Chikli spoke about the Diaspora Ministry’s launch of a new tool two months ago, which aims to combat antisemitism. The AI-based system allows the ministry to monitor every social network and provide key details that prevent terror attacks against Jewish communities, as well as give indications of the level of antisemitism in various countries.
Speaking on allegations by some that the Diaspora Ministry politicizes antisemitism, Chikli said this was “not true, it’s not accurate.” Critics of the ministry have argued that the ministry overly focuses on left-wing, and not right-wing, Jew-hatred. He noted that the ministry does a lot of work monitoring anti-Israel influencers, such as Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson, who are both right-wing commentators.
