JERUSALEM (VINnews) — In a sickening example of hateful behavior towards chareidim which occurred in Tel Aviv, a man walking down a street deliberately pushes a yeshiva student to the ground and walks away. The yeshiva student was uninjured but extremely humiliated by the wanton attack, which was caught on security cameras of a nearby store.

The attack occurred last Friday as a number of yeshiva students were walking down a Tel Aviv street and were accosted by a secular person who violently pushed one of them to the ground. The yeshiva student, apparently a Chabad youth who was preparing to place Tefillin for bystanders, was shielding his eyes with his hat as he walked but the attacker deliberately walked up to him and pushed him. The surveillance footage has been submitted to police and a complaint was made against the attacker.
The student later related that “We were on a way to a Tefillin campaign which we do weekly, walking on Allenby Street when a man confronted us, screamed “chareidim” and pushed me to the floor.”
the Religious Zionist party responded by stating that “for an entire year the government of division and hatred has been bearing fruit. Liberman and his wheelbarrows and Yair who is constantly inciting against us in his campaigns, build their political existence on hatred of religious people and chareidim.
“Religious Zionism is committed to fixing this. With G-d’s help after the elections we will establish a government which will serve the entire people. The state of Israel is the national home of the Jewish nation and inciting against parts of the people causes a rift and division and harms the delicate fabric of Israeli society. Enough incitement!”
totally unjustified. he should face charges
Same goes when Charedim throw stones on JEWISH police and call them Nazis
we can’t make a whole issue when a Chiloni attacks a Cheredi and look the other way when Charedim do the same to Chilonim
They should sentence him to a year in yeshiva.
Evil guy should be put in a cage with Lieberman and the key thrown away.
A “secularist”? That’s a new one. Do they have ancestor worship and go on pilgramages to gravesites of old ballplayers?
Liberman did not invent hatred against Haredim: However, he exploited it, when it became apparent that his party would not have enough votes to be represented in the Knesset. That his words acerbate Israeli polarization should be noted.
It is so sad that Jew can’t get along with Jew, how can we expect non-Jew to respect us
Sick chiloni goy.
The Chabad guy should check his tefillin.
There is many Aryan goyim in Israel today. Amongst them proclaimed nazis. If this was a Jew I pity his soal.
“The state of Israel is the national home of the Jewish nation…”
This is idolatry and (therefore) silliness.
The Jewish people, as our chachomim have written for centuries, are a nation of Hashem and His Torah, not any land. That’s why the Torah was given at Har Sinai rather than in E”Y.
Where are the religious parties or are they busy fighting each other for power. Only Ben Gevirs party spoke up for something to be done. Vote Ben Gevir.
What does Poupko say to this?
The land will soon spit us out.
I think this article’s got it wrong.
The bochur deserved to be pushed, albeit not so hard that he falls to the floor. We unfortunately don’t train our bochurim and girls how to walk on sidewalks; yes, side walk etiquette does exist.
Sidewalks are meant to be shared and when there is oncoming people in your direction we’re supposed to move a little. Heading straight into the other person without moving is just plain wrong.
This bochur was walking straight into the other guy. You can see the other guy moving a bit to the side but the bochur doesn’t look and walks straight into him. This was not a random push or a hateful push.
The bochur had it coming for being negligent and inconsiderate, take responsibility and he should stop playing victim.
