Brazilian Reaction to the Israeli Conflict

It would seem that by Israel simply defending her right to exist, she has given excuse to anti-semetic scum around the world, including here in Brazil.

A synagogue in southeastern Brazil sustained minor damage after attackers threw rocks and Molotov cocktails at the building early Saturday, authorities said. Three or four unidentified people attacked the synagogue in Campinas, about 100 kilometers (60 miles) north of Sao Paulo, and painted "Lebanon, the true Holocaust" on the sidewalk, the press office of the Sao Paulo State Public Safety Department said.

Unfortunately, I forsee an increase in this kind of cowardly activity as it is fueled by overtly anti-Israeli reporting by the Brazilian press.
