be the reaction to what they are doing, as did Hamas when they instigated such a barbaric attack. Countries that have a Muslim bias will gun for retribution against Jews and vice versa.

    We have two religions that are intent on murdering each other. Worse is that there are countries on the outside supporting this fiasco on both sides.

    So much for “never again”.
