Jewish monument in Germany vandalized a second time in days
By DPA

For the second time in days, neo-Nazi graffiti was scrawled Friday on a German monument commemorating Jewish women and the thousands of concentration camp victims killed on forced marches during World War II.

Police in the eastern town of Soemmerda said they had no idea who
had painted swastikas on the pillar during the night.

The monument marks the last terrible act of the Nazis, who forced weakened inmates of the camps in 1945 to trek away from Allied armies. Thousands died of exhaustion only days before the German defeat.

Thuringia state police said neo-Nazis had repeatedly attacked the monument.

Authorities have been regularly scrubbing off the graffiti. Neo-Nazi graffiti was also daubed on a Left Party office in the town and on walls of the home of the mayor, Wolfgang Floegel, who is a leftist.
