Your Daily Anti-Semitic Incident

For the last 3 years there has been a daily incident of Anti-Semitism some where in the United States.  These incidents have been ignored by the American media for years.  But let one person place a piece of bacon on the steps of a Mosque and the MSM will spend weeks on such a hate crime.
Anti-Semitic graffiti was found spray-painted on a North Side synagogue and Jewish day school, in Chicago, on Wednesday, police said.

A Surveillance video shows a female spray-painting the words “Kill & Rape Jews” on two buildings and on the sidewalks, NBC news reported.

“This is evil,” said Rabbi Michael Siegel of Anshe Emet Synagogue.

“Words lead to actions. Words do matter,” he affirmed. "We'll walk tall but be more weary, we are not going to cower in fear."

"The kids have had a normal day in school, and they have been protected from this," he continued. "Certainly we're not going to let any one person or any group interrupt the important things we do here."

Dan Elbaum, Director of the American Jewish Committee (AJC) in Chicago said, “The words 'Jews murder' and 'Jews kill' are particularly galling given last week’s murder of four French Jews by an attacker claiming to be motivated by events in the Middle East."

“All words have consequences, and we should keep that in mind as we call upon all people of good faith to speak out against the vandalism,” he continued.

The AJC called the vandalism, that occurred just prior to the Passover holiday "a sad reminder of the persistence of anti-Semitism."

"All words have consequences, and we should keep that in mind as we call upon all people of good faith to speak out against the vandalism," said Elbaum.

Why is it that the American media is silent on this.  In this case NBC reported on it.  A change for once.  After what happened at Ozar Hatorah in Toulouse, France I wonder if this is just a warning of what will come to the students of this school too?

The Left is big on claiming "hate crime" for certain groups, especially the LGBTQ community, I'm not sure they consider acts like this against Jews or Israel a hate crime.
