Jewish Man Attacked in Slough, UK: Hate Crime Wave

0:00On April 23rd, a Jewish building inspector got jumped in slough, Berkshire, on Monday afternoon. Some guy on a black bike rolled up, hurled slurs like dirty Jew and baby killer, threatened to break his jaw, then punched him right in the face. The whole thing got caught on video while the victim was just doing his job outside of property. Police with Thames Valley are on and now, treating it as a hate crime. The attacker, rocking a white baseball cap and striped jacket, kept pressing the ultra-orthodox man about what he was doing there, escalating to wild. Accusations over Palestine before swinging. Community groups are fired up. Campaign against anti-Semitism called it. Straight up Jew hatred. No mask. The community security trust labeled it utterly apporant. The victim's rabbi says he's hiding now. Ditching his kippa at work, scare for his life and what feels like a new normal. This ain't isolated. It's part of a nasty wave hitting Jewish spots across Britain.

1:00Synagogues torched. Ambulances firebombed. Graffiti on shops. Even suspicious packages near the Israeli embassy. Over the last month, 23 arrests. Some tie to pro-Aaron group's claiming responsibility. Counter-terror cops just naved seven more. An applaud against the Jewish-linked venue. With copycats popping off and folks feeling exposed just for being visible. Pressures mounting on police and politicians to lock these stugs up for. Real and shut this down before spirals further.
