DID YOU NOTICE THE 'MASSIVE SURGE' IN ANTISEMITISM in America in 2017? An eighty-six percent rise in the first three months is the figure that has been disseminated by the influential Anti-Defamation League (ADL). Many other Jewish organizations and writers joined in the chorus, calling for “something to be done” to stem this alarming, rising tide. They called for special protections to be afforded to Jews in their schools, neighborhoods and community centers, and new laws to be passed against hate speech, and even against antisemitism itself. Possibly American's constitutional First Amendment right of free speech should be amended to prohibit certain kinds of speech.

All this has been thrown about, and it continues to be featured by the media every time another Jewish organization or Jewish writer decides to bring it up again. Now 6 months into 2017, there has been no diminishment in the furor or the statistical claims, even though all of the increase has been discovered to have been hoaxes carried out by two unrelated individuals, one a Jew and one an African-American, who had no anti-Jewish feelings at all.
