Could be leftists, could be jihadis. Either way, this is what it means to “globalize the Intifada.”
“Cars torched, ‘Death to the IDF’ graffitied in St. Louis; American IDF vet said target,” Times of Israel, August 6, 2025:
Several cars were set on fire and “Death to the IDF” graffiti was spray-painted in a residential neighborhood in the St. Louis area overnight Tuesday, according to local reports and the head of the Trump administration’s antisemitism task force.
Leo Terrell said the “horrific antisemitic attack,” in which three cars were torched, targeted an American citizen who served in the Israel Defense Forces and who had returned to his family home in Clayton.
“Soon after, he and his family were targeted,” Terrell wrote in a post on X.
Local Jewish organizations linked the attack to what they described as unbridled rhetoric against Jews and Israel.
There were no reports of injuries. Local media reported that a suspect had been taken into custody.
Antisemitic attacks have skyrocketed in the US and around the world since Hamas led a devastating invasion of Israel on October 7, 2023, that triggered the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip, where the IDF is battling against the Palestinian terror group and its allies.
The Jewish Federations of St. Louis said in a statement, “We condemn in the strongest terms the attack on members of our community last night. This is more than vandalism; it is a hateful act of intimidation and only the latest example of what happens when antisemitic and anti-Israel rhetoric are normalized.”
KMOV 4 News said that, in addition to “Death to the IDF,” further graffiti was spray-painted on Westmoreland Avenue, which it described as “a direct attack on an individual.” The outlet added that it blurred that “part of the threatening message because it’s targeted at a specific individual.”
Terrell said the graffiti “accused him of being a murderer.”…
Ex-AOC organizer urges followers to ‘attack’ school with Jewish students

“A former organizer for Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was arrested after she called on her social media followers to “attack” a public high school that is attended by Jewish students, the New York Post reported.
Iman Abdul, 27, posted the Google Maps location of the Leon M. Goldstein High School for the Sciences in Manhattan Beach on Thursday. She wrote alongside the picture: “If anyone needs a public school in NYC to attack for whatever reason … Lexus driving Israhell loving Zionisits all attend here.”
Abdul claimed without evidence that “all” of the Jewish students at the school have “gone on Birthright,” the program which sends young Jewish adults to Israel for 10 days to connect with their Jewish identity. High school students under the age of 18 are ineligible to go on Birthright trips as Abdul claimed they have done.
Abdul worked for the primary campaign of Rep. Cortez in 2018. She also worked for the primary campaign of New York State Senator Julia Salazar…
“Department of Education pre-k staffer Tova Plaut told the Post: “A map. A pin. A call to harm Jews, fellow New Yorkers, children, teachers. This isn’t just dangerous. It’s evil. Jew-hatred doesn’t stop with a threat. It escalates. We need immediate and unequivocal action.”
The StopAntisemitism movement reposted Abdul’s post and wrote: “NYC resident Iman Abdul takes to Instagram inviting people to attack a Jewish school. This incitement against Jews, specifically minor children, must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
Abdul removed the post after it caused controversy and claimed that she never called to attack the students, only the school. She was arrested on Friday, a day after her post.
New York City has seen a significant rise in antisemitic incidents and hate crimes since the October 7 massacre committed by the Hamas terrorist organization. In 2024, 55% of hate crimes were committed against Jews, up from 44% in 2023
In April, Deputy Inspector Gary Marcus, the commanding officer of the NYPD’s Hate Crimes Task Force, stated that hate crimes against Jews “jump off the page as the single largest category of hate, at an astounding 62% of the total” in early 2025. He added that “well over half of all hate crimes in New York City are perpetrated against Jews.”
