Discrimination and reported attacks against Muslims and Palestinians reached a record high in the United States in 2023, driven by rising Islamophobia and prejudice, data from an advocacy group showed.
Complaints totaled 8,061 in 2023, an increase of 56% from the previous year, and the highest since the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) began its records nearly 30 years ago.
Likewise, human rights defenders have reported a global rise in Islamophobia, anti-Palestinian prejudice and anti-Semitism since the outbreak of the conflict between Israel and Hamas.
According to the CAIR report, about 3,600 of these incidents occurred between October and December, indicating that 2023 witnessed a “resurgence of hatred against Muslims” after the first ever recorded annual decrease in complaints in 2022.
In the first nine months of 2023, such incidents averaged about 500 incidents per month before jumping to nearly 1,200 incidents per month in the last quarter.
The report said, “The main reason behind this wave of escalating Islamophobia was the escalation of violence in Israel and Palestine in October 2023,” indicating that the most numerous complaints in 2023 were in the categories of immigration and asylum, employment discrimination, hate crimes, and discrimination in education.
CAIR said it compiled the numbers by reviewing public statements and videos as well as reports from public calls, emails and an online complaints system, and contacted people whose incidents were reported in the media.
Shocking!

The leader of the Afghan Taliban issues a statement in 7 languages after an audio recording and flogging and stoning of women and men
On Saturday, in a statement, the leader of the Afghan Taliban movement, Hibatullah Akhundzada, called on officials in the movement to put aside their differences and devote themselves to serving their country, as Eid al-Fitr approaches.
It seems that public opposition within the Taliban is unlikely, but some leaders in the movement have shown dissatisfaction with decisions taken by the leadership, especially the ban on female education.
Akhundzada, a reclusive leader who rarely leaves the Taliban stronghold in Kandahar province in the south of the country, and never appears in public, has played a major role in imposing restrictions on women and girls, sparking international outrage and isolating the Taliban on the global stage.
Akhundzada's message was distributed in seven languages, including Uzbek and Turkmen, and is an attempt by the Taliban to court the rich Central Asian countries for investment, and to give legitimacy to the country's rule.
