Suspected gay-rights activists vandalized a Tel Aviv synagogue. Vandals smashed windows in the early morning attack on the Geulot Yisrael synagogue and scrawled on a wall, “If we can’t march in Jerusalem, you won’t walk around in Tel Aviv.” The graffiti referred to fervently Orthodox Jews’ push to cancel the WorldPride 2006 gay pride parade scheduled for Jerusalem next Friday.
