The signs did not include a terrorist message, nor were they even in Arabic. The messages were written in Hebrew and say "Welcome home, Yamit."

Residents in the small Louisiana community of Gardner contacted both the local sheriff's department and the media to report signs they believed may have contained a terrorist threat written in Arabic.
News Channel 5, the NBC station in nearby Alexandria, posted an image of one of the signs on Facebook:
"RPSO: Mysterious signs that concerned residents in Gardner written in Hebrew...
Posted by KALB News Channel 5 on Friday, August 21, 2015"
The signs did not include a terrorist message, nor were they even in Arabic. The messages were written in Hebrew and say "Welcome home, Yamit." The Times of Israel says the writing looks like that of a child or a non-native of Israel.
Gardner is an unincorporated community about 15 miles outside of Alexandria.
It's not known who left the signs.
