Former State Department counterterror coordinator Ambassador Nathan Sales on the concerns of the growing Middle East conflicts affecting the U.S.
As tensions remain high and antisemitic and hate messages continue to spread across the U.S., a school district in Maryland has become the latest victim to these threats.
School officials from Montgomery County Public Schools in Maryland announced they are investigating after antisemitic and hate-based graffiti was found at two schools last month.
According to officials, on October 20, a student at Chevy Chase Elementary reported finding swastikas, inappropriate words, and a stick figure drawing of a person firing weapons displayed on a wall in the boys’ bathroom.
The vandalism was reported to school officials who said it was quickly removed.
