George Floyd's Effect: Since the violent protest broke out in the US following a video that shows a black citizen named George Floyd being choked to death by police, it has often been talked about as a phenomenon of a racist outbreak as part of the protest effect that has stirred spirits in the country.

Dozens of content generated by the organization's activists in the past two weeks, since the outbreak of protests, have since been circulated by anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli entities, who are taking advantage of protests to spread hate messages against the Jewish people and the State of Israel.   

Tomer Aldubi, Founder and CEO: "Like allegations against the Jewish people around the spread of the Corona epidemic, even now anti-Semites are cynically exploiting the US struggle and spreading a new and modern bloodline. Unfortunately, instead of spreading lies and hatred, they are not taking their time to join For demonstrations and lifting a sign against racism. "  

Carlos Bihio, Content Monitoring Director: "The anti-Semitic publications we found on the network were circulated by different users on different social networks and geographies - but all of them spread three key messages: One, the Israel Terrorist Defense Force Collaborates with US Police To oppress the American people, to terrorize them and to gas the protesters by means of "Jewish aircraft".

The second, disseminating images of IDF soldiers trampling on Palestinians alongside the caption "I can't breathe" or a caption like "Palestinians are used to it." And the third, the conspiracy theory that Jews are trying to destroy America by manipulating the American people in order to lead a civil war, With the caption in the background "America is under attack by dirty Jews".  

"The violent murder event is a wake-up call for any minority and synonymous group to continue to fight against anti-Semitism, racism and discrimination - Jews and non-Jews. Hopefully, the African-American community, including all people who suffer discrimination and racism, will soon receive the equality and justice they deserve."  

The Movement to Combat Anti-Semitism on the Web is an Israeli nonprofit that was established to remove anti-Semitism from the online space. The movement employs dozens of activists across the country, half of them students, who regularly monitor anti-Semitism daily.
