(Dec. 27, 2024 / JNS) People gathered at the Museum of Tolerance in Jerusalem on Wednesday evening to watch “Tragic Awakening,” a documentary that delves into the root causes of antisemitism in the post-Oct. 7 reality, and suggests a paradigm shift on how the oldest hatred can be turned into a source of strength toward Jewish identity and Western values.

In today’s crazy world, an armed Muslim terrorist taking Jewish worshipers hostage during a Shabbat service in a synagogue isn’t considered antisemitism. But that is the case, as US government authorities and various mainstream media outlets somehow questioned the intent of a terrorist who entered a Texas synagogue and took hostages this past Shabbat. On this week’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten breaks down the Texas attack and reminds Jewish communities all over the world to stage vigilant as hatred for the Jewish People runs wild, as it has for thousands of years.
