- Images on the posters were marked with red inverted triangles associated with Hamas threats, while text accused the owners of promoting support for Israel and joining a Zionist demonstration.
- Co-owner Andrea Reinhardt called the flyers a clear call to murder, with police now guarding the bar around the clock as owners lament a lack of consequences for perpetrators.
- Bajszel has been repeatedly targeted since 2023 with harassment, vandalism, and a September 2024 brand attack, as the venue hosts frequent talks on Jewish history and antisemitism.
