The court said that the defendant's racist motives - he told investigators he was a declared anti-Semite - contributed to the sentence.
The man was in Vienna as a tourist last November and said that when he saw the Jewish pupils at Vienna's Lauder Chabad School he decided that there were 'too many Jews in this country.'
Man found guilty in vandalizing Chabad School
Vienna, Austria — An Austrian court Wednesday sentenced a 24-year old Croatian man to 15 months in prison for vandalizing a Jewish school in Vienna.
The court said that the defendant’s racist motives – he told investigators he was a declared anti-Semite – contributed to the sentence.
The man was in Vienna as a tourist last November and said that when he saw the Jewish pupils at Vienna’s Lauder Chabad School he decided that there were ‘too many Jews in this country.’
On the night of November 26, he broke into the school and went on a rampage, using an iron bar to smash 126 windows, doors and furniture, causing an estimated 150,000 euros’ (190,000 dollars) worth of damage.

yossy hershkop
15 is joke but what could you expect from a country which danced when the nazi’s marched in
semite
hershkop u right i hope biederman and the rest of the shluchim will fight about it.
come to think of it, when they caught him he said his name is “adolf hitler” (ym”sh)and the police wasn’t sure if he did it because of antisemitic reasons
bunch of nazi…….
Takeh
Is there any difference if a Nazi vandalizes a Chabad mossad or if Taliban bochurim vandalize 770?
Yet we get upset at the former Nazi while brushing off the latter. Maybe it’s not the vandalism itself per se, but the reason and intent why they vandalize. But should that make a difference?? Takeh.
From Vienna...
15 months is not just a joke – it’s disgusting! I’m telling you, i’m here in vienna this year and the people here are really nazis – especially the old men on the train – they look at you with such hatred in their eyes… you KNOW that they were/are nazis!
On the other hand though, i really feel proud to walk in the streets here – it just shows them they didnt and never will succeed in destroying us! The jewish communoty is alive and strong in vienna and nothing that anyone tries to do will ever destroy us even that anti – semite who smashed our windows – he should just rot in jail for alot longer than his sentance!
Moshiach now!
Moshe Posner
We realize now, more than ever, the power of Judaism and the fearful threat of Chabad in particular, which has been infiltrated by Mossad (read–“Neocon”) as has been the practice of the PTB (Powers That Be) ever since they discovered Neurolinguistic Programming.
Bottom line: This is war.
