Last update - 00:29 16/03/2008 Firebombs hurled into home of Jewish Agency representative in U.S. By Anshel Pfeffer, Haaretz Correpondent Tags: jewish agency  Two Molotov cocktails were thrown at the home of the Jewish Agency's representative at Brown University in the United States on Saturday, causing no injuries. The motive behind the attack is not yet known. The two explosives were hurled into the Hillel delegate's home in Providence, Rhode Island. One landed in the living room without exploding and was taken for fingerprint analysis. The second hit an external wall, igniting a fire in the yard. Federal Bureau of Investigation detectives and local police were investigating the incident. Advertisement Amos Hermon, head of the Jewish Agency task force on anti-Semitism stressed that while authorities had not yet reached a conclusion on the attack's motives, radical left-wing groups were increasing anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian activity on U.S. campuses.
