Evening Edition: Are Politics Inspiring Anti-Semitic Violence?

Examples of anti-Semitic and terror attacks towards Jews around the world have surged in recent years, especially since October 7th and the ensuing war. This weekend, a father and son duo in Australia killed fifteen people and injured more than two dozen others at a Hanukah celebration, which authorities are now formally describing as an ISIS-inspired terrorist attack. Following the attack, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he warned Australia that the country’s policies began festering an anti-Semitic tone after calling for the formation of a Palestinian State.

FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Rabbi Yaakov Menken, the Executive Vice President of the Coalition for Jewish Values, who says these anti-Semitic attacks should not just be viewed as hatred towards Jewish lives, but hatred towards all life.
