According to local media and social media posts, frightened shul-goers were confronted with the disturbing sight of “Goyim Defense League” Neo-Nazis staging a so-called “protest” outside their shul. Even more concerning, the sickening incident appeared to be one of a series of planned disturbances, taking place one day after Jon Minadeo Jr., leader of the GDL, was arrested for staging a similar display the previous day at a different Jewish facility in Georgia.
The group of about twelve GDL antisemites targeted the Chabad of Cobb County, just north of Atlanta.
Law enforcement was alerted and arrived at the scene, however, they opted to allow the incident to proceed, with Jewish members of the congregation confronting the Neo-Nazis directly. Videos circulating on social media capture the terrifying exchanges, with the Jewish shul-goers expressing outrage and demanding the immediate departure of the hate group.

On Friday Minadeo Jr., was apprehended during a vicious antisemitic demonstration in Macon, Georgia. The arrest followed a series of distressing incidents that have left the Jewish community deeply shaken.
According to the report, earlier in the day, GDL “protested” outside a Jewish facility in downtown Macon. Witnesses said Minadeo Jr. used a bullhorn to shout obscenities and spread hate-filled messages.
The disturbing actions did not end there. In the nearby community of Warner Robins, residents woke up to a chilling sight: their front yards littered with virulent antisemitic literature.
The GDL group was allegedly live streaming when Minadeo was handcuffed and taken into a police car. According to reports, the charges are “pretty minor”, with one listed as disorderly conduct and the other as “miscellaneous.” His bond was set at $910.
We need the Meyer Lansky of this generation to go there and break a few bones.
A few midnight visits to their homes and well-placed baseball bats will take care of them.
We expect neo Nazi goyim hate in us.
We don’t expect Jews to call a Chabad rabbi an animal.
Shame on VIN commenters here.
Sometimes we need to remember that were in golus and daven for moshiach
Nazi “GDL” on the goose step march and VIN posters attack other Yidden. Wow
Is this idiot wearing a dress?
We can all Thank leftist JINOs for this
1) the need for a secular education is obvious when trying to read these postings which are written so poorly.
2) it is a shandah that so many Jews make disparaging remarks about their fellow Jews because they do not have the exact same belief system.
Is this how our children are educated in Yeshivas?
It’s obvious that those putting down the Tanya have not actually learned it. There are many who learn it secretly cuz they’re afraid of others finding out. The fact is that those who learn it consistently are constantly working on bettering themselves which is always a good thing.
It’s pretty clear to see here who is lacking in fine midos and Tanya would help them so much if they were only open to it.
Did it REALLY needed to be said? Most people are more discreet when attending to their bodily functions.
Covid? They must be idiots
Have to agree with Hmm. Yes Chabad is an abomination but we can’t give up hope that they will one day see the light and renounce their Mendyism. They will then immediately be welcomed back in the fold.
Both groups spew the same superority nonsense, only difference is that the GDL is more honest about their beliefs.
I can guarantee you that almost all of the negative comments here were written by one person under multiple names….
How about letting and disturbing the peace
The hyperbole in this article is shocking, frightening, chilling, disturbing, distressing, terrifying, sickening, and simply outrageous. I am deeply shaken.
2 words to describe Chabad …..NO BOUNDARIES
oy sicko haters will probably join yaffed
The Habad Lubavitch sect has an in your face, provocative manner, putting themselves out for publicity regularly, as opposed to standard traditional Torah Judaism, which teaches modesty and tznius, especially when we are in exile.
Their high public profile can bring more unwanted attention as well. They need to admit that their now long deceased last leader was not the Messiah, and go back to acting more modestly.
I know everyone hates to hear this, but Chabad siforim are very racist towards anyone not Jewish. Mess with the bull you get the horns. Chabad must confront their own racism other wise don’t expect others to do what you yourselves aren’t doing.
