Italy: Muslim students brutally beat American Jewish student

Will the Islamophobia never end? This is the kind of story -- and there are ones like it ever day -- that vividly demonstrates the unalloyed evil of those who would deflect attention from the root causes of attacks like this and defame those who are working to raise awareness of them so they can be resisted and prevented in the future.

"Arabs Brutally Attack US Yeshiva Student in Italy," by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu for Israel National News, January 2 (thanks to Voice of the Copts):

A gang of Arabs brutally attacked an American yeshiva student visiting with his family in Venice, Italy, in what local community leaders said was a rare instance of anti-Semitism.
The student was knocked unconscious on Tuesday when he strolled late at night in the center of the city. A band of 15 Arab youth pounced on him, dragged him into a dark corner and pummeled him, using sharp weapons.

The student lost consciousness, and the attackers fled when a passerby spotted them and called police and medics.

The police are investigating, but have but have not caught the attackers.

The Milan-based Center for Jewish Documentation's Observatory on Anti-Jewish Prejudice reported last month that the number of anti-Semitic episodes in the country soared last year.

The incidents ranged from street insults and swastika graffiti to physical aggression.

''We observed approximately 70 cases so far this year, most of them graffiti and online attacks, over 40% more than last year,'' said Observatory researcher Stefano Gatti. ''The boom might be due partly to more efficient data-gathering, but the episodes have undeniably increased,” he added....

"A gang of Arabs... A band of 15"---

Pedohammedans are tough.... only when they outnumber their victims.

"a rare instance of anti-Semitism"---

Pedohammedan anti-semitism is as rare as Nazi anti-semitism.

Italy: Muslim students brutally beat American Jewish student
..............................

This is what Muslim violence against Jewish Infidels looks like.

Meanwhile, Muslims claim that "Anti-Muslim violence spiralling out of control in America".

What does this refer to? To Mona Eltahawy's being arrested for property damage and assault. And she is certainly not languishing in jail—she's out on bail, and has a court date.

This is not "violence"—unlike the beating of this poor Jewish student.

And this is not in Dar-al-Islam, but *in Italy*.

The student lost consciousness, and the attackers fled when a passerby spotted them and called police and medics.

If no one had come by and rescued this kid, would the Muslim "youth" have beaten him to death? I think it is quite likely.

It isn't impossible that one or two of these cases are neo-Fascists—but I would bet that the vast majority of them are *Muslim attacks*.

Wing chun kung fu.

Karate.

Judo.

Krav maga.

Time for Jews in Europe - and elsewhere - to sign up for some full-on martial arts training.

Then this story might have ended with 15 Mohammedthugs prettily decorating the landscape, prior to their being scooped up and deposited in jug.

Further thought: if there are any among the local authorities and local cops in Europe who have any commonsense and decency left, strikes me that a few 'sting' operations might be in order.

Skinny looking nerdy be-kippa'd yeshiva student ambling along a road on his lonesome, like a poor little lost lamb suddenly turns out, when the lurking mohammedthugs pounce, to have a great many very large friends. Wham! Bam! Wham! Mohammedthugs are still blinking as they are marched off to jail, having been frisked from head to foot, deprived of illegal weapons/ drug stashes/ falsified documents, etc, fingerprinted, dna sampled, and their criminal records and welfare records and immigration / residency/ citizenship status minutely cross-checked. And if they turn out to be non-citizens...out they go on a one-way ticket back to dar al Islam, once their sentences for Attempted Assault and Battery are served.

"he hath touched the apple of God's eye". ~BIBLE

that was the verse that showed up after someone was vicious to me, and i got hauled off to the hospital. when i went back to check on the case, the wothless lady cop, (my humble opinion) said that the beater was doing another robbery and someone shot him.

first thing i said was: "oh, i'm sorry!" because i thought to be dead at 26 was such a waste of life.

with time to think, then the person who SHOT him came to mind, and i was SO GRATEFUL for whoever that was, and prayed that he not lose any sleep over having shot the robber-beater. how many times was i GRATEFUL for the shooter!

MAJOR: didn't need to think about the beater being LOOSE! didn't have to go to court.

they have "touched the apple of God's eye". ~BIBLE

i'm praying for yeshiva student to have the same deal. GOD will DEAL with the beaters....and yeshiva student ain't gotta do nothin!

Imagine, a Jew "Brutally Attack" a Muslim student in Italy

THE WHOLE WORLD WOULD BE IN OUTRAGE

The death penalty of the Jew would be demanded from the Muslims

dda:

You've beat me to it! Sting is exactly what I wanted to recommend, exactly as you have described. And if the police will not do it, Mossad and Shin Bet should revive their Bitzur operation to protect Jews abroad, and bring it to a whole new level. Hundreds of stings throughout Europe! The "baits" playing the part of "puny little religious Jews" will not have to wait long. The very sight of a harmless-looking Jew is bound to provoke the Muslim savages heavily infesting Europe nowadays. Imagine the catch this will bring! And the self-defense guys should wear hidden cameras to catch the whole incident on video, as evidence if the local police tries to charge them with assault. If not, post those videos on youtube for the whole world to see the savages getting mighty good wooping.

I have to wonder how they "knew" he was Jewish.

I do love your scenarios. I just wish they would come true.

So do I, Jan, so do I.

The thing is, the police do know how to *do* this kind of thing. So why aren't they *doing* it, all over Europe? I just don't get it. The idea of the 'goat' or the 'sting' is a very old one, in policing.

It's really no different from when the cops from the anti-pedophile squad visit the kiddie internet sites, and the lurking pedophile *thinks* he's talking to some cute lil underage moppet, and when he fixes the rendezvous and turns up at the cafe to meet her, lo and behold, alas for him, that cute lil underage moppet turns out to have been a great big ugly hairy policeman, waving a set of handcuffs.

The cops in Australia 'bagged' a nasty slimy pedophile Turkish Mohammedan 'student', that way. And there was, some years ago, a similar and highly diplomatically embarrassing incident in the USA: some cops upon springing their 'trap for pedophiles' discovered that they had caught a bearded Mohammedthug who worked for the embassy of one of the ME Muslim oil states.

If the cops in France, Germany, Italy were 'on the ball', they could - as Ruslan has already happily pointed out - probably make *hundreds* of arrests.
