A book by Noa Tal · Entrechat Press, October 2026

Something is wrong.
You can feel it.

Since October 7, Jew-hatred masquerading as “antizionism” has spread faster, louder, and more effectively than at any point in modern history. It's fracturing the left, and it's fracturing the right.

This isn't spreading on its own.

“Seeds of Subversion” names what's really going on: who benefits, how it spreads, and what can be done about it.

Drawing on leading scholars, researchers, and insiders, Noa Tal deconstructs the antisemitic claims flooding our feeds and traces them back to their source – showing how the West's own institutions and information ecosystem are being turned against it.

The lies are provable. The machinery behind them is traceable. See for yourself.

About the book

In Seeds of Subversion, technology lawyer Noa Tal, working with experts in Jewish law, neuroscience, and emerging technology, sets out to deconstruct and combat the post-October 7 rise in antisemitism — laying out both what is going on and how to respond to it.

The book, in two parts

Part One · Substance

A Jewish Response to Today's Antisemitic Claims

What is actually being claimed about Jews — and what can be said, credibly and specifically, in answer to it.

Part Two · Process

Why and How Antisemitism Is Spreading Today

Who is saying it, why they are saying it, and the machinery that carries it from the fringe into the mainstream.

The questions the book answers

Substance — what is being claimed

Did Israel commit genocide in Gaza?
Does Jewish law permit genocide because, unlike Jesus's “turn the other cheek,” Jews believe in “an eye for an eye”?
Is it true that Jews think they are “chosen”? How are we supposed to feel about that?
Why are Jews so successful? Is there a Jewish plot to dominate the world?

Process — who, why, and how

Where does anti-Israel agitation originate?
Why do anti-Zionism and antisemitism overlap so much?
Whose interests is antisemitism in America serving today?
How has it been used to destabilize both the American left and now the American right?
How is the future of information, including AI, likely to play out for the Jews?

Using Jews for political gain

Enemies of the West are using Jews for political gain, exploiting a lopsided information funnel to manufacture and spread division. That information funnel has three parts:

Misinformation

Enemies of the West create propaganda and lies that fit their narratives, to escape scrutiny and opposition.

Legitimization

They fund and benefit from subversive elements in education and legacy media to launder propaganda into trusted narratives.

Amplification

They use social media — organically and inorganically, via bots and coordination — to drag taboo ideas into the mainstream.

The stakes

Why this is about more than the Jews. The demonization of Jews, Noa argues, is inseparable from a wider assault on the foundations of Western society.

Solutions

Noa does not just uncover problems — she offers hope and solutions. Seeds of Subversion includes:

Key takeaways in every chapter
A dedicated chapter on AI and the future of technology for truth-finding, co-written with scientist and technologist Dr. Zack Dulberg
Practical recommendations to safeguard our information landscape and live well despite the rising tide of antisemitism

The societal transformation we need is not just an exercise in fighting antisemitism. It is an exercise in preserving truth, reason, and morality for the West.

Testimonials

Early readers on what the book does — and why it matters now.

“

This is the best book out for understanding antisemitism today. It is a tremendous resource for anyone who wants to understand the most current bias against Jews and its multifaceted manifestations across the political spectrum, particularly since the October 7, 2023 Palestinian terrorist rampage and the resultant global intifada infecting the West.

The eruption of Jew hatred that has swept the globe since 10/7 cries out for a response. In this much needed book, Noa Tal offers us a response that is both highly informed and deeply insightful. Written with a sense of urgency and eloquence, the book is a powerful testimony to what is most dear, most fragile, and most threatened. To read this book is to be transformed into a witness.

The Last Iraqi Jews: The 2,600-Year-Old Community That Vanished in a Generation

With David Tal & Daniel Mahni

Noa Tal interviews her own father David Tal and uncle Daniel Mahni, two of the last Jews to leave Iraq, about the sudden end of a 2,600-year-old Jewish community.

About the author

Noa Tal is a technology lawyer and proud Israeli-American living in the heart of Silicon Valley with her husband and three children.

As the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors on her mother's side and the daughter of survivors of extreme persecution in Iraq on her father's side – with family members jailed, tortured, and made to watch Jews hang – Noa grew up keenly aware of antisemitism in history. Despite these personal family stories, like many Jews growing up in America, Noa filed away antisemitism in long-term memory under the label “tragic, sad, and no longer relevant.”

October 7, 2023 was a traumatizing shock to Jews across the globe – the moment Noa realized that the history she had filed away as settled could repeat itself in her own generation, as the Passover Seder warns every year that it might.

She began researching the meteoric rise in antisemitism after October 7, 2023 when she found herself, for the first time, having to explain to her own community why the conversations happening around her were no longer just about Israeli policy.

Seeds of Subversion is the result of that research.
