The Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center released about the Colorado attack on Sunday, June 1, in which a man yelled “Free Palestine” as he threw a flamethrower at a group of people who were raising attention for the Israeli hostages in Gaza. Eight victims have been identified thus far, according to the Associated Press.
“The rise in open attacks against Jews in America has moved beyond propaganda, intimidation and vandalism. This violence cannot be ignored,” the center said in a statement.
