History has (hopefully) taught us not to be complacent. History has (hopefully) taught us that propaganda is an effective tool. History has (hopefully) taught us that there are always extremists who exploit situations that verge on anarchy.
None of us know who was responsible for that notice. Anyone who claims they know the truth is, for their own reasons, bluffing.
If this story proves to be true, the narrative changes to one of hatred and bigotry, and an agenda of racial purity.
If it is untrue, it is merely another example of the well worn practice of manipulation and the discrediting of one's opponents by stirring up fears of hate crime.
And - and this cannot be ignored - the ancient practice of scapegoating. To use the spectre of anti semitism for political purposes is deeply troubling.
Never again.
