I, for one, do not take any responsibility for the recent violence directed at Jews. I certainly hope its not a result of the mid-east conflict. I would guess it is probably more akin to the popularity of Mel Gibson's film. Its that kind of sensationalism that seems to appeal to right wing extremists. Whereas this kind of act was typical of the extreme right wing, Nazis and their ilk, in the past. In recent decades, it has become much typical of the extreme left wing. Obviously, you have not bothered to read any of the media reports about this act of terrorism, including the Globe & Mail articles I linked in this thread's opening post. Here is a relevant excerpt: A copy of the message, seen at yesterday's news conference, made direct links to events in Israel and the recent target killing by Israel of Hamas spiritual leader Sheik Ahmed Yassin. "Here is the consequence of your crimes and your occupation," the message read. "Today, our target was an empty building," it read. "Our goal was only to sound the alarm without causing deaths but this is just a beginning. If your crimes continue in the Middle East, our attacks will continue."
