Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots, will air a "Stand Up to Jewish Hate" ad during the Super Bowl.
Produced by Kraft's Foundation to Combat Antisemitism, the 30-second ad will address the wave and eruption of antisemitic sentiment that followed Israel's invasion of Gaza in response to the horrific October 7 terrorist attack at the hands of Hamas.
"With the horrific rise in Jewish hate and all hate across our nation, we must stand up and take urgent action now," Kraft said in a statement on Wednesday.
"For the first time, FCAS will air an emotive ad during the Super Bowl, football's ultimate championship game, which brings people of all backgrounds together, to showcase examples of how people can #StandUptoJewishHate and inspire more people to join the fight against all hate," he continued.
According to the New York Post, Kraft launched the "Stand Up to Jewish Hate" ad campaign last year in response to rapper Kanye West's tirade against Jewish people.
Kraft, 82, has also committed $25 million to raise awareness of antisemitism, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The Massachusetts native has also donated millions of dollars to causes in Israel, including the funding of sports complexes and other philanthropic endeavors.
Advertisers pay a premium to run commercials during the Super Bowl, which is the most watched event on television.
Kraft matched a $100 million donation to his foundation in 2023 following the horrific terrorist attack on Israel, lamenting how many young people in America supported Hamas.
"We have so many young people organizing and supporting terrorist groups," Kraft said in December.

Ha. Then you’d like the ‘Merry Minuet’ from the Kingston Trio. One stanza:
Italians hate Yugoslavs
South Africans hate the Dutch
And I don’t like
Anybody very much

Why couldn’t he had made it “White” instead of “Jewish”? Jewish people are considered White.
If you're talking about Kraft the food company, different Kraft.
“We have so many young people organizing and supporting terrorist groups,” Kraft said in December.”
I’ll bet he’s got some on his football team.

This might be my only laugh for the day .....
“Why couldn’t he had made it “White” instead of “Jewish”?”
...can’t be too un woke.
I hate you for posting that.
I wonder if the ad will have a happy ending.
Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics
And the Catholics hate the Protestants
And the Hindus hate the Moslems
And everybody hates the Jews
-Tom Lehrer (National Brotherhood Week)
What makes me think the pro-Hamas pro-terrorist crowd will have protests at the bowl.
I wonder if the imagery in the ad will indict Trump supporters or “white supremacists”.
“Jewish hate” means hatred by Jews. If he had wanted to say “Hatred against Jews” he would have said so.
Look at the photo, 31 seconds in:

You should wear the hat with the moons and stars on it when you pretend to read minds.
Of course this time the SB will be indoors, so a blimp probably wouldn’t work.
Why did he call it antisemitism? Arabs are the perpetrators, and they are semites?
Just stop.
Of course he does, the NFL is really just a form of slavery, ask Colin Kaepernick.
