Antisemitism Definition?

​← Can Social Cohesion be Legislated

​The Main Debate

The core tension between the two documents lies in where the line is drawn between hate speech and legitimate political discourse.

IHRA Supporters: Argue that the IHRA is the global gold standard and that the JDA dilutes the definition of antisemitism by attempting to shield certain anti-Zionist and anti-Israel rhetoric.

JDA Supporters: Argue that the IHRA's broad phrasing has been "weaponized" to silence legitimate criticisms of Israel and stifle academic and political freedom.

Question:

Which definition of antisemitism should be globally adopted?

Option 1: IHRA

Option 2: JDA
