The Focus Project

The Focus Project is a consensus initiative of major American Jewish organizations that provides crucial news, talking points and background content about issues affecting Israel and the Jewish people, including antisemitism, anti-Zionism and relevant events in the Middle East.

From kibbutzim in Israel’s south to synagogues worldwide, Jews are exhaling—grateful and determined that no life and no memory be left behind.
They remain trapped in limbo as the world debates peace, struggling to survive while holding onto the memories of the lives awaiting them.
The proposal to end the war and jump-start regional peace promotes security, economic development and even amnesty for terrorists who choose coexistence.
Condemning “their” violence while excusing “ours” undermines credibility and destroys societal norms.
Every country deserves normalcy and security without the fear of terror; no nation should live under constant threat.
Anti-Israel activists take a lesson from the Nazis, repeating monstrous falsehoods often enough so that people would eventually believe them.
In unions, academic institutions, libraries and even city parks, Jews are pressured to denounce Israel.
Academic institutions must act because it is right, not because investigators are watching. Doing nothing is no longer an option.
The FBI’s most recent report showed that Jews were targeted in 69% of religiously motivated hate crimes and 16% of all hate crimes, despite being just 2% of the U.S. population.
