Italian Jewish groups condemn vandalism of memorial plaque for Jewish terror victim
|
[IsraelTimes] Italian Jewish organizations have issued condemnations after a plaque at a synagogue in Rome honoring a Jewish victim of terrorism was vandalized.
A plaque dedicated to Stefano Gaj Tachè at the Monteverde synagogue was found vandalized over the weekend with anti-Israel slogans in black paint. The vandals also sprayed “Free Palestine” and “Monteverde is anti-Zionist and anti-fascist” — referring to the neighborhood’s name — on the synagogue’s walls.
The two-year-old boy was the victim of a terror attack by armed Palestinian terrorists at the entrance to the Great Synagogue of Rome on October 9, 1982.
That attack, carried out by members of the Abu Nidal terrorist organization, killed the child and wounded 34 worshipers as they left Shabbat morning prayers. The five attackers threw grenades and fired submachine guns before fleeing the scene. None of them has ever served jail time.
The Union of Young Italian Jews says the graffiti is “an insult to the Jewish community and at the same time a direct attack on Italy and the values on which our democracy is founded.”
“Those who commit such acts are not engaging in politics, nor expressing dissent,” the organization says in a statement on X. “They are fueling antisemitism: the same hatred that has already wounded Italy in the past and that is resurfacing with disturbing ease.”
