This California synagogue was just vandalized with anti-Zionist graffiti, one year after being destroyed by wildfire

JL;DR SUMMARY The Pasadena Jewish Temple and Center in California, which was destroyed by the Eaton wildfire in January 2025, was recently vandalized with anti-Zionist graffiti.

Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
