Berlin -- An Israeli teen was assaulted for listening to music while being Jewish. The teen and two of his friends were attacked at a railway station by a group of Arab men who became angry when they heard the Hebrew music playing on the Israeli boy's cellphone and realized he must be a Jew.
The anti-Semitic attack occurred at the Zoologischer Garten Station on Saturday night. According to Bild, the German-language paper, the Arab men said they were from the Gaza Strip.
Yonatan, 17, told the Hebrew language paper, Israel Hayom that he and his two friends, also 17, were waiting for a train when he played the song "Tel Aviv" by Israeli singer Omer Adam's.
When the group of Muslim anti-Semites heard it, they bravely approached the kids.
Yonatan, whose last name is being withheld to avoid jihadis coming to his home and killing his family in their sleep, said the group of men shouted at him, "Hebrew music? For 70 years you are murdering children. Berlin is our city now and here we don't listen to f**king Jewish music."
Then Yonatan pointed out that just as they can play Arab music, he can listen to Israeli music. He and his buddies moved away from the group but they followed them.
According to the account, one man yelled out: "If I had a knife, I would kill you . . . if I meet you again, you are finished," the brave anti-Semite said to the teen who, for 70 years, didn't kill anybody.
When the two friends tried to intervene on Yonatan's behalf, the group of warrior jihadis attacked them. One kid was hit in the face and another was injured with a broken bottle and required hospital treatment, according to Israel Hayom.
The scene was captured on security video but the scumbags ran away by the time police arrived.
Yonatan told the newspaper that initially, the police didn't take the incident seriously and eyewitnesses "did a Kitty Genovese," if you know what I mean. [They left, pretending they saw nothing.]
Berlin cops said that since the assailants fled, they could not provide details of their identities.
Last month, a Syrian Palestinian Muslim living in Berlin was charged with assault after attacking an Arab-Israeli man wearing a kippa [Jewish skullcap] thinking he was attacking a Jew, yelling "Yahudi," the Arabic word for Jew.
In April, non-Jewish Germans joined with Jews wearing kippas at several protests across Germany to show solidarity after a slew of anti-Semitic incidents perpetrated mostly by Muslim anti-Semites.
Unfortunately, Islam makes many anti-Semitic remarks in the Koran and is also intolerant of all other religions. But anti-Semitism is at the top of the hate-list.
