NYC a Hotbed of Antisemitism
Anti-Jewish Hate at an All Time High in the Big Apple
New York City has a proud Jewish history dating back to at least 1654. The first Jewish Synagogue was established in 1664, and more than 3 million Jews live in the greater New York City area. Put simply, New York City has the largest concentration of Jews in the world outside of Israel.
But that may change now that antisemitism is on the rise in New York, starting with the madman mayoral candidate, Zohran Mamdani.
Christians in Defense of Israel is working to counter the hate with truth. That’s why we are making two of our most useful works available with all NEW recurring monthly donations of 10 dollars or more.
Sign up now to get YOUR copies of Why Islamists Hate Israel, as well as our groundbreaking booklet, Big Lies: Answers to the TOP 10 slanders, smears and libels against ISRAEL.
An appalling 30% of New York voters are MORE likely to vote for Mamdani because he refuses to condemn “globalize the intifada” — which is nothing more than a murderous cry for worldwide jihad against Jews.
High-profile anti-Israel activist and Mamdani booster Mohammed El-Kurd celebrated his candidate’s primary win with this searing warning on X: “Consider the intifada globalized.”
An antisemitic bonfire is raging in New York City and the volatile fuel feeding the bonfire in New York and elsewhere is a collection of ugly lies — many of them mouthed by Mamdani.
He and other enemies of Israel smear the Jewish state with the canards that it commits genocide, stole land from the Palestinians, that it is a racist apartheid state, a brutal occupying power, and more.
But with your help, Christians in Defense of Israel is telling the amazing, uplifting truth about Israel every day across America and on Capitol Hill, and we are equipping YOU to do the same!
You and I must act now and do everything in our power to douse the flames of antisemitism. Your generosity will help make it happen.
Your much-needed recurring monthly gift of 10 dollars or more builds support for the Jewish state through online advocacy, our witness in Washington, Covenant Journey trips to Israel for young Christian leaders, and CIDI publications like Big Lies: Answers to the TOP 10 slanders, smears and libels against Israel.
Big Lies makes a strong, fact-filled case for the Jewish state by vigorously debunking tired, ugly, and rancid lies that darken minds and blacken hearts with seething hostility for Israel.
And we will also include our 40-page booklet, Why Islamists Hate Israel. This fascinating survey of modern Israel’s founding reviews the tragic story of Arab rejection of Israel. And it exposes the Jew-hatred embedded in Islam — the one factor that, more than anything else, makes true and lasting Middle East peace all but impossible to achieve.
Gain perspective and valuable insight into the Arab-Israeli conflict when you read Why Islamists Hate Israel.
Thank you for standing with Israel and the Jewish people now!
