Rep. Dan Goldman’s Brooklyn office was defaced Thursday night with pro-Palestinian graffiti that read “Blood on ur [sic] hands,” “free Palestine,” and “let Gaza live.”
The slogans were spray painted by at least two suspects on the facade of the Jewish Democrat’s Park Slope district office and on the sidewalk out front, photos on social media show.
“This is what [Rep. Goldman] & staff confronted when they showed up to work today,” tweeted a fellow Brooklyn Democratic official, Doug Schneider, who shared the photos.
“It is a direct result of his speaking out against anti-Semitism & supporting Israel’s right to self-defense. Defacing his office is not a form of protest, it is a deplorable crime.”
NYPD officers were already on the scene when the first Goldman staffer arrived at the building at around 8:50 a.m. Friday, a spokesperson for the lawmaker told the Jewish Telegraph Agency.
