Unknown vandals painted Jude Raus at the entrance of a memorial to the leader of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. The words, which mean Jews Out, were discovered Wednesday at the Anielewicz Mound in Warsaw.

During the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, Anielewicz and the staff of the Jewish Combat Organization made their plans and directed operations from a bunker at 18 Mila Street.

I noticed here in the UK last Saturday that security has been stepped up at Synagogues following the issues with the incident in south London which was Muslim related. I was only aware because I'd parked the car for minute across the road while trying to find a WW1 memorial and was almost immediately put under the inquisition. They soon realised I meant no harm and wandered off.
