The New York Post reports: Hatemongers have targeted Brooklyn\u2019s Orthodox community with a vicious assault, a string of synagogue thefts and anti-Semitic vandalism targeting synagogues and Jewish neighborhoods.
\nIn the most disturbing incident, a mob of six black teenagers shouting, \u201cDirty Jew!\u201d and \u201cDirty kike!\u201d repeatedly bashed Marc Heinberg, 61, as he walked home from temple in Sheepshead Bay last Friday at 9:15 p.m.
\nA thief or thieves also swiped seven silver ataras \u2014 decorative neckbands worth up to $600 each that are part of Orthodox prayer shawls \u2014 from five synagogues in Midwood last week.
\nAnd yesterday, vandals armed with a BB gun shot out windows of a dozen cars on Lee Avenue in Williamsburg, while a punk wrote \u201cF–k Jews\u201d in 3-by-3-foot letters at the Kererster synagogue on Berry Street.<\/p>\n
