(Jewish Group) Video of alleged anti-Semitic attack in Berlin sparks outrage

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)

Religious and political leaders condemned the attack on two men wearing kippas in an affluent Berlin neighborhood. DW TV interviewed one of the victims, who says he wore the Jewish head covering as a kind of experiment.

The video depicts one of three suspects hurling verbal abuse and striking one of the victims with his belt. The man also yells the word "Jew" in Arabic. Speaking to Deutsche Welle TV, one of the victims — Adam from Israel — said that he and his companion had tried to no avail to ignore the attackers.

"One of them got real aggressive and ran to me with his belt," Adam said. "At that moment I realized I have to take a video of it. I wanted to have evidence for police and the German people and the world to see how terrible it is these days as a Jew to go through Berlin streets."

Adam said that he is an Israeli who grew up in Arab family in Israel and is not, in fact, Jewish. He said the kippa, the traditional Jewish head covering, he wore was a gift from a friend who told him it was "unsafe" to wear out in the open.
