It's back. Not the left's usual anti-Israel vitriol — but a creeping, winking strain of anti-Jewish hostility rising inside corners of the American "right." This chill is often dressed up as "anti-globalism" or "just asking questions" -- about Israel. There is nothing new about recycling century-old tropes, flirting with blood libels, or mainstreaming a Holocaust denier because he brings clicks. The American right — at its best — defends the Judeo-Christian foundations of the West, honors facts, allies, and moral clarity. This heritage means standing with Israel and against antisemites, even when they pretend to be on the side of all that is "good."
Start with Candace Owens. Sometime during 2023–2024 she crossed line after line — defending Kanye West ("Ye") after his antisemitic rants, insinuating medieval slanders, and taunting Jews who objected — until the Daily Wire website publicly ended its relationship with her in March 2024. It was not about "free speech," it was about a pattern of tolerating intolerance that would not have been accepted if it had been aimed at any ethnic group other than Jews.
