Antisemitism Watch - September 5, 2026, 05 PM Eastern

On Antisemitism Watch, we lead with grave news from France, where three men have been arrested for allegedly planning an antisemitic attack and intending to join the Islamic State. In policy news, the US Department of Health and Human Services has issued new guidance, warning medical institutions they will be sanctioned for allowing anti-Jewish discrimination. We also examine the rising antisemitism faced by Jewish politicians from the far-left, as reported by the New York Times and other outlets, creating a precarious new reality for elected officials.Sources:- ground.news: https://ground.news/article/three-men-suspected-of-planning-a-departure-to-isis-and-an-anti-semitic-attack-under-investigation_a19e63- jpost.com: https://www.jpost.com/diaspora/antisemitism/article-907638- telegraph.co.uk: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/09/05/non-jewish-woman-anti-semitic-abuse-exeter-students/- jpost.com: https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-907469- nny360.com: https://www.nny360.com/opinion/gary-franks-democratic-leaders-are-failing-the-antisemitic-test/article_33cd2483-823c-5e5f-91ff-1a2fe8b6afe5.html- reddit.com: https://www.reddit.com/r/IsraelCrimes/comments/1w7xk7j/its_illegal_under_the_ihra_definition_of/- algemeiner.com: https://www.algemeiner.com/2026/09/04/hhs-issues-new-guidance-antisemitism-health-care/- worldisraelnews.com: https://worldisraelnews.com/european-rabbis-unveil-seven-point-plan-to-confront-infrastructure-of-hatred-amid-rising-antisemitic-violence/- latimes.com: https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2026-09-05/islamophobia-antisemitism-rhetoric-jewish-american-summit- facebook.com: https://www.facebook.com/StandWithUs/posts/did-you-know-standwithus-has-an-antisemitism-task-force-in-the-san-diego-areayou/1602196438615322/Music Attribution:Intro: Intro: Music by https://pixabay.com/users/dariocoiro-54756271/ Dario Coiro from PixabayOutro: Outro: Music by https://pixabay.com/users/muzaproduction-24990238/ Aleksandr Karabanov from Pixabay
