A Texas preschool teacher who posted a message on social media encouraging someone to “kill some Jews” has been fired.

Nancy Salem had been employed by The Children’s Courtyard in Arlington.
“This person no longer works for our company,” a spokesperson told me in a prepared statement.
Salem had also retweeted, “How many Jews died in the Holocaust? Not enough!”
How such a vile and disgusting person could be allowed to work around children is beyond me — but I’m glad The Children’s Courtyard investigated the incident and did the right thing.
“Providing a safe, nurturing and inclusive learning environment is of the utmost importance to us,” their statement read. “The offensive comments certainly don’t reflect our views. Our employees are expected to uphold certain standards of personal and professional conduct.”
Dallas Morning News reports the tweets by Salem and other University of Texas at Arlington students were exposed by the watchdog group Canary Mission.
Canary Mission’s mission is to combat the “rise in anti-Semitism on college campuses.”
Their investigation revealed at least two dozen current and former students had made anti-Semitic comments on social media. Dallas Morning News also reports Salem and at least 18 other students belonged to the UTA chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine.
Canary Mission said it was a “focal point for campus anti-Semitism,” the newspaper reported.
However, UTA tells the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that Salem has never been a student there.
Regardless, it sounds like the University of Texas at Arlington is infested with an ugly strain of anti-Semitism. The university must root out infected students and expel them from campus.
