White House announces strategy to tackle Islamophobia but not anti-Semitism
Newsweek opinion editor Batya Ungar-Sargon has slammed The White House for addressing the “wrong problem” after a national strategy was announced to tackle Islamophobia – but not anti-Semitism.
Her remarks come amid the rise of anti-Semitism in the United States after the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas launched attacks on Israel on October 7.
“Hating Muslims, Islamophobia is horrible – the problem is I’m not sure it really exists in the numbers that such attention would suggest,” Mr Ungar-Sargon told Sky News host James Morrow.
“What we’re seeing a lot of is anti-Semitic vandalism, anti-Semitic chanting, anti-Semitic attacks against American-Jewish students on college campuses.”
She said she doesn’t believe many Jewish people will hold the move against the Biden administration as many feel the President has shown a lot of support for Israel.
