San Francisco Hillel vandalized with allegedly antisemitic slogan


US vandals have spray-painted the Hillel building at San Francisco State University with a slogan referencing an ancient battle in which Muslim troops defeated a group of Jewish fighters.

The perpetrators in San Francisco also tried to break into the building, according to the Jewish Community Relations Council of the Bay Area.

The sign on the front of the San Francisco Hillel was spray-painted late Sunday or early Monday with the word “Khaybar,” which is chanted at protests against Israel around the world, according to the Anti-Defamation League. The word refers to a battle between Muslims and local Jews on the Arabian Peninsula at the dawn of Islam that ended with the slaughter of the Jewish tribes. Underneath the word, vandals drew symbols for communism and anarchism.

The center’s garage door was covered with graffiti in large capital letters reading, “Death to Western imperialism!”
