Ten Israeli tourists were wounded in an anti-Semitic attack at their hostel in Lago Puelo, a small southern Argentine village.
Three assailants burned, robbed and beat the tourists for four hours on Monday, according to the Argentinian media. Police in the Chubut province are investigating.
“It was a terrifying moment, several hours of fear,” hostel owner Sergio Polak told the local media. “They shouted, ‘Go, (expletive removed) Jews, you (expletive removed) Jews are robbing us’ in the Patagonia region.” He also said the attackers threw stones and Molotov cocktails, and shot guns at the site.
The hostel usually houses guests from Israel and tries to attract them through a Hebrew-language Facebook page.
Posters calling for Israeli tourists to be boycotted appeared recently in a nearby town.About 300,000 Jews live in Argentina, the largest Jewish community in Latin America.

I say any place in the world that states they don’t want Jews the Jews should leave and never visit there again.
300, 000 Jews must leave Argentina. It’s about time. Let these argentinians rot with all the nazis that they hid. Let them get what’s coming to them with their good friends rhe Iranians. Shfoch chamoscha al hagoyim asher lo yoducha.

I DON’T GET IT..
remember all the Nazis like Eichman fled to Argentina these are their eneklach.
What took the owner and co. so long to call police. 4 Hours is along time of torture.
The owner and staff of the hostel are as anti-Semitic as the three assailants!
Okay, so who was asleep for the four hours at the police station?? Or did the hotel staff just sit by “in fear” and wait for the assailants to leave?
