Video – Anti Semitism At Brooklyn Preschool Sparks Outrage

BROOKLYN [CBS] — There hate crime fears in Brooklyn following a string of suspected bias crimes targeting Jews, CBS 2 has learned.

On Sept. 22 at the Chai Tots Preschool in Windsor Terrace, somebody spray painted message so hateful on the Jewish daycare center CBS 2 chose not to reprint them. Then, last Tuesday, somebody else – or perhaps the same people – threw eggs and rocks at somebody’s home and yelled anti-Semitic slurs.

Surveillance video at the daycare center showed someone spray painting a nasty epithet about Jews.

Rabbi Shimon Hecht said he was dismayed. It was the second incident at a neighbor’s home a few blocks away last Tuesday, and certainly over anything that involves children.

‘We have to, number one, realize that children have to be kept out of all such situations. We refer to children as being pure and holy,“ he told CBS 2.

He also said that even though these things seem small, they must stop before the grow.

”What really concerns me is this is the way it started 60 years ago in Germany,“ he said.

While the rabbi said he would like to see more action from the police, police said they have begun a hate crimes investigation.

In August, handwritten notes that read, ”Kill The Jews” were found in two other Brooklyn neighborhoods.
