The Grenoble Synagogue was desecrated last week with anti-Semitic slogans and swastikas. Police say that slogans stating that the claim that the Holocaust took six million Jewish lives is “nothing but six million Jewish lies,” were found dubbed on the building’s walls. The slogans were immediately washed off by municipal employes and police are investigating. The incident took place last Thursday but was reported only on Monday.
