<p>Vice President Kamala Harris faced backlash Wednesday evening after announcing that the administration — in the wake of skyrocketing rates of anti-Semitic incidents and attacks worldwide following last month&#8217;s Islamic terrorist attack — is focused on combating Islamophobia.</p>
<p>Her remarks came after images of anti-Semitic demonstrations on college campuses nationwide, people tearing down photos of Israeli children that Hamas kidnapped, and people making threats against Jews have gone viral for weeks.</p>
<p>&#8220;Taking on hate is a national priority,&#8221; she declared in a post on X that included a video of the announcement. &#8220;Today, @POTUS and I are announcing the country’s first National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia. This action is the latest step forward in our work to combat a surge of hate in America.&#8221;</p>
<p>“For years, Muslims in America and those perceived to be Muslim have endured a disproportionate number of hate-fueled attacks,&#8221; she said in the video. &#8220;As a result of the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, we have seen an uptick in anti-Palestinian, anti-Arab, anti-Semitic, and Islamophobic incidents across America, including the brutal attack of a Palestinian-American woman, who is Muslim, and the killing of her 6-year-old son.”</p>
<p>Harris was widely mocked and criticized online over the announcement.</p>
<p>&#8220;On one hand, the administration is responding to the immediate physical danger of its Jewish citizenry with a task force to combat … Islamophobia,&#8221; wrote author Abigail Shrier. &#8220;On the other, it assigned the least competent member of the entire federal government to head the effort. Unclear which side should take greater offense.&#8221;</p>
<p>Professor Gad Saad posted: &#8220;According to the @FBI director, Jews make up 2.4% of the US population but are the targets of 60% of hate crimes. This is why it is apparently important to fight Islamophobia according to the White House.&#8221;</p>

<p>Former U.S. Senate candidate Adam Laxalt called attention to an anti-Semitic hate crime that happened in Las Vegas.</p>
<p>&#8220;Today, a wall in a large Jewish community in Las Vegas was tagged with &#8216;Death 2 Jews,'&#8221; he wrote. &#8220;This is just one example of many hateful acts of antisemitism we’ve seen across the country. Our VP should be prioritizing stopping the hate against the Jewish community right now.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Anti-semitism is at the highest level since NAZI Germany and the Biden admin decides to launch an anti-Islamophobia effort,&#8221; said Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI). &#8220;I have absolutely no idea how anyone who cares about the survival of Jewish people could vote for any member of the Democratic Party.&#8221;</p>
