Another seemingly random antisemitic attack took place in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn. Thankfully nobody was killed, but it was still alarming and part of an insidious, growing trend. A Hasidic Jewish man was walking along the sidewalk in broad daylight on Saturday when an assailant suddenly ran up on him from behind, screaming antisemitic slurs. In a cowardly attack, he swung and viciously punched the Jewish man in the side of the head from behind and then ran away. (CBS New York)
The NYPD are looking for the man behind another violent attack in Brooklyn. The incident marks the latest in a disturbing trend. It’s another violent attack on a Jewish person that the NYPD is investigating as a hate crime.
Police say it happened Saturday around 1 p.m. in front of 545 Broadway in Williamsburg.
The 42-year-old victim was punched in the face by a person he did not know who was shouting anti-Jewish slurs at him.
There’s something strange about the CBS news coverage of this story, along with some of the other local news sources I was able to locate. While a reward is being offered by the Anti-Defamation League and the police are asking for help in identifying the attacker, the CBS coverage strangely omits any pictures or even descriptions that might help in identifying the attacker for the public. Is it because no information is available? Did the victim not get a good look at his attacker?
That’s not the case. If you go to Crown Heights Info, they have more details, plus a video. You can easily find the video from a local security camera right on Twitter. Give it a look. (Warning: potentially disturbing content depicting violence.)

How is the press not providing a picture and description of the assailant so the public can help identify him? Would it really be so difficult for reporters to say the suspect was “an apparently young black man wearing a backpack, a grey hoodie, and dark pants?” They had no trouble identifying the victim as “an obviously orthodox Jewish man.” We are apparently at the stage now where it’s politically incorrect to mention the race of a suspect in a criminal case if they are anything other than Caucasian.
Getting back to the actual story, this is unlikely to be some random event. There’s been a long history of antipathy in New York City between black residents and the Jewish community that I’ve never been able to understand. Where did this come from? These are two communities that have frequently been subject to bigotry and attacks over the course of history. One might expect they would have a number of shared interests and goals, at least in political terms.
But for some reason, relations in New York between the African-American and Jewish communities have been terrible for as long as anyone can remember. You can go back to a deep dive in New York Magazine back in the eighties where they attempt to find the roots of the problem. It’s complicated, to say the least, but by this point, it almost seems as if nobody even remembers where this systemic antisemitism came from. But nothing excuses the sort of cowardly attack we witnessed in this video.
If they don’t say what race they are, you know what race they are.
CBS = GARBAGE.
I’m guessing it’s not a “White supremacist” then.
Physical descriptions of the assailant can be very misleading in cases like these.
Would anyone care to guess which political party that the criminal predator belongs to??
My guess is that he is a DIMocRAT & a LEFTIST “activist” but that the media wants to try to hide that FACT.
Yours, TMN78247
it’s not “missing”. We know what they are: obama kids.
Someone did something.
I am guessing his name was Omar Abdul Mohamed Khan
Condolences to Mr. Yingerman. The republic 2019.
It is time for some JDL type bad asses to dress up like Hasidic old men and teach these punks a lesson..
Lots of Amish in Pennyslvania. Rumor has it they send in their attack gangs to target Jews! /Sarcasm
And if they just happen to have been Mossad in a previous life...

Why are Jews always in the front rank of activists working day and night to bring to the USA the very people who later PHYSICALLY ATTACK them...?
They think the presence of those people serve as a type of insurance policy against White Supremacy.
How has that worked out in Paris? In London? In Malmo?
They are safer there? No, they are less safe, considerably less safe.
And now that state of affairs is HERE.
If good Jews don’t complain to the bad Jews about it, you have to realize that the non-Jews brave enough to broach the topic are tarred as Nazis; the unaddressed topic continues to fester under the table.
Are they TRYING to foment conditions so that Jews abroad ALL have to do Aliyah..?
But why should Americans tolerate that? Secrecy and censorship and news shaping by the MSM. That endangers people's safety.
Example: At a university (for once I won't name them) a young college woman was grabbed, abducted and raped. She had taken the usual shortcut behind the campus party store near the campus apartments.
It came out that the police and newspaper had suppressed the reporting of stories that more than a dozen college women were attacked in the same way recently! All they had to do was warn the women to not take a shortcut,travel in pairs, carry pepper spray in your hand,etc.
Why did it happen? The university president himself gave the order and the police and media meekly obeyed. Any such crime news curtailed enrollment and made headlines that hurt the image and money making possibilities of the university.
Later there was a national reporting law tied in with national law enforcement stating all the colleges and universities had to tell such crimes were happening.
Where was Reverend Al when the attack happened?
I live in a very peaceful small town. The people in town are friendly. I would not expect that to ever happen here, but if it did, I often CCW, so perp had better k.o. me with first blow. I am too old to fist fight, but not to old to defend myself.
Physical descriptions of the assailant can be very misleading in cases like these.
**********************************
THEY have very clear video of the attack and post attack video. The perp’s face is easily identifiable.
Oh, video evidence is extremely unreliable.
It can cause the public to be distracted from the narrative.
