There has been public outrage in Germany after video footage emerged of two Jewish men being violently assaulted in an apparent anti-Semitic attack in central Berlin.
The two men, who were both wearing kippah, traditional Jewish skullcaps, were insulted before being set upon and whipped with a belt in one of the city’s most fashionable neighbourhoods.
A group of three unidentified men can be heard on the video clearly shouting “Yahudi”, the Arabic word for Jew.
The two victims stood their ground and threatened to call the police before their main assailant was dragged away by his companions.
The incident was videoed by one of the victims, who was named by Israeli television as Adam Armoush, a 21-year-old Israeli citizen living in Berlin.
The incident is the latest in a disturbing series of attacks on Jewish people in the German capital, which have seen men in skullcaps assaulted on the streets and Jewish children threatened in schools. Most of the incidents have involved Muslim assailants.

Sad to see that Jews in Europe long after WW2 are not safe anymore and that many politicians are too afraid of being labeled as racists to do something about it other than condemning after the fact.
