Kosher Florida Cafe Attacked by Vandals
A new kosher restaurant in Florida owned and managed by Israelis has received anti-Semitic hate mail and graffiti for the last month.
The messages have been tacked to the door and windows of The Mozart Cafe in Deerfield Beach, the Florida Jewish Journal reported. They include “go home” and “go to hell,” as well as anti-Semitic graffiti, the newspaper reported. Police have investigated twice.
The cafe opened four months ago.
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
