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.

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.
