One X user tweeted, “Apparently cops were there and nothing was done. It’s fine for a person to have a knife with three schools in close proximity.”
The conflict between Israel and Gaza has claimed nearly 10,000 lives, thus there is increasing pressure on Israel to ease its limitations on Gaza. A discussion over whether kind of protests are legitimate during times of global upheaval has been triggered by the video of Basin, who has strong opinions on the subject.
The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas has led to a rise in antisemitic incidents that affect Jewish communities worldwide. Heidi Beirich, a co-founder of the Global Project Against Hate and Extremism, is aware of the pattern of hate crimes that spike during conflicts in the Middle East. The current wave of violence, according to prominent extremism specialist Brian Levin, is the largest assault on the Jewish community since the Holocaust.
