"You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers to be the Jews..." -- Qur'an 5:82

This Qur'anic dictum usually manifests itself as intense animosity on the part of Muslims toward Jews.

"SEE IT: Wild Brooklyn melee erupts as NYPD arrests Muslim teen for allegedly taunting Jewish subway rider," by Shane Dixon Kavanaugh for the New York Daily News, April 18 (thanks to Twostellas):

The attempted arrest of an allegedly hate-mongering teen aboard a Brooklyn subway quickly turned into a wild showdown between cops and a roiled mob, according to sources and video obtained by the Daily News.

The melee began when suspect Stephan Stowe, 17, and a group of eight friends approached a Jewish man wearing a yarmulke aboard a Brooklyn-bound 3 train just before 3 p.m. Monday, police sources said Wednesday.

"Assalamu Alaikum," Stowe said to the man, using a common greeting among Muslims that means, "Peace be with you," court documents allege.

Actually it means "Peace be upon you," which is not quite the same thing.

When the man ignored the greeting, Stowe allegedly became combative.

"You think you're better than me?" the teen allegedly said. "We are cousins."

"No we’re not," The man shot back, and told Stowe to leave him alone.

The suspect then started hurling ethnic slurs and called the man disrespectful, according to court papers.

As the tension aboard the train escalated, the man whipped out his cell phone and took a photo of Stowe, who then snatched the phone and deleted the photo, police sources said.

"I'm going to kill you right now," Stowe said, according to cops and court records. He then swore at the man, according to cops and court records, and in an apparent reference to the Holocaust added, "They should have killed all of you."

The man managed to swipe his phone back from Stowe and ran to alert the conductor, police sources said. As the train pulled into the Eastern Parkway/Brooklyn Museum stop, cops were waiting to collar Stowe, police sources said.

But that's when a mob rose up against the cops....

The story doesn't mention that this "Muslim teen," Stepan Stowe, is a black youth. This is just as much, if not more so, another incident motivated by black anti-Semitism than one of Muslim hatred for Jews. It even could be that the black kid who threatened the Jewish man (who doesn't have a Muslim name) was faking being a Muslim just for the sake of intimidating him.

The crowd of youths that gathered at the subway station to engage in the "wild melee" in support of the arrested "Muslim teen" was close to, if not entirely, all black. One could make an educated guess that there were few or no Muslims among them.

Black anti-Semitism remains a festering problem in the US, especially in places like Brooklyn, NY, and one that the MSM doesn't like to discuss. Wonder if Al Sharpton commented about this incident.

My last boss was Kenyan African and one of the hardest working guys I know.

I once met an "African American," a man from Liberia who had recently become an American citizen. He was extremely proud of his citizenship, hard working, and extremely courteous. We spoke for a while about the American political system... This was shortly before Obama was first elected, and he was horrified that Obama could possibly be elected president, simply because he had no experience, no skills, and his history.

True enough but it started when the goblin;s “as salaam aleikum” was not returned by the jewish passenger. They don’t know the kokkran that they invoke. One does not great an infidel in such a manner. Let the idiot contemplate this in jail..

And then the pinhead was silent...

Al Sharpton, the race racketeering gasbag, has fomented many of these situations.

>> “And you wonder why we true Africans don’t like the blacks of America!”

Conjecture on this front should be thoughtful.

There will be no end to the burden of slavery for any American.

Of course, that's exactly why I mentioned his name. Furthermore, Brooklyn is his old home town.

Personal experience: Once sat across from three Arab teens on a subway, and they were talking a blue streak in Arabic. Didn’t understand it, because it was dialect, and I only know literary, but their tone made it obvious they were ridiculing me. Then one of them noticed my 2nd year Arabic textbook, and the one word I understood was him saying “hua yafhimunaa,” which means “He understands us!” You could have heard a pin drop.

Revealing story which shows their true colors.

Separately, please see my post # 63.

Black Jew-hatred was a frequent, if not daily, factor in my subway commuting when I lived in NYC. I was harassed so often I lost count, though the term “harassed” couldn’t do justice to some of the crap I had to deal with.

Yet the POS actually lived in Teaneck New Jersey along with racr racketeer Herbert Daughtry, and Lionel Jeffries..

I'm aware of Sharpton living in Teaneck, NJ, but I know that he came to Brooklyn as a young child, went to school there, and started his career as a minister/agitator there. That's why I said Brooklyn is his old home town.
