“Juden raus” was a slogan used in Nazi Germany, meaning “Jews out”.
“Make America Great Again” was a slogan of the Donald Trump Presidential campaign, which he has retained since the election.
Places targeted by the letter include the Harlem Business Alliance, Numero Uno Jewelry and a Starbucks in Harlem.
Also sent letters were a law firm, a law office and a bakery/butcher in Brooklyn.
The Israeli consulate in Midtown East also received a letter.
