Fugitive Nazis who escaped from Germany after the war are responsible for the current wave of anti-Semitic attacks throughout the world, in the opinion of Chief Rabbi I. Abrahams here. He made that statement today after a swastika was found painted on the synagogue at Muizenburg, near here.
“This and similar outrages overseas,” said the Jewish spiritual leader, “are not isolated actions. They are coordinated. Many Nazis fled Germany after the war, and are now working their deeds in various countries.”
