| Summary | The Zionist Occupied Government (ZOG) conspiracy theory alleges that Jews secretly control the governments of Western nations, particularly the United States, and manipulate policy to serve Jewish interests. It is a modern antisemitic conspiracy theory that overlaps with the New World Order narrative. Proponents claim that Jewish elites orchestrate global events and crises. |
| Origin | The term 'ZOG' emerged in the late 20th century within far-right and white supremacist movements in the United States, drawing on earlier antisemitic conspiracy theories such as the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. |

| Evidence / consensus | There is no evidence of Jewish control of governments. The theory is a well-documented antisemitic trope with no factual basis. |
