From Paris to Washington: Anti-Zionist sentiment spreads across the globe

Since the start of the Gaza war on October 7, 2023, following atrocities committed in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, Zionists have faced a surge in global hostility. As a result, Israeli settlers feel their security is increasingly undermined — even in countries that are considered allies of the regime.

In one of the latest anti-Zionist incidents in the heart of Europe, the offices of the Israeli occupation regime’s airline in Paris, France, came under attack.

According to reports, El Al — the Israeli airline — decided to vacate its Paris offices after slogans were spray-painted on their walls.

The airline stated: “We take the incident targeting our Paris offices seriously and are working to resolve it.”

As usual, Israeli officials labeled the attack as antisemitism, claiming that anti-Zionist positions in the West are behind such incidents.

They also blame human rights organizations for fueling hatred against Zionists, alleging that these groups publish “anti-Zionist” reports that increase hostility toward the regime and Israeli settlers.

Meanwhile, according to recently published reports by Israeli institutions, most Zionists say the growing hatred against them is influencing their decisions to travel outside the occupied territories.

The JNS news outlet reported that more than half of Zionist respondents say reports of rising hostility and attacks on settlers abroad have affected their travel plans.

Another media outlet, noting the surge in global resentment toward Zionists — and the fact that even the United States is no longer considered a “safe haven” for them — cited a recent Gallup poll showing that about 60% of American adults now oppose the Israeli army’s genocidal operations in Gaza.

International pressure on the Zionist regime is also mounting, as its European allies move to officially recognize the State of Palestine.

In this context, The Guardian wrote: “Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon of war, and its prevention of humanitarian aid from reaching Gaza, is morally indefensible and has rightly outraged the world. The partial lifting of the blockade provides only a fraction of what is needed and, by Netanyahu’s own admission, represents the bare minimum he can do to maintain U.S. political support. This is a fact.”

In late July 2025, under mounting domestic and international pressure, Belgium arrested two Israeli soldiers accused of committing war crimes in Gaza, following complaints filed by two human rights groups.

This shows that hatred toward Zionists has become a serious threat to the occupiers in both the United States and Europe.
