Man speaking Hebrew attacked by 3 thugs in San Jose. Horrible and Despicable!

You are unlikely to find someone more critical of Israel's actions than I, but this man was not doing anything and speaking Hebrew is NOT a crime and how do they know his views on Iran/Gaza/Lebanon? Thousands of American and European Jews have been protesting Israel's behavior. Even if he is a supporter of these actions by Israel -- it is immaterial. You have NO right to attack someone physically for their views and when they did NOT assault you. I hope these 3 thugs are tried and convicted of a Hate Crime. Disgusting.

2. I wouldn't be surprised if the attackers are connected to the Iranian REvolutionary Guards

These people are privileged elites that live well and want to maintain their position and everything that comes with it.

4. I do not wish ill of the people of Israel. Like the U.S. they are not all of one heart and mind. I am, however, sick

to death of their murderous actions and their political manipulation of the U.S. through lobbying and the Christian Zionists. None of this gives anyone the right to attack a Jew for being a Jew. Unacceptable.

8. No more than stating the "murderous" actions of President Trump have destroyed the reputation of the U.S. in

the world.

6. Thankfully, no one was assaulted in that discussion by three onlookers.

which is to me, a very relevant and distinct difference between that and this.

Peacewave: Three days ago on DU we had a very popular thread (195 recs) entitled "I'm so sick...

7. That's terrible

I hope his attackers are prosecuted.
