Rome - Twenty Shops Defaced With Swastikas

Rome, Italia - About 20 Jewish shops across Rome were vandalized and defaced with swastikas in an apparent neo-fascist attack linked to fighting in the Middle East.

Owners of the 20 shops in the center and outskirts of the Italian capital foud there door locks filled with glue, shutters nailed closed and swastikas defacing nearby walls, said a spokesman for Rome's Jewish Community.
