Jewish community ‘vigilant’ in the wake of Boston Marathon bombings
The head of the security network for U.S. Jewish
organizations said the community is "standing vigilant" following
bombings at the Boston Marathon.
Two people were killed and more than 100 injured in two
blasts at the marathon on Monday, according to reports.
"We know that unfortunately 30 percent of terrorist
attacks had Jewish institutions as secondary targets," said Paul
Goldenberg, director of the Secure Community Network.
"However, I must
stress that there is absolutely nothing here that indicates any connection to
an attack on the Jewish community. But based on history, we are standing
vigilant for at least the next 48 hours."
