Jewish School in Bulgaria Vandalized

Anti-Semitic graffiti was spray painted on the walls of a Jewish school in the capital of Bulgaria.

A Star of David equated with a Nazi swastika and the words "
stop occupation"
were spray painted on the wall of the Dimcho Debeljanov Jewish School, the only Jewish school in Sofia.

The vandalism occurred on Sunday, according to the European Jewish Press. It is apparently linked to current events in Israel.

“This act of vandalism has been made a week before the Jewish holiday of Pesach and the Christian Easter. At a time when all people, without difference in ethnicity or religion, should open their hearts for the good, these vandals have sown hate;
hate which verges on terrorism… We appeal to citizens and to civil society to react definitely against such acts and to remember that whoever sows hate today reaps storms tomorrow,” read an official statement from Shalom, which represents the Jewish community of Bulgaria.

There are about 5,000 Jews living in Bulgaria.

“Bulgaria is justifiably proud of its friendly and protective relations with its Jewish community. World ORT trusts that this outstanding tradition will be translated into constructive efforts to ensure that the ugly upsurge in anti-Semitism seen in so many parts of the world does not manifest itself in your beautiful country,” World ORT, which supports the school, said in a letter sent to Bulgaria’s Ministry of Education.

Those poor children they don't deserve this sort of thing from some mindless thugs is the start of something I wonder? lets hope not and I hope the idiots responsible for it are punished very severely

Its the same the world over I'm afraid. As these people seem strange compared to others they become objects for the lesser minded beings on this planet to throw abuse at them.

But like the Gipsies in BG they are not liked.

Its a sad fact but tonyb60 is right this sort of thing has been going on for years in fact its just an extension of the what's been happening for the last few thousand years
