More than 230 Jewish Cemetaries desecrated in 5 years in Germany....
This is really distressing....
237 Jewish cemeteries were reported desecrated in Germany, between 2002 and 2006, an average of around 50 a year, the daily newspaper Taggespiel reported, quoting the German Interior Ministry.
This phenomenon culminated in 2002 with 60 desecrations against 39 in 2006, the ministry said in reply to a question by Petra Pau, a leader of the Left Party in the Bundestag or Parliament.
There are approximately 2,000 Jewish cemeteries in Germany.
" I am shocked,” declared the secretary general of the central Council of the Jews in Germany, calling for the designation of a governmental representative for the fight against the extreme-right and anti-Semitism.

That leaves me to wonder how many non-jewish cemeteries were desecrated.
