By Anash.org reporter
Presidential candidate and former vice-president Joe Biden joined the growing number of leaders condemning the arson at the University of Delaware’s Chabad House on Tuesday night.
“This news is deeply disturbing — as an alum of @UDelaware and as an American,” Biden tweeted on Thursday. “We need a full and swift investigation into what happened Tuesday night.”
A devastating fire burned in the Chabad House on Tuesday night which investigators have ruled an act of arson.
“With anti-Semitism on the rise across the country,” Biden stated, “we all have a moral obligation to speak out and give hate no safe harbor.”
Biden is usually quick to condemn anti-Semitism and on the first anniversary of the Poway shooting, he presented a plan to combat hate “whatever the source, Right, Left or Center.”
