Jew Watch is an antisemitic website that promotes Holocaust denial and various negative claims about Jews. The claims include allegations of a conspiracy that Jews control the media and banking industries, as well as accusations of Jewish involvement in terrorist groups. The site contains a large amount of propaganda, according to Sam Varghese of The Age, similar to that used in Nazi Germany. It is widely considered a hate site. Jew Watch has received support from Stormfront, a white nationalist and neo-Nazi site. The site describes itself as a "not-for-profit library for private study, scholarship, or research [that keeps] a close watch on Jewish Communities and organizations worldwide".
The site received media attention in April 2004 when it emerged as the first result in a Google search for the word "Jew" and a petition was started to get the site removed from Google search results. A scandal in 2006 involved solicitations for donations to aid victims of Hurricane Katrina being redirected to Jew Watch.
Established in 1998, the website is owned and maintained by Frank Weltner, a member of the defunct National Alliance, a white nationalist and white separatist organization.
Jew Watch features a collection of writings, articles, videos, and links, organized in the form of a Web directory. The material is organized under topic headings such as Jewish Controlled Press, Jewish Entertainment, Jewish Banking & Financial Manipulations, Jewish-Zionist-Soviet Anti-American Spies, Jewish Communist Rulers & Killers, Jewish Terrorists, Zionist Occupied Governments – Z.O.G., Jewish Communists, Jewish Atrocities, and so on.
