(IsraelNN.com) Vandals struck again at the Jewish cemetery in Marseilles, France today. The Marseilles police department reported that several gravestones were spray-painted with slogans such as “White Power” and the name of a neo-fascist organization called “New Order”, as well as Nazi swastikas.

The city’s mayor condemned the anti-Semitic vandalism and called for capturing, trying and stiffly punishing those responsible.

Synagogues, Jewish schools and the Jewish cemetery in Marseilles have been targeted repeatedly over recent years by anti-Semitic vandals and arsonists.

That city has a large islamic population( immigrants ) and that is why it has so much hatred for Jews and anything they own.

France needs to deport about 90% of all the muslims living there if FRANCE really wants to stop this sort of crime.

You can support Israel if you like by buying some very good Israeli wines which are available in the States. I particularly like Ben Ami Chardonnay :) It's from a Galil winery.

I will try it, although I have never looked for an Israeli wine, but next time I am in Trader Joes where I buy the majority of wine I will look for it.

Hope you have a safe and blessed rest of the week.
