Vandals Hang Banner in Poland Calling for ‘Islamic Holocaust’

Vandals in the Polish city of Poznon hung a banner threatening a new Holocaust, local media reported on Tuesday.
But the Holocaust that was threatened was not against Jews, but Muslims, in the wake of the simultaneous assaults by ISIS terrorists in Paris last week.
“Pray for Islamic Holocaust,” read a banner, marked with the Celtic cross, a sanctioned neo-Nazi symbol in Poland (that is illegal in Germany), and hanging on an overpass over the Hetmanzka freeway through the city.
Law enforcement officers removed the offensive banner but had yet to announce any suspects, according to local reports. A police spokesperson said officers were looking for suspects.
Tensions are high across Europe after Islamic State carried out a series of attacks against civilians in Paris last Friday in what French President Francoise Hollande called an “act of war.”
