StopAntisemitism refuses to stay silent in the face of the alarming hatred directed at the Jewish people. We are proud to announce our ongoing success in holding accountable who participate in such behavior, ensuring they face the appropriate consequences.
Richard Waygood – Pharma
StopAntisemitism was made aware of a troubling social media post shared by Richard Waygood donning a Nazi armband while vacationing in Las Vegas. Following StopAntisemitism’s report of Wagood’s connection with Vertex Pharmaceuticals, the company swiftly denounced his actions and dissolved all relations with Mr. Waygood.
Ariana Del Rosario – Tech
StopAntisemitism uncovered antisemitic posts by a member of Apple’s Data Operations team, Ariana Del Rosario in which she compared the State of Israel with Nazi Germany. In one photo she posed with a sign that read, “Zionism is Nazism.”
When these allegations were brought to light, Apple quickly parted ways with Del Rosario.
Abeer N. AbouYabis – Physician
Emory Winship Cancer Institute’s Physician, Abeer AbouYabis, chose to endorse Hamas proclaiming, “They got walls we got gliders glory to all resistance fighters.” StopAntisemitism immediately took to X to share AbouYabis’s horrific response. In response, Emory Winship Cancer Institute immediately placed her on leave pending an investigation. The investigation concluded Dr. AbouYabis actions were antisemitic and violated multiple codes of conduct. As a result, she was fired.
Amaury Letort – Consulting
StopAntisemitism was alarmed to discover a social media interaction between Punchcut’s Senior Project Manager, Amaury Letort, and a Jewish individual. In the exchange, Letort stated, “I hope your ancestors died in ovens and it will be the same for you and your family soon during a 2nd Shoah (fingers crossed). When that happens, I’m going to sh*t on Israeli flags while dancing.” StopAntisemitism reported these comments to Punchcut, resulting in the company severing all ties with Letort.
Elom Tettey-Tamaklo – Student
StopAntisemitism obtained footage revealing a troubling incident at Harvard during a pro-Hamas event. Several students could be seen surrounding a Jewish peer and harassing them by impeding the student’s ability to walk freely. Through a meticulous investigation, StopAntisemitism identified one of the individuals involved as Elom Tettey-Tamklo, a second-year divinity student. In response to this disturbing revelation, Harvard promptly evicted Tettey-Tamklo from campus housing and relieved him of proctor duties.
StopAntisemitism reaffirms its unwavering solidarity with the Jewish people and nation. If you have an antisemitic incident to report, please do so here.
Am Israel Chai.
