When Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed could not say Iran is a bigger threat to the U.S. than Israel, it was a warning of elections in a post-Oct. 7 world, Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) president Morton Klein says. American and even Israeli leaders are failing to show strength against hate as anti-Zionist voices gain power, Klein told Fox News Digital in a Monday interview. " Ilhan Omar is one of the most vicious Jew haters in America," Klein said, speaking on behalf of himself and not as the leader of the ZOA. "And it is very painful to me that the leaders of the Democratic Party have not continuously and vigorously condemned her" and other antisemitic political leaders, including Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., El-Sayed and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. They are not merely "pro-Palestinian" voices, Klein says: "They're anti-Israel voices. They don't really give a damn about the Palestinians either. They just hate Jews in the Jewish state. That's my opinion."

"Viciously antisemitic members of Congress have not been condemned in any significant way by the Democratic Party," he continued. "So it's disappointing to me as an American that we don't condemn people who are filled with hate and not filled with what's best for America." Anti-Israel rhetoric has moved from the political fringe into elected office, he said, warning that Democrats have not forcefully condemned members of their own party who he says traffic in antisemitism.
