Jewish School Firebombed in Montreal
(AP/Washington Post) A firebomb damaged the library at a Montreal Jewish elementary school on the eve of the Passover holiday Monday, and police found anti-Semitic notes taped to the school's walls. Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin called the firebombing an "attack on freedom." Last month, B'nai B'rith Canada reported an increase in anti-Semitic incidents in 2003, with almost 600 cases of violence, harassment, and vandalism against Jews.
