(JTA) — Anti-Semitic and white supremacist flyers were dropped at houses in neighborhoods of northwest Washington DC.
Residents of the Glover Park neighborhood found the two-sided flyers dropped on their front doorstep Wednesday morning, the local Fox affiliate, Fox5 reported.
The flyers were dropped at both Jewish and non-Jewish homes, according to Fox. DC police are aware of the incident.
They offer several conspiracy theories against Jews and call for a war on Jews.
The same flyer has appeared in DC neighborhoods before.
Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
