The Toronto Sun reports:
Anti-Semitic graffiti spray painted on a Toronto synagogue Thursday has brought back painful memories for at least one holocaust survivor.
�It�s a terrible thing to see,� said Edward Fisch, standing outside the Beth Tikvah Synagogue on Bayview Ave., north of Sheppard Ave. E. Friday morning. �When I see a swastika I see the Nazis coming, grabbing people and throwing them into the Danube.�
The words �Islam will rule� are scrawled on a brick wall in black paint beneath a red and black swastika.
Similar stencilled red and black swastika have been reported in two other locations in Toronto this month, Anita Bromberg, the national director of legal affairs for B�nai Brith Canada said.
Both a Korean-language church not far from Beth Tikvah and a laneway near Avenue Rd. and Roselawn Ave. were defaced, Bromberg said.
Toronto Police are investigating the incident and are reviewing surveillance camera video taken by a small camera perched nearby in an attempt to identify the vandals.
�It�s hard to believe people like this � filled with hate and ignorance � are living in our city,� said Fisch who survived the Nazis�s occupation of Hungary. �But it is not the first time we�ve seen this and it probably won�t be the last.�
