On Passover evening, swastikas were sprayed on a Huntsville Alabama synagogue • Two days later, the unknown attacked again in the city's Chabad • Mayor condemned the events
Two synagogues in the United States were corrupted by anti-Semitism within 48 hours, against the backdrop of the Corona as well as Passover, which has been the cause of such attacks for years. In Huntsville, Alabama, both synagogues have been vandalized by vandals, and police currently have no end to the matter.
The first attack took place last Wednesday evening on Passover, when anonymous people sprayed swastikas and hate speeches on the city's "Etz Chaim" synagogue. The anti-Semites took advantage of the fact that because of the Corona, there were no prayers, and sprayed the inscriptions. Police examined the security footage, but because it was raining at the scene at the same time, the operations were not easily identified.
The city was quick to condemn the anti-Semitic event. "We condemn anti-Semitism in the sharpest possible way," Mayor Tommy Bettel said in a statement released Thursday. "As a city and as a community, we stand side by side with our Jewish brothers and sisters and people of all religions. Any offense against one another - is an offense against everyone."
Huntsville, Alabama, synagogue Etz Chayim was hit with disgusting, neo-Nazi vandalism and threats last night, as Passover was beginning.
I hope the scumbag (s) who did this are / are punished.

Forty-eight hours later, anti-Semitics again struck the city. In the morning, police were called to Chabad to a city that was corrupted by anti-Semitic graffiti. It is believed to be the same people who committed the two serious incidents. Police have released a record of the suspects from the security cameras, but with faces covered so it is difficult to identify who it is.
The Jewish community made it clear that they would not be deterred as a result of the incident. "It is not possible for the actions of a small person or group to deter us where the Jewish people have called it a home for more than a century" /
