Antisemitic graffiti was found near Anne Frank memorial on the last Saturday of Hanukkah
Police in Idaho are investigating antisemitic graffiti that was found in tunnels near Idaho's Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial.
On Saturday, the Boise Police Department said employees with the city's parks and recreation department began cleaning up the graffiti as soon as they were informed and police are looking for parties responsible for the graffiti.
The antisemitic vandalism was discovered as millions of Jewish people across the US celebrate Hanukkah.
"We recognize the significance of this being the last Saturday of Hanukkah and we are reaching out to Jewish leaders in our community to let them know we will not stand for such hateful and abhorrent behavior in our city," BPD Chief Ryan Lee said in a tweet.

There was a rise in anti-Semitic hate crimes this Chanukkah. I don't ever remember a year when I was seeing story after story, all of the world, of anti-Semitism attacks during Chanukkah, at least not outside the normal anti-Semitism.
I know people are getting a good guffaw at the "Patriots" who marched in Philly and DC, but those assholes, once embarrassed, like they were, sometimes respond by getting violent the next go around. Given the response they were given and how people are reacting, attacking a soft target might be their next move...you know, to prove their "superiority".
