Police: Suspected arsonist of Paris Jewish center is Jewish
I am so embarassed. Turns out the guy that scrawled swastikas onto the walls of the Jewish soup kitchen / community center and then set it on fire, may have been Jewish. Haaretz reports that a community center employee has been arrested. Police claim he may have done it because he heard he was about to be fired. The BBC reports that the man worked as a guard at the center and that he was “more or less homeless” and “mentally unstable”, according to the Police.

Wow, this gives me flashes of the movie “The Believer”
We’ve all known for a while that being Jewish does not eliminate this sort of behavior. No need to be embarassed if he was mentally disturbed…but I agree this may give fodder to those who think *all* of these events are made up.
You may find it interesting to check the pages in the field of.
