The Jewish Defense League, which has announced a campaign to harass diplomats of the 72 nations that voted for the anti-Zionist resolution at the UN General Assembly Nov. 10, said Sunday that it “applauded” the smashing of windows at four UN missions Sunday morning. The windows broken were at the missions of Bulgaria, Pakistan, Dahomey and Thailand. Last week, rocks were hurled through a second floor window of the Indian mission to the UN. Red dye was splashed on the Egyptian mission headquarters and a Polish diplomat was accosted by youths at a post office.
