ATLANTA — Channel 2 Action News has learned that one of the organizers of an antisemitic rally outside of a Cobb County synagogue Saturday was arrested the night before at a similar incident in Macon.

We also uncovered that another of the rally organizers spent a year in prison for the aggravated assault of a Black man in Columbus, Georgia in 2010.

Both men are part of a hate group called the Goyim Defense League.

The Anti-Defamation League’s Center for Extremism believes the group is behind not just the Synagogue rally, but a series of antisemitic incidents in recent months across metro Atlanta.

2. Could be. Found this about the Goyim Defense League (GDL) from March 15:

Snip/
Active around the country, the GDL has focused on Florida in recent months, with incidents in Daytona, Ormand Beach and South Orlando. Members target, harass and antagonize Jewish citizens in public places, specifically places of worship. They shout slurs, proudly display Nazi salutes, distribute propaganda and more.

Despicable.
