More than 275 emerging Christian leaders from across the US gathered in Orlando, Florida last week for the “Christian Leaders Summit”. This is a joint initiative of the Combat Antisemitism Movement (CAM) and the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem-USA (ICEJ USA). <\/p>\n\n
The aim of the forum was to equip participants with the knowledge and tools to stand alongside Israel and combat the rise of anti-Semitism in their communities. EJ Kimball, Director of Christian Outreach and Engagement at CAM, said, “Anti-Semitism is not just a Jewish problem, and it doesn’t just attack Jews. It’s a societal scourge that destroys from within. That’s why it’s so important that you are all here to learn and, most importantly, to speak out.” <\/p>\n\n
In the US state of Wisconsin, the CAM helped to raise awareness among members of the House of Representatives for the fight against anti-Semitism, which has risen rapidly in the USA since October 7, 2023. Wisconsin wants to integrate the international definition of antisemitism into its law in order to be able to punish antisemitic actions more severely. <\/p>\n\n
In its worldwide weekly report, the CAM recorded 125 new antisemitic incidents, two thirds of which were attributable to actions by left-wing groups and almost all of the remaining third were divided equally between perpetrators from the Islamist and right-wing scenes (in just under 5% of cases, the attribution was unclear). The majority of the registered anti-Semitic incidents were directed against Israel as a Jewish state under the guise of “anti-Zionism”. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
