This Palestinian New Yorker bragged on social media about committing an anti-Semitic attack, but many on Twitter accused him of being a hatemongering fraud.
A man named Yazied Assad who claimc to be Palestinian shamelessly boasted on TikTok that he snatched a kipa and T-shirt from an IDF veteran, but the Twitter-verse immediately began poking holes in the tough-talking Brooklyn man’s story.
Several of the commenters on the post pointed out that the T-shirt and kipa Assad claimed to have forcefully robbed from an “IDF veteran” after threatening to “choke” him appeared to be brand new items purchased from a store.
With a huge spike in violent anti-Semitic hate crimes gripping New York, let’s hope this disturbing video is the work of a hate-filled fraudster, and not the confession of a violent criminal.
