Anti-Semitic graffiti featuring a swastika and the words 'yid s**t' was found scrawled on the fence of a girls primary Jewish school in London Monday, marking the latest in a series of anti-Semitic incidents in Britain's capital. The use of the word 'Yid' - Jew in Yiddish - as a racial slur has become popularized in recent years. A month prior, the words 'Yids out' were drawn on the same fence where Monday's incident took place. 'Targeting a Jewish School with anti-Semitic graffiti is very low. Nobody should have to face hate crime of any kind, especially young children,' said Michael Scher from Stamford Hill Shomrim, a voluntary neighborhood patrol group. Local authorities are searching for the culprits of the anti-Semitic incident, and are urging the public to contact them with any leads.
