HOPE Framework
For Jews everywhere, the brutal massacre on October 7, 2023, shattered any illusion that such barbarism belonged to the past. The unthinkable happened: Jewish men, women, and children were slaughtered, raped, and kidnapped in a coordinated attack that echoed the darkest chapters of history. But the shock of that day was soon compounded by another horror—the global celebration of this atrocity, the open justification of Jewish bloodshed, and a tidal wave of misinformation designed to vilify Israel and its people.
Since then, we have witnessed a relentless war of narratives. The Jewish people’s indigenous connection to their homeland has been distorted as “colonialism.” Israel’s right to self-defense is slandered as “oppression.” Attempts at honest dialogue are met with censorship, intimidation, and cancelation. Young Jews are pressured to betray their heritage or risk social and professional exile. Many of us feel the frustration of seeing lies take root while lacking the tools to fight back effectively.
That’s why we created the Guide to H.O.P.E.—a powerful, fact-based resource for Jews and their allies to confront and dismantle the antisemitic rhetoric poisoning discourse worldwide. H.O.P.E. stands for four essential pillars:
-
(H) Holistic Understanding – From the roots of Zionism to today’s geopolitical realities, we expose the deeper forces shaping the conflict. Learn how ideological extremism, East-West power struggles, and manipulative media narratives distort the truth, and how social media and academia have become battlegrounds in this war.
-
(O) Opposing H.A.T.E. – Hate operates through (H)arm & Harassment, (A)massing Aid, (T)wisting the (N)arrative, and (E)xploitation. We reveal the tactics used to demonize Israel, from weaponizing “victimhood” to rewriting history through Wikipedia revisionism and hijacking social justice movements.
-
(P) Partnership – You are not alone in this fight. Discover the individuals and organizations—from grassroots activists to tech coalitions—who are working to expose the lies and defend truth.
-
(E) Education & Elevation – Through accessible explainers, Jewish values, real human stories, and solution-focused discussions, we shift the conversation from slander to solutions.
This is more than just a guide; it’s a call to action. Armed with knowledge and conviction, we can reclaim the truth, push back against the lies, and stand strong against those who seek to erase us.
With H.O.P.E., we move forward—not just to defend Israel, but to secure a future of truth, dignity, and peace. Let’s get to work.
