The Jewish Federation of Cincinnati put out a statement online about this banner, saying in part, “Although the banners are gone, they are a sad reminder of the current prevalence of antisemitism and our need to remain vigilant.”

    Just in case someone thinks this is about Israel, it isn’t. It isn’t even about the U.S.

    The banner read, “Save Ireland from the Jews.”

    So why the fuck that is hanging above an Ohio parkway, I have no fucking idea.

    Nazis are stupid.

      People who hang banners in Ohio about saving Ireland from Jews generally aren’t big readers. And they probably aren’t big celebrants of Bloomsday if they are. They prefer works that sound best in their original German.
