Anti-Semitic Attack in Sweden

September 28, 2012 2 Comments



Late last night, a Jewish community building in Malmö, Sweden was attacked. Although, thankfully, no one was injured, Rabbi Saperstein reminds us, “Last night’s attack serves as a bitter reminder of the anti-Semitism that has plagued that community for too long.” Our thoughts and prayers are with the members of the Malmö community, who have known too many incidents of violence directed at its members and institutions.
