According to Rabbi Shmuley, the men originally approached him before he started filming and told him “Free Palestine.”
The full story posted by Rabbi Shmuley on social media is below.
“Two nights in a row I faced an antisemitic hate crime that nearly came to violence in a Miami Beach hotel, very near where I grew up and where my mother lives. Because the executives of the establishment have taken this matter seriously, I will not name the establishment as it is always my preference to work with venues and businesses where antisemitic incidents occur to make sure they stamp out all threats to their Jewish clients, protect them, and punish the perpetrators rather than attempt to shame the venue in question. In this case, the security was ABSOLUTELY wrong in speaking of “two sides to a story” as they watched two men – who identified themselves as “Arabic” – right in my face threatening and abusing me. Let me be clear. Every Arab and Muslim is my brother and sister, equal under the one God. We are all@equally His children. The exception is haters like the ones you’ll witness in this video. But what I will tell you is that I show this video so you can see the eruption of antisemitism around the United States. And second so we all learn never to go underground as Jews, to God forbid stop wear our yarmulkes or Magen Davids. To the contrary, if you get attacked or threatened, call security or the police immediately but try – without endangering your life – and stand your ground. Show the antisemitic haters that you never fear them.”
LANGUAGE WARNING – VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED
is this story worth posting with all the vulgar language and the woman dressed like they are in a night club admin should take this off a frum website
This has happened to me on the streets of NYC. I told him I agree we should remove all the arabs from israel
that why we need guys like ben gvir and smotrich to show these people we won’t stand for this garbage
For hundreds of years [from year 1683 or earlier, until year 1922], the Holy Land was ruled by the Turkish Ottoman Empire. During all those years:
[1] There was NEVER a district or region known as “Palestine”.
[2] There was NEVER a people who identified themselves as “Palestinians”.
[3] There was NEVER movement to “Free Palestine” or create a “Palestinian” state.
The ancient historian Josephus [who lived approximately from year 37 to year 100 of the Common Era] wrote about the history of the Holy Land in great detail.
Yet he NEVER mentions “Palestinians”.
The Emperor of Rome gave the Holy Land the new name of “Palestine” in the year 135 the Common Era.
Therefore, Josephus, who died around the year 100 CE did not live long enough to see the Holy Land have its name changed to “Palestine”.
Last but not least, Josephus mentions that in his time, the Philistines had already been extinct for many centuries. Therefore, it is not possible for anyone alive today to claim the Philistines as their ancestors, as some “Palestinians” attempt to do.
I had this happen to me here in Brooklyn, in Kensington (“next door” to Boro Park) a couple of times.
The last time they asked me to read their cellphone which said “FREE PALESTINE”.
I said, “Oh, another free Palestine? Thanks for the offer, but we Jews already have one Palestine – it’s called Israel. Can you say ISRAEL?”
The hotel is the Fontainbleu in Miami Beach
Did he try to sell them his book?
All Arabs and Muslims ARE NOT MY BROTHERS OR SISTERS let them go to HELL where they belong the rise of anti JEWS is mostly because we have filthy Arabs infiltrators in this country and boteach should sue the fountainbleu for not adequately protecting his rights as a Jew minding his own business (bs security having to investigate bs double talking shevatza
Also try to get the first punch in
There is a difference between a hate CRIME and hate SPEECH. A threat is a Crime. A rant is Speech. If you are in any way threatened, call Law Enforcement (not rent a cop) and demand to fill out a report. If physically threatened – FIGHT BACK!
This free Palestine is beyond ridiculous. You could have a jew post a video of himself eating a bagel and there’s always a few jew hater in comments section that will say
Free blah blah blah …
this is a daily occurence on the streets of eric fjcc adams in nyc but NOT in moscow as the ohev yisroel doesnt tolerate it.
Who does drama always follow Rabbi Shmuley Boteach
Just saying.
Free Judea and Samaria from Arabs!
It would have been more interesting if S.Botaech would have actually had a real dialogue stating facts instead of just being the victim.
He is not a Rabbi and definitely not orthodox! He is a very mixed up person with many distorted views that are totally against torah values! Even if some of the stuff he says might sound kosher, that is precisely what makes him a danger to out mesorah based yidishkeit! Full of apikorsus and definitely seeking attention!!!
Anti-Semitism at the Fontainebleau? I find that hard to believe.
Was it Kosher?
Man. What this guy will do just to draw attention to his sorry self. Pheh.
This is the trouble the Zionists cause like that always do. They want American Jews to make Aliyah so they can get their evil hands on them. Is there anything the Zionists won’t do to destroy Yiddishkeit?
