(April 22, 2025 / Jihad Watch) The ADL not only conceals Islamic antisemitism; it demonizes and defames those who call attention to it. It has failed in its mission and joined those whom it professes to oppose.
“ADL quietly purged data on European Muslim antisemitism,” by Andrew Bostom and Morton A. Klein, JNS, April 18, 2025:
Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO and national director of the Anti-Defamation League, boycotted the Jerusalem International Conference on Combating Antisemitism in late March to protest the event’s inclusion of so-called “far-right European politicians.” Israeli Diaspora Minister Amichai Chikli countered that the “right-wing” European party members he invited were “allies” in combating antisemitism.
A month earlier, Chikli explained the invitations, saying, “antisemitism is a growing problem in Europe due to Muslim immigration. The European right-wing parties have a point because they realize the problem and are presenting a solution. They understand the challenge of radical Islam, and they are willing to take the necessary steps.”
The ADL has a 20-year record of determining “extreme antisemitism” in different places and among different groups, and for the last 10 years, it has released findings in its “Global 100: An Index of Antisemitism.” Countries are ranked based on how many antisemitic stereotypes out of a total of 11 statements people there agree with. Those who agree that six or more statements are “probably true” are considered by the ADL report to be “harboring” antisemitic views.
Over the years, the report has included results from religious groups, including Christians and Muslims in Western Europe (such as in 2004, 2015 and 2019, and 2023). Yet that data, which shows Western European Muslims harboring significantly more antisemitic views than others in Western Europe, is now missing from the ADL’s website.
After compiling the results of ADL survey reports from 2015 to 2023, we found a grossly disproportionate, two-to-four-fold excess prevalence of Jew-hatred among the Muslims in the United Kingdom, Belgium, France, Germany, Spain and Italy.
