Rising Threat: FBI Director Warns of Historic Levels of Antisemitism Targeting Jews

FBI Director Christopher Wray expressed grave concern over the rising levels of antisemitism in the U.S., emphasizing that the Jewish community is disproportionately targeted by various terrorist organizations. He highlighted the need for collective action to combat religious-based hate crimes, as currently, Jews represent only 2.4% of the population yet account for 60% of such incidents. Wray further noted that white supremacists and other far-right extremists contribute to the escalating threat.
