Defining Antisemitism: 2024 South Dakota Legislature House Bill 1076

In reviewing, investigating, or deciding whether an alleged violation of this chapter is antisemitic, the Division of Human Rights must consider the definition of antisemitism. For the purposes of this chapter, the term “antisemitism” has the same meaning as the working definition of antisemitism adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance on May 26, 2016, including the contemporary examples of antisemitism identified therein.

The working definition of antisemitism adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance on May 26, 2016:

  1. Making mendacious, dehumanizing, demonizing, or stereotypical allegations about Jews as such or the power of Jews as collective — such as, especially but not exclusively, the myth about a world Jewish conspiracy or of Jews controlling the media, economy, government or other societal institutions.
  2. Accusing Jews as a people of being responsible for real or imagined wrongdoing committed by a single Jewish person or group, or even for acts committed by non-Jews.
  3. Denying the fact, scope, mechanisms (e.g. gas chambers) or intentionality of the genocide of the Jewish people at the hands of National Socialist Germany and its supporters and accomplices during World War II (the Holocaust).
  4. Accusing the Jews as a people, or Israel as a state, of inventing or exaggerating the Holocaust.
  5. Accusing Jewish citizens of being more loyal to Israel, or to the alleged priorities of Jews worldwide, than to the interests of their own nations.
  6. Denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor.
  7. Applying double standards by requiring of it a behavior not expected or demanded of any other democratic nation.
  8. Using the symbols and images associated with classic antisemitism (e.g., claims of Jews killing Jesus or blood libel) to characterize Israel or Israelis.
  9. Drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.
  10. Holding Jews collectively responsible for actions of the state of Israel.

Ensuring the Security of God’s Chosen People

Noem proves she is pathetic, a lackey ‘protecting’ her masters who need no protection but rather will use it for continued aggression. Is she signaling obeisance to gain the VP slot or just looking for money? One thing about Gaza is the moral ripple effect into America and Europe is horrifying. Noem is but one example of many. ABN
