"German" Sajed Aziz jailed for stabbing rabbi

A German court has jailed a Muslim of Afghan origin for three and a half years for stabbing an Orthodox Jewish rabbi in the stomach in the street.

The court in the south-western city of Frankfurt convicted Sajed Aziz, 23, of grievous bodily harm.

Witnesses said he had shouted anti-Semitic insults at the victim, Rabbi Zalman Gurevitch, 43.

The case sparked a discussion in Germany about whether there were no-go areas for Jews in some cities.

Passing the sentence, Judge Klaus Drescher said there had not been enough evidence to support the original charge of attempted manslaughter.

Rabbi Gurevitch's injuries were not life-threatening.

However, he noted that Aziz had clearly called Mr Gurevitch a "Jewish pig".

Aziz admitted in court that he had stabbed his victim on a Frankfurt street on 7 September 2007 but called it self-defence, saying Mr Gurevitch had grabbed him by the collar.

The rabbi said Aziz had first shouted anti-Semitic slurs at him, then plunged a nearly three-inch (7-cm) blade into his lower abdomen.

Remember, if in doubt, refer to rule 27A in the Political Correctness Handbook (2008 Edition):-

“Any form of resistance from a non-moslem to a moslem will be construed as provocation .”

Easy with the broad brush, fella. Keep in mind that thanks to the ceaseless guilt trip inflicted by Western media, Germany has been convinced that any attempt at defending itself is akin to Nazism.

The good Judge is just the by-product of a 60-year indoctrination program. Started by the Americans, BTW.

As we are fond to say in France, all the Germans with a spine died on the Eastern front, now they only got the wimps left.
