If you’re Jewish, you have to expect this when you move into a liberal ‘RAT stronghold.

Although this could be exactly what it appears to be, I am suspicious. The left has refined this stuff to a fine art form.

SNIPPET: “SEATTLE - Police are investigating after swastikas were spray-painted overnight on two synagogues and outside private homes in the Brighton neighborhood.

Officers said swastikas were found on a synagogue in the 6500 block of 52nd Avenue South and another in the 5100 block of South Morgan Street, both near Seward Park. A swastika also was painted on the driveway of one synagogue.

Swastikas also were painted at seven spots on the sidewalk in front of private homes in the area, said Eli Varon, vice president of the congregation at one of the defaced synagogues.”

Originally published Monday, September 14, 2009 at 3:16 PM

“Swastika graffiti should not be treated lightly”

SNIPPET: “The other defaced temple was Sephardic Bikur Holim. At least eight swastikas were found in the area. The word “Nazi” was also painted in red at one of the synagogues.

For Jewish people on the wrong end of such nastiness and hatred, there is a delicate balance between trying not to overreact and ensuring such acts are not overlooked or treated lightly.

Seattle Police have no suspects but assigned the case to the bias-crime unit, where it will be treated as a serious crime, a felony.

Friday marks the beginning of the Jewish New Year, a time of reflection and evaluation for Jews around the world. There is no good time to paint a swastika anywhere. But this particular vile conduct occurs at a poignant moment and plants a dagger in the heart of a spiritual community.”

The Left — like their Nazi predecessors — has indeed refined this to an art. Fact is, though, that the Left likes to perpetrate such things and then lay the blame at the feet of “Right Wing” militias, etc... Nazi’s also made an art out of stuff like this: Night of the Long Knives, Kristalnacht, etc... It gets worse before it gets netter folks...

After a three year delay, that trial has just begun.

600 potential jurors filled out questionnaires just hours before this anti-Semitic vandalism occurred.

Four other Jewish women were shot, one of them was permanently disabled, and another was severely traumatized.

The Islamic family of the murderer instantly began a sophisticated insanity defense, and most of Seattle's MSM have slanted their coverage to help promote it.

It is by no means clear this fanatic will be found guilty of anything.

That's a strangely drawn swastika, the vandals were too clever by half.

BTTT. My thoughts and prayers are with the community.

Well they misspelled REICH and they couldn’t even draw a swastika. Darwin award nominees some day to be sure.

Whoever did it has to be the stupidest excuse for a bigot I have ever seen. They cant even paint a swastika properly. Neither is correct. One is reversed from actual Nazi usage, and the other looks more like a stylized infinity symbol than a swastika. The perp has to have an IQ of about 70 if those symbols are representative of intellect.
