Swedish Mayor Who Opposes Anti-Israel Vitriol Attacked
[Jpost] A Swedish mayor working to stop anti-Israel propaganda from being sold at a municipal cultural center was assaulted.Mats Green, mayor of Jonkoping, was lightly maimed in an attack April 7 outside his home when two men struck him and kicked him, the news site nyheter24 reported. Green, a politician from the center-right Moderate Party, said he could not identify his attackers. But local police suspect the background to the attack is Green's efforts to prevent the sale of T-shirts emblazoned with the slogan "Burn, Israel, burn" at the Socialist Book Cafe, a shop operating inside a city-owned cultural center. The shirts sell for about $40. Posted by: trailing wife 2013-04-13 |
