Accuracy in Media (AIM), a conservative media watchdog group, has launched a new campaign aimed at exposing student activists involved in violent, antisemitic protests at the University of Washington (UW). The initiative includes a newly launched website, uwhatesjews.com, which names individuals allegedly involved in organizing demonstrations that resulted in over $1 million in property damage and the occupation of a university building.
Over two dozen students were arrested following the protests, but many have yet to face charges. AIM’s new site identifies the protest leaders and provides background on their activities, including the dissemination of pro-Hamas propaganda and the creation of what AIM calls “a hostile and unsafe environment for Jewish students.”
“It’s not that they hate the Jews per se, they hate the West. They chant ‘death to America’ just as much as they chant ‘death to Israel.’”@adamguillette & @AccuracyInMedia launch new campaign to expose radical activists involved in violent, antisemitic protests at @UW pic.twitter.com/YwhkPWkpPB

The campaign also features a digital action alert system, allowing concerned citizens to directly email UW trustees and prosecuting attorneys. AIM is urging the university and law enforcement to not only pursue charges against the arrested students but also expel those found responsible.
“Over the last two years, radicals have terrorized the UW campus and Jewish students at the university repeatedly,” said AIM President Adam Guillette in a press release. “Now that some of the worst offenders have been arrested, the prosecuting attorneys and the university have an opportunity to take real action, condemn this violent behavior, and stand up for Jewish students once and for all. If they decline to do so, they, too, will be complicit in the antisemitic violence that has plagued the university since 2023.”
Antisemitic Symbols and Violence
The protests, which intensified following the October 7 Hamas attacks in Israel, featured graphic materials glorifying terrorism. One flyer circulated by a pro-Hamas student group depicted a paraglider—referencing the Hamas militants who entered Israel by air during the attacks.
Jewish students at UW have repeatedly expressed concerns for their safety, claiming the administration has not taken sufficient steps to address the growing hostility on campus.
“Digital Tactics” and Public Accountability
In an appearance on The Ari Hoffman Show on Talk Radio 570 KVI, Guillette explained AIM’s broader strategy for confronting what he calls “anti-American, antisemitic radicals.” AIM has been known for deploying mobile billboards during high-profile campus events like commencement, spotlighting protest leaders. But now, the organization is focusing more heavily on digital outreach.
“We buy your domain name… and set up a page explaining what you’ve done,” Guillette said. “We use ads targeting your LinkedIn contacts, your Facebook friends—so when you show up for Thanksgiving, your grandma has been delivered banner ads explaining what happened on campus last semester.”
The group’s goal is to ensure that students involved in disruptive protests are held accountable both publicly and institutionally. Guillette emphasized that the campaign isn’t just about fighting antisemitism but also about confronting broader anti-Western ideologies.
“It’s not that they hate the Jews per se, they hate the West,” he said. “They chant ‘death to America’ just as much as they chant ‘death to Israel.’”
Broader Campus Pushback
AIM’s efforts extend beyond UW. Guillette cited recent action at the Virginia Military Institute (VMI), where AIM launched a campaign against a professor with ties to Columbia University’s radical campus protests. Following a flood of emails and campus visits, VMI’s president was removed, and the targeted professor’s future there appears uncertain.
Still, Guillette acknowledges that universities are only beginning to reckon with campus extremism, often acting out of fear of losing federal funding rather than genuine concern for campus safety or Jewish student welfare.
“We’re definitely not at the beginning of the end, but I hope that we’re at the end of the beginning,” he said.
