A swastika was left on a wall of the Horwitz-Wasserman Holocaust Memorial Plaza in Philadelphia

A Holocaust memorial in Philadelphia has been vandalised with a swastika as acts of antisemitism continue to rise across the country.

The Horwitz-Wasserman Holocaust Memorial Plaza said in a post that earlier this weekend, an unidentified figure vandalised a wall of the plaza, drawing a large swastika.

The memorial’s post described it as “a disgusting act of antisemitism that comes amid a staggering spike in anti-Jewish hatred across Philadelphia and the country more broadly”.

While the swastika graffiti has been removed from the wall, according to NBC, the organisation is asking anyone who may have any information about the vandalism to contact the Philadelphia Police Department.

      Your paraphrased conversation is in no way homophobic. That’s why it’s paraphrased and not a quote.

      And I did quote an antisemitic thing you said, so you’re lying again. I think I’ll just report you for trolling and move on.

        See now I’m quoting you saying something homophobic. Amazing what happens when you want to attack something.

        I’ll just do the same, once again, you’re mad at a mirror.

          I will be responding to you both, and ask very nicely that you shut this argument down. Moderators don’t want to play man in the middle, and you’re both using the reporting feature to try to win this argument. This stops now, or you both get a week vacation from !news.
