Washington, March 1 (RHC)-- Jewish schools and community centers in 11 states across the U.S. have been hit by another wave of bomb threats.  It marks the fifth wave of threats against Jewish community centers and Jewish schools nationwide over the past two months.

At least two Jewish cemeteries have also been desecrated in recent weeks.  Over the weekend, as many as 500 gravesites at a Jewish cemetery in Philadelphia were toppled or damaged.

While President Trump issued a statement last week decrying the bomb threats after enormous pressure, many say his administration has fostered a culture of hate against Jews, as well as Muslims, that has contributed to the rise in anti-Semitic and Islamophobic attacks nationwide.
