*Bolivarian government condemns violent acts against Jewish Community in
Venezuela*



 "The government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela rejects and
condemns the acts of vandalism against the synagogue - headquarters of the
Israeli Association of Venezuela, located in Maripérez, Caracas -
perpetrated by an unknown group." This happened at daybreak Saturday.



This statement was made by Foreign Affairs Minister, Nicolás Maduro, this
Saturday, during a special act to receive the Venezuelan top officials of
the Diplomatic Mission in Israel .



"With the usual clearness of the Bolivarian Revolution, which always says
the truth, we undertake, (…) on behalf of President Hugo Chávez, to
investigate and present the results of such investigation, so we can put in
prison the responsible of this delinquent acts," said Maduro.



He ratified the respect towards the Venezuelan Jewish community and denied
that the Bolivarian Government promotes anti-Semitism.



"Thanks to the Constitution passed in 1999 and the behavior and conscience
of our head of State, our government and people, Venezuela guarantees
absolute religious freedom and equality for all practicing and believers of
the countries," said Mr. Maduro.



Daybreak Saturday, some persons, who have not been identified yet, went to
the synagogue shoot into the air, made ring out sirens and shouted rude
words against the Jewish community. This information was later confirmed by
the president of the Israeli Association of Venezuela, Elías Farache.
