A non-Jewish university student in Britain says she has been subjected to a barrage of antisemitic abuse, including being branded a “Mossad agent” and “baby killer,” simply because of her work promoting Holocaust education.

Amberley Thai, a 20-year-old third-year history student at the University of Exeter, serves as a regional ambassador for the Holocaust Educational Trust. Her involvement began around four years ago after visiting the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration and extermination camp through a program run by the organization.

Thai told British media that her Holocaust education work has prompted unexpected hostility from fellow students, who have called her a “Mossad agent,” accused her of being a mouthpiece for Israel and claimed that she supports the killing of children.

In one incident, Thai said a friend was left shocked after another student warned her about Thai, claiming that she supported killing children. She said offensive comments and antisemitic stereotypes have become increasingly commonplace around her on campus.

Thai also described encountering disturbing ignorance about the Holocaust, saying some students claimed that only several hundred thousand people were murdered, citing information they had consumed on social media.

Despite not being Jewish herself, Thai said she has found herself targeted because of her efforts to preserve Holocaust memory and educate others about what took place.
