Antisemitism is on the rise.
Antisemitic rhetoric promoting stereotypes and conspiracy theories against Jews is going viral online.
And in the real world, experts say antisemitic violence is at the highest level in 30 years.
This is all happening at the same time as more and more young Americans are shifting their views on the relationship between the US and Israel over the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East.
Hello and welcome to USA Today's The Excerpt.
Today is Friday, July 17th, 2026.
My name is Will Carlos and I'm a national correspondent here at USA Today.
I cover extremism and emerging issues and I'm the host of Extremely Normal, a series where I examine how extremist movements are gradually becoming mainstream in America.
Our latest episode is out now, and it takes a look at the recent surge of antisemitism amid the ongoing conflicts between Israel and Gaza, Iran and Lebanon.
We'll include a link to the full video in the show notes, and we've included a trailer for you at the end of this conversation.
To keep this conversation going on this important and complicated topic, I wanted to talk to a couple of experts on the subject of hatred against Jews and the geopolitics of the Middle East.
So we sought out two thinkers in this space.
First, we have Judge Roy Altman.
Altman's a federal judge in southern Florida.
Altman, who's Jewish, was appointed by President Donald Trump.
He recently published a book titled Israel on Trial, examining the history, the evidence, and the law.
Judge Altman, thanks for joining me.
Young people on both the left and the right are deeply questioning America's financial and military relationship with Israel.
What's wrong with that?
I mean, isn't that sort of scrutiny healthy for a functioning democracy?
