Cemetery desecration in Philadelphia, and bomb threats

A week after more than 150 gravestones were vandalized at a Jewish cemetery in Missouri, 75-100 gravestones were found toppled, on Sunday, at a Jewish cemetery in Northeast Philadelphia.

And, on Monday, there were additional bomb threats directed at Jewish Community Centers--as well as Jewish day schools--in at least twelve states.  As the Anti-Defamation League notes, below, there have been, this year, approximately 90 bomb threats made to JCCs and other Jewish institutions.
