At least 10 Jewish homes and businesses around Paris and a synagogue in the northern French city of Rouen have been defaced, according to police, with antisemitism being considered as a motive.

The acts of vandalism came as France marked 10 years since the Paris terrorist attacks that shook the country. Twelve people were killed at the offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo and five people were killed in the subsequent antisemitic attacks on a kosher supermarket in January 2015.

Buildings in the Parisian suburbs of Vincennes, Saint-Mandé and Fontenay-sous-Bois, many located near the Hyper Cacher kosher supermarket where the attacks took place a decade ago, were affected on Sunday and Monday, police said. A rabbi’s home and a synagogue in Rouen were also targeted with antisemitic messages and swastikas scrawled on the buildings.

    Maybe you should examine whether it makes sense to silence Jewish voices on the anniversary of a Jewish massacre because of a decade-old blog post that wasn’t even written by the person quoted.

      I’m not the Shomrim…

      If someone does something wrong they don’t get a free pass from me because their religion matches mine.

      So while you label that “silencing Jewish voices” I label it “silencing supporters of genocide”.

      Can you clarify why you care more about the genocide deniers religion then them denying a genocide?
