October 7 Massacre
Worldwide Antisemitism

Since the Hamas massacre in Israel on Oct. 7, U.S. and world wide antisemitic incidents have reached unprecedented proportions. ACF continues to work with world leaders and international agencies to combat the normalization of antisemitism, promoting the protection of Jewish communities, schools, organizations, houses of worship and students on college campuses. 

Members of Austrian Parliamentary Delegation join Rabbi Arthur Schneier standing in solidarity in front of hostage victims of the October 7th Massacre and seeking their release and a mutually agreed upon ceasefire of the Israeli-Hamas war and relief for the people of Gaza.

Prior to her role moderating at the Council of Foreign Relations, Sheryl Sandberg, Rabbi Arthur Schneier and Karen Dresbach discuss the importance of remaining vigilant to ensure justice for victims, survivors and hostages of October 7. They shared deep concern over the indifference and denial of clear documentation of Hamas’ rape, murder and dehumanization of women and children in Israel on October 7 and the politicizaton of the conflict to promote Antisemitism on college campuses across the United States through encampments and intimidation.
H.E. Wolfgang Sobotka, President of the National Council of Austria visited Rabbi Arthur Schneier and discussed Austria’s commitment to combatting Antisemitism and the ongoing continuation of mandatory holocaust education programs throughout Austria’s school system.
