Jewish leaders meet US Attorney General in wake of bomb threats

A delegation from the JCC Association of North American and US Jewish leaders met with US Attorney General Jeff Sessions in the aftermath of the hundreds of bomb threats made against Jewish institutions in recent months.

At some locations swastikas were scrawled on walls and cemeteries desecrated.

Israeli police last week arrested a young Israeli-American man and said he was the primary suspect in the majority of the threats.

A former journalist from St. Louis has also been arrested on suspicions of making at least eight threats against Jewish institutions to harass an ex-girlfriend.
