They quickly realized why: Someone had egged the vehicle and tagged "Hamas" on the window in cream cheese. "It was so shocking," footaction says Rachel, who asked Riptide to not use her family's last name out of fear that the vandals could strike again. "It frightens me, too."
Rachel -- who was raised in Miami Beach and whose family attends the nearby Shaare Ezra Sephardic Congregation -- says her family's car was targeted between midnight and 6 a.m. on Saturday. The graffiti was found early in the morning by a passing jogger who called the police.
Rachel says her whole congregation is hoping the police nab the vandals soon. "We've never seen anything like this before," she says. "I always boast that in Miami Beach, we're so safe. Then these things start happening."

Troubling times for the Middle East right now, and it is wrong for any group to be targeted in a hate crime here in the US. Israel is prosperous footaction in part from the annual $4billion in US economic aid, none of which goes to the occupied territories, where people have no hope of improving their economic footaction situation under occupation. Hamas takes its power from a desperate population as a result of the failure by Israel to honor it's commitment under the Clinton peace treaty footaction for a 2 state solution. footaction Israel's continued illegal settlements in occupied territories, (condemned footaction by both US political parties, by the way) show no intention by Israel ever to do so. Israel can expect continued violence until they do, and the US should withhold all US aid until Israel moves forward and honor past promises
