Could be leftists, could be jihadis. Either way, this is what it means to “globalize the Intifada.”
“Cars torched, ‘Death to the IDF’ graffitied in St. Louis; American IDF vet said target,” Times of Israel, August 6, 2025:
Several cars were set on fire and “Death to the IDF” graffiti was spray-painted in a residential neighborhood in the St. Louis area overnight Tuesday, according to local reports and the head of the Trump administration’s antisemitism task force.
Leo Terrell said the “horrific antisemitic attack,” in which three cars were torched, targeted an American citizen who served in the Israel Defense Forces and who had returned to his family home in Clayton.
“Soon after, he and his family were targeted,” Terrell wrote in a post on X.
Local Jewish organizations linked the attack to what they described as unbridled rhetoric against Jews and Israel.
There were no reports of injuries. Local media reported that a suspect had been taken into custody.
Antisemitic attacks have skyrocketed in the US and around the world since Hamas led a devastating invasion of Israel on October 7, 2023, that triggered the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip, where the IDF is battling against the Palestinian terror group and its allies.
The Jewish Federations of St. Louis said in a statement, “We condemn in the strongest terms the attack on members of our community last night. This is more than vandalism; it is a hateful act of intimidation and only the latest example of what happens when antisemitic and anti-Israel rhetoric are normalized.”
KMOV 4 News said that, in addition to “Death to the IDF,” further graffiti was spray-painted on Westmoreland Avenue, which it described as “a direct attack on an individual.” The outlet added that it blurred that “part of the threatening message because it’s targeted at a specific individual.”
Terrell said the graffiti “accused him of being a murderer.”…
