I stand with Palestine, and the rare spaces our public can spend time and educate themselves. Genocide is depressing. Hurting books makes me sad.

How do we know this isn’t a false flag from the far right to make it seem us against the genocide look bad?
Could be, but I don’t think it really matters honestly. The message is still righteous, the books are still readable, no one was hurt. So it’s whatever.
The right is underfunding libraries across the country (in the US), attacks like this would or do already further stress libraries when they’re already financially vulnerable. This does have a huge impact on this particular library.
