Police investigating graffiti of swastikas, ‘Death to Jews’ around mixed Jewish-Arab neighborhood in Jaffa; so far no suspects arrested
ynet
Swastikas and inscriptions reading “Death to Jews” were spray pained Tuesday night around Jaffa.
Police are trying to track down the perpetrators, but have no suspects at this time.
The graffiti was sprayed in mixed Jewish-Arab neighborhoods.
Tensions between Jews and Arabs in Jaffa have been simmering for a few years against the backdrop of increased Jewish presence, which the Arab residents view as an attempt to push them out of the city.
The situation has worsened since 2008, following the establishment of a hesder yeshiva at the heart of the Ajami neighborhood.

Not this old hat trick again. You would think they would come up with a new act once in a while. For a group who are supposed to be such great entertainers they sure are not very original.

“Police are trying to track down the perpetrators, but have no suspects at this time”…. try the local synagogue!

Fox News screams about all the rockets raining down on Israel but very few Israelis get killed or injured by these crude weapons. How many Jews have been killed by Palestinians since 1948 ? How many Palestinians have been killed by Jews ???
I don’t know the exact numbers but I think many more Palestinians have been killed than Jews. We don’t hear much about the Arab deaths because the Palestinians do not own our media.

Oh, come ON!
No way would ANY Palestinian do this!! Is it not obvious enough that it is A L W A Y S them??
This stuff just infuriates me; it gives the, “poor put-upon punks”, a reason to build MORE settlements and MORE walls, and crack a few skulls in the process!!
Really; when IS too mucb enough?? These people are despicable (and obvious!)

I don’t know whether to laugh or simply punch the wall in frustration. Shaking my head right now in a dumbfounded combination of emotions. When are these freaks going to at least try and cook up something new? I agree with lola, Anne, Mark and Luciana. Hollywood is filled with less than stellar ‘Entertainers’ such as Sienfeld, Adam Sandler, Jon Stewart, David Letterman, Bill Maher ad nauseum who couldn’t dream up one original idea between them on a good day. Wow, how very very underwhelming. Two words describe this lackluster and redundant exercise in futility: Arrested Development.
