Antisemitism on X Fuels France Unrest

An analysis of social media activity on X/Twitter reveals a surge in antisemitic posts blaming Jewish people and Israel for recent unrest in France. The Combat Antisemitism Movement tracked over 1,300 posts containing conspiracy theories and calls for violence, spread by influential accounts and reaching millions. Meanwhile, in the West Bank, the IDF is intensifying efforts to combat rising nationalist violence, with security officials noting the weekly evacuation of illegal outposts and criticizing courts for leniency that allows repeat offenses. In Israeli domestic politics, online prediction markets indicate a shift, with traders favoring Gadi Eisenkot as the next prime minister over Benjamin Netanyahu ahead of the October 27 election.
