ARUTZ SHEVA 7 — Ahead of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, Israel’s Ministry of Diaspora Affairs revealed a new and unique platform for realtime information and analysis of online anti-Semitism.

Minister Bennett said: “Sunlight is the best disinfectant. From today every anti-Semite online should know he is exposed, the hatred he spreads is being watched and he will be held responsible.
