Washington, DC (TLS). Holocaust survivor and scholar Elie Wiesel, professor at Boston University, was attacked in San Francisco after his participation in a peace conference. Wiesel, who is author of 40 books and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1986, was dragged out of an elevator at a hotel by a person who identified himself as a 'Holocaust Denier.'
The perpetrator claims he merely wanted to interview Wiesel in his hotel room and get him to 'truthfully answer questions related to the Holocaust.' The attacker claimed that Wiesel's own first-hand account of the Holocaust at Auschwitz is a 'piece of fiction.'
As a result of the attack, Wiesel had to be escorted by police officials to the San Francisco airport to catch his flight back to New York.
As reported to you by The Liberty Sphere on numerous occasions, attacks against Jews around the world is on the sharp increase. Reports from Europe indicate that in several European nations Jews are afraid for their very lives, including France, Britain, Germany, and the Netherlands. Apparently the march of anti-Semitic groups, including Muslim extremists, has brought their violence against Jews to the United States.
