(Jewish Group) Jewish teen punched in eye on Brooklyn street; NYPD Hate Crimes investigates

The NYPD's Hate Crime Task Force is investigating after an 18-year-old Jewish man was attacked on a Midwood street on Tuesday, police said.

The victim, who was dressed in traditional Jewish attire, was approached by the unidentified man in front of 1801 Avenue M at 2:06 p.m.

The man demanded the teen make a statement about Palestine before punching him in the right eye, according to police, who told the New York Post he specifically ordered the victim to say, "Free Palestine."

Authorities said the suspect then fled on foot. The victim, who suffered pain to his eye, was transported in stable condition to Maimonides Medical Center.

Too many bigots and morons are using the Palestinian people to excuse their rabid Antisemitism. Same as it ever was.
