California Governor Gavin Newsom has endorsed the lie that Israel is an "apartheid" state, a form of antisemitism. This statement was made at an event promoting his new book and has led to attacks on Jews and Jewish institutions. The lie is a blatant comparison to apartheid South Africa, where there is no segregation between Jews and Arabs. Newsom also suggested that he might end US military support for Israel as Iranian missiles flew through Israeli skies. The frontrunner for the Democratic Party's next presidential nomination, however, he has embraced the far left's anti-Israel extremism.
