Rising Hate and Security Measures in the U.S.

Rising anti-Muslim and anti-Palestinian hate in the U.S. has led to a significant increase in complaints, with CAIR receiving 3,578 complaints in the past three months, a 178% increase from the previous year. The Anti-Defamation League also reported a 360% increase in U.S. antisemitic incidents compared to the prior year. The U.S. government issued security guidance for faith-based communities amid heightened antisemitism and Islamophobia following the Oct. 7 attack on Israel by Hamas and Israel's subsequent military retaliation in Gaza. President Joe Biden has condemned antisemitism and Islamophobia.
