New York City: Anti-Semitic thugs rough up Jewish couple, drive off flying “Palestinian” flags

Aug 26, 2014 10:44 am By Robert Spencer

Anti-War-Protest-in-San-Francisco-e1402105904951Islamic Jew-hatred is becoming increasingly open, increasingly violent, and increasingly common. What will Mayor de Blasio do? Convene a task force to combat “Islamophobia”?

“Thugs rough-up Jewish couple, drive off flying Palestinian flags,” by Aaron Feis, New York Post, August 26, 2014:

A gang of anti-Semitic thugs roughed up a Jewish man and his wife on the Upper East Side on Monday evening before fleeing in cars flying Palestinian flags, police sources told The Post.

Two cars and multiple motorcycles pulled up to the couple on East 63rd Street near Third Avenue just after 8 p.m., and the assailants began yelling “anti-Jewish statements,” the sources said.

One of the goons threw a water bottle that hit the wife, and the 27-year-old husband was punched in the side of his head when he came to her defense, according to law enforcement sources.

Police sources said the creeps then raced back to their waiting vehicles, some of which bore Palestinian flags, and took off.

The victims, who live in the area but were not identified by authorities, were not seriously injured and refused medical attention at the scene.

The hate crimes task force is investigating the assault, and police sources said that the victim may have been targeted because he was wearing a yarmulke.

There were no arrests as of early Tuesday morning and a description of the suspects was not immediately available.

    “..police sources said that the victim may have been targeted because he was wearing a yarmulke.”

    Let’s all wear Jewish symbols. God bless Israel.

      Great idea, Salah …and it’s a small thing, but hubby and I each have bumper stickers on our cars stating *I Stand With Israel* …and we’ve gotten a lot of waves from people showing support.

    Jews in NYC have many friends across the US.

    The pro-Palestinian goons are a menace but they also have many parasitic weaklings from within who have no real loyalties to anyone. Islam rots from within.

    Just some muslim youth carrying out directives from the imam at their local mosque…l am certain that moderate muslims will condemn this act anytime now.

      Don’t hold your breath those thugs are liars, they couldn’t tell the truth if their lives depended on it!

    There is an urgent need for an agency to track hate crimes committed by Muslims. Muslims are far more likely to commit hate crimes than to be on the receiving end. The best way to dismantle the Islamophobia weapon CARE is using to push Islamo-supremacist interests is the truth.

      Wrong. The only way to fight this is with violence, which is coming. Only a matter of time

    When push comes to shove (as it always does in Muslim dominated countries) so-called “moderate” Muslims are as scarce as “moderate” Germans under the Third Reich.

    It was all just a dream…

    I was sitting at a long stop light yesterday, minding my own business and patiently waiting for it to turn green, even though there was no on-coming traffic.

    A carload of bearded, young, loud Muslims, shouting Anti-American slogans, with a half-burned American Flag duct-taped on the trunk of their car, and a “Remember 9-11” slogan spray painted on the side, was stopped next to me.

    Suddenly they yelled, “Allahu Akbar! Praise Allah! Death to America! Death to Jews!” and took off before the light changed.

    Out of nowhere an 18-wheeler came speeding through the intersection and ran directly over their car, crushing it completely and killing everyone in it.

    For several minutes I sat in my car thinking to myself, “Man….that could have been me!”
    .
    .
    .
    .
    So today, bright and early, I went out and got a job as a truck driver!

    Federal & Local law enforcement cracked down on the KKK & Neo-Nazi Skinhead gangs in the 80’s & 90’s but there were plenty of other Race H8Ters ready to take their place, weren’t there.

    This better be stopped and mighty fast!!!! This will only get worse if left alone and swept under the rug. This is absolutely horrid that here in America something like this has happened!!I’m afraid most people do not know what is coming. It will be worse than anyone has ever seen so far in history. Evil knows it’s days are limited, so it is out causing havoc everywhere it can, Anyone who has the power to stop it and does not is on the side of the enemy!!!!! WAKE-UP AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      This is going on in Australia as well. Jew-hating Muslim thugs are assaulting and putting anti-semitic leaflets on cars in Sydney.

    Memo to the NYPD.

    Sting ops.

    Sting ops.

    Sting ops.

    Visibly-identifiable Jews are being attacked?

    Righto, identify the locations where these attacks are taking place.

    And start deploying “bait”. With backup ready to pounce when the Jewhating thugs take the “bait”.

    • dumbledoresarmy says

      Aug 27, 2014 at 9:58 am

      Pursuant to the above.

      New York City -resident jihadwatchers may like to communicate my above idea, re. sting ops, to whoever’s in charge of NYC police.

    Yet when I speak with my Jewish in-laws, what I hear is : “We have to try to understand the muslims.” “The Palestinians have valid grievences.” “You’re a Racist to pre-judge muslims simply because they ARE muslims.”
    “Obama is really trying to be fair to each side.”
    And my personal favorite: “I’m a FIRM supporter of Israel, I gave money at the last Fundraiser, but NO, I would NOT want my Son or Daughter fighting to defend them.”
    So, money, but no blood, and ongoing support of Obama. This is America’s Jews today, and those birds will inevitably come home to roost, because you reap what you sow.

    We’ll done let them get what they deserve
