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.

Same here, so like you, I actually read it. :^)
Did you read the part that he was “lamenting” about how many kids support Hamas?
I think you might have misread this.
It’ll suck in the Jew-hating morons of the left, who will realize what it’s really about, then react violently as is their wont.
You’re not a reader, are ya?
There are black Jews. Some are converts or children of converts and some are Ethiopian Jews. My former downstairs neighbor was originally from Ethiopia and later emigrated to Israel. She then came to the U.S. and married a NYC fella.

“Remind self not to by Kraft products.”
Won’t matter, Kraft is way too big. The only satisfaction will be not watching the game, but then I wasn’t going to watch anyway, pro football has been a bore for years.
Agreed, that’s terrible.
Not only what gator said but, Robert Kraft has nothing to do with Kraft foods.
KraftHeinz is John Kerry’s wife’s company. That IMHO is the reason not to buy any of their products.
Robert Kraft owns paper mills and other things. Plus the New England Patriots.
“There are black Jews.”
Jewish can refer to race or religion. They are not necessarily the same.

He made most of his money on paper mills prior to buying the Patriots NFL franchise.
And anti male hate.
Teresa Kerry didn’t own Heinz when it was sold in 2015. She cashed out years before. She does run the Heinz Foundation as AFAIK and has long been a wacko environmentalist blaming cows for global warming. Every public school kid has been taught that in Pittsburgh thanks to her.
Yeah. I read the article because the title could go either way.
Great answer!
I used a version of that, while being interviewed for jury duty. They asked if I had hatred of any ethinic groups.
I answered “I don’t discriminate, I hate everybody equally”.
I was sent home.
Too bad the slogan can be read as Jewish haters must be stopped. I know Bob Kraft didn’t mean it that way.
Good for Robert Kraft. Nice to know the good guys are fighting back.
He should team up with Bill Ackman.
I’m White, Jewish and I guess I would be called Christian. Leftists hate me the most, and I’m proud of it.
