The ADL is a joke of an organization, to them anti-Zionism is antisemitism. I don’t doubt for a second that antisemitism is on the rise, but I also don’t doubt it’s wrongly being used to silence critics of Israel and those who reject Zionism.

Speaking of which…
Israel accuses UN chief of justifying terrorism for saying Hamas attack ‘didn’t happen in a vacuum’
The article gives no specific acts of antisemitism but provides clear acts of anti-Muslim hate crimes.
They did include a citation link with this example
State authorities and the FBI were investigating the threats, including one that said, “If you see a Jewish ‘person’ on campus follow them home and slit their throats.”
Which is obviously genuinely bad. The rest just seemed like anti Israel stuff, which isn’t “antisemitism” as much as “being a decent human being.” Not criticising Israel at all would be incredibly suspicious at this point.
