Tallahassee temple beefs up security after anonymous letters [View all]

Shomrei Torah has beefed up security after three letters brimming with hate-filled rhetoric were delivered to the Jewish synagogue that is home to approximately 100 families.

David Abrams, president of the congregation, said the disturbing nature of the missives have caused the synagogue to install surveillance cameras and request increased police patrols.

“While there were no direct threats per se, the writer of these eight pages — front and back — pulled up every conspiracy theory in the popular media," he said. "And of course, where such theories are concerned, Jews are often at the top of the list of groups that supposedly are involved in terrible deeds.”

In the mostly rambling diatribe, the writer insinuates that "the Rothschilds" are “evil scoundrels with trillions of dollars," who advance "phony humanitarian causes like global warming.” The letters say the hijackers of the 9/11 planes are “still alive and well” and that “they will know when Iran is ready to strike and they will suddenly unveil that Israel was behind 9/11.”
