Israelite Association of Venezuela : ウィキペディア英語版 | Israelite Association of Venezuela The Israelite Association of Venezuela, (Spanish: ''Asociación Israelita de Venezuela''), known as Tiferet Israel, founded in the 1920s by Sephardic Jews, is the oldest surviving Jewish organization in Venezuela. An association of Sephardic Jews, it supports a large synagogue in Caracas and counts about 800 families among its members.〔David Krusch. (The Virtual Jewish History Tour Venezuela ), ''Jewish Virtual Library''〕 ==2009 attack==
In late January 2009, the synagogue was badly damaged in a well-organized attack, following an article inciting anti-Semitic violence, which appeared (later removed, and replaced by an apology) on a government website, after the 2008–2009 Israel–Gaza conflict. 〔(Venezuela's Jews fear more attacks ), Yahoo News, 02-06-2008〕〔(Grupo armado causa destrozos en la Asociación Israelita de Venezuela ), ''El Universal'', 01-02-2009〕〔(Synagogue in Venezuela vandalized ), ''Jerusalem Post'', 01-02-2009〕 An armed gang consisting of 15 unidentified men broke into the synagogue, tied and gagged security guards and occupied the building for several hours.〔( Synagogue desecrated in Venezuela ), BBC, 01-02-2009〕 Anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli graffiti was daubed on the walls 〔(Confederación de Asociaciones Israelitas de Venezuela ), 01-02-2009〕 and the synagogue office and Holy Ark were ransacked. They also called for Jews to be expelled from the country. Venezuela's Foreign Minister Nicolas Maduro condemned the act as a "criminal act of vandalism". The Information Minister Jesse Chacón also condemned the attack and denied it had any connection with the government.
