A young Jewish man was stabbed early Saturday morning near the Chabad movement’s headquarters in New York City by a man yelling “Free Palestine,” according to a local rabbi who said he knows the victim, as well as CCTV footage of the incident published online.

Yaacov Behrman tweeted that during Shabbat, the young male attacker asked the man: “Do you want to die?” He then stabbed him.

The victim was taken to the hospital and is expected to make a full recovery, Behrman said.

    Either way, this definitely shows that the existence of Israel (at least in it’s current apartheid form) is making Jews everywhere less safe.

      And like criticism of Islam is making filmmakers, book authors, and cartoonists less safe.
