Jewish Man beaten in Montreal Park in front of his children

Post Reply New Topic

Canadian political leaders from every level of government condemned the Friday beating of a Montreal Jewish man in front of his children, with Montreal Mayor Valeri Plante saying Saturday that the Montreal Police Service was investigating the Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension incident.

Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Saturday that he offered support to law enforcement in their efforts to catch the attacker.

"The attack on a Jewish father in Montreal late yesterday, in front of his own children, is an appalling act of violence," Carney said on X. "Everyone in Canada has an inalienable right to live in safety."

Carney offered his thoughts to the victim, who had been seen being pummeled on the ground in a video published on social media by hassidic activist Mayer Feig. Feig's video showed the attacker on top of the Jewish man, repeatedly punching him in the face until the father managed to push the perpetrator away with his legs. As one of the three children attempted to help their father to his feet, the attacker flung the victim's kippa into a fountain.

Feig criticized police on X for allegedly arriving at the scene of the crime an hour after the incident, and online critics, such as former Canadian ambassador to Israel Vivian Bercovici, lambasted Carney for issuing a statement a day after the attack.

Canadian Jewish groups also expressed dismay about the failure of authorities to stem the continued trend of violence against Jewish citizens

Welcome to the new Hitler era, everyone.

In the Hitler era the the government instigated it, not condemn it and arrest suspects.

Having grown up as a Aspie , and having recieved beatings at the hands of bully strangers several times in my life as I grew up .. Does call into question , Why this fellow who apparently considered hisself as Judaic ,maybe even his children too. Warrants the extra attention of the media ,other than creating attention for the Entitlement cause of isolated judaic persons. Due to being the " In" thing for this period in time . This does not mean in any way that ,I am pro violence against anyone regarding their personal associations. But considered this over the larger picture. Does cause me to wonder,what the thinking is behind the media publishing this sort of stuff. The accounts of people dying of starvation and outright murder by The Israelis, might warrant a Superior cause to publish about ,or concerning the Plight of the indigenous women in Canada , who seem to be made to diappear over then years . The irony does not escape ne.

AFAIK Jews are the only projected group whose members are being attacked with impunity while minding their own business, or in fact while going to or from prayers, in today's Montreal.
