This Week’s Topline

How 10/7 Victims Are Taking Iran, Syria and N. Korea to Court

I called my mom at the kibbutz as I usually do when there’s a missile attack from Gaza. “But quite early on, we understood that this wasn’t like your normal missile attack. That something different was going on.” His mom heard gunshots, shouting in Arabic. When the terrorists barged into the house, “that was the last we heard from her.”

In this week’s
[link removed]
Fighting Hate from Home webinar, we heard from Nahar Neta about his mother Adrienne Neta, killed by Hamas terrorists on 10/7. She and scores of others like her are the reason why ADL and Crowell & Moring filed suit in U.S. Federal Court last week, representing over 125 plaintiffs, including U.S. citizens who were injured or killed as a result of the October 7 attack, and immediate family members of those injured or killed.

On a just released episode of the

podcast ‘Call Me Back with Dan Senor’, ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt shares stories of the American victims, why ADL filed the lawsuit and how ADL responded in the aftermath of the 10/7 attack. Hear the fascinating conversation about where this lawsuit can actually go and what it could achieve on behalf of American victims and their families.

2024 Supreme Court Review: Earlier this week, thousands of attendees, both in person and online, joined ADL and the National Constitution Center’s panel of renowned SCOTUS experts in discussing the court’s most recent term. Erwin Chemerinsky, Dean of Berkeley Law, noted in kicking off the discussion that “if I had a theme for this term, it’s a very divided Supreme Court.” Watch the recording for the panel’s insights into Court decisions on content moderation, reproductive rights, presidential immunity and more. Additionally, hear from journalist Dahlia Lithwick about conflict-related sexual violence on 10/7 and the law.

Campus Crisis Update

Join the fight against antisemitism and urge Congress to support the historic Countering Antisemitism Act (CAA). The CAA is a historic initiative to lock in the policies of the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism for the long haul. Now, there are two key Senators who play an important role in fast-tracking this urgent legislation: Senator Durbin, the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and Senate Minority Leader Senator McConnell. Your support is vital, so please speak out with ADL by sending them a note today.

@JGreenblattADL

The pernicious influence of the Islamic Republic of Iran is not new. They have surveilled Jewish communal orgs for years and continually seek to influence politics and policy in our country, but the fact that @ODNIgov felt the need to warn the public in such a clear and open manner is stunning.

@ADL

We applaud @Meta’s decision to expand its hate speech policy regarding those who use the term “Zionist” as a derogatory way to describe Jews or Israelis. These guidelines will help ensure the term is not used as an antisemitic stereotype, or in a manner that threatens or incites violence. ... Our recent research showed that 41% of Jews changed their online behavior to avoid being identified as Jewish out of fear of the hate & harassment they may experience.

We support our French partner @Le_CRIF in their call for a government committed to the fight against antisemitism, which cannot include either the far-left LFI party of Jean-Luc Melenchon or the far-right National Rally party of Marine Le Pen.

Defacing the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in the Boston Common, a memorial dedicated to American veterans with “Death to Amerikkka” and “End Zionism”, is an ill-conceived attempt to spread deeply #antisemitic, undemocratic and racist messages in our community. We agree with @MayorWu and @EdforBoston that division, hate, and violence have no place in our city.
