Jewish Headstones Smashed in Athens Cemetery

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Several Jewish headstones were smashed and destroyed at a Greek cemetery in the southwestern section of Athens, police said.

The perpetrators haven’t been caught and details of the crime are sketchy.

The head of the Central Board of Jewish Communities in Greece, meanwhile, expressed anger and outrage, and demanded the police find and arrest those responsible.

Similar acts have taken place in America, as well. In 2017, nearly 150 Jewish headstones were knocked over at a cemetery near St. Louis:

The Athens desecration comes as Europe is experiencing spikes in anti-Semitic acts, due in large part to the open borders and embrace of migrants and refugees from mostly Muslim nations.

Breitbart has more:

Unknown assailants destroyed several Jewish headstones in a cemetery in a southwestern suburb of Athens, Greek police said Saturday, announcing they would launch an investigation.
“Marble grave headstones were damaged in the Jewish part of the Nikaia cemetery,” a police spokesman told AFP, without giving further details.

The head of the Central Board of Jewish Communities in Greece (KIS), Minos Moissis, said he was “very angry” about the desecration, in a Facebook post that included pictures of two broken headstones.

Jewish graves and Holocaust memorials have been a recurring target of vandals in Greece, often by members of the far-right.

The vandalism comes amid rising anti-Semitism in Europe, after a spate of recent incidents across the continent.
