2nd Jewish Cemetery Desecrated In Less Than A Week

Coming on the heels of wave of bomb threats against Jewish Community Centers across the US, the desecration of Jewish cemeteries in the St. Louis and Philadelphia areas is disheartening and gives one serious pause.

The only heartening aspect is that in both instances the local Muslim communities have stepped forward to offer assistance.

One has to sink pretty low to find it edifying to ransack a cemetery. These seem to be a little too systematic to be the action of kids...

Well since the country voted anti semites into office, this was bound to happen.

So this wouldn't possibly have happened under Hillary?

For goodness' sake, there's no need to bring politics into this. Neither vandals or anti-Semites need any given president in office to do what they did.

Well it didn't happen under Obama, so no, it probably wouldn't have happened under Hillary.

No, because she didn't support neo nazis and name a leader of the neo nazis, Steve Bannon to top position in her cabinet.

When the Majority mood is changed against a certain minority, all minorities should worry.

When a society is targeting minorities, they should stress on advantages of the majority. When they're feel the false proud of the majority, then it turns on all minorities without exception.

Although the Jewish minority is on top and Muslim minority is in bottom of the list (of nationalism, white, Anglo-Saxon,,, ) but Jewish minority is not protected at the end of the day.

If not all minorities with the wise people in majority stand together, the wave will burn them all without exception.

there were a number of cases of grave stone toppling in the UK only a few years ago. It did not seem to matter to the Yobos what religion the stones belonged to, they just thought it was fun.
Fortunately the fad seems to have died down.

Right, because SHE wouldn't move the US embassy to Jerusalem.
No president has chosen to do so, plus I think Trump recently got "religion" on this because he's showing signs of changing his tune.

She'd keep Barack Hussein Obama's anti-Israel stand going.
Is that why Shimon Peres praised him, especially for providing more military aid to Israel than any previous president?
