Moshe said he was wearing a black kippa, a traditional head covering worn by Jewish men, at the time of the incident on Elliman Avenue.<\/p>\n
“I was thinking two things,” he said. “Number one was survival. Number two, I was just berating myself: ‘What were you thinking going out like this, in England, as a visible Jew?'”<\/p>\n
In the video, the man can also be seen repeatedly swearing, asking “what are you doing round here, bro?” and calling Moshe a “dirty Jew”. <\/p>\n
He said the incident had left him feeling unsafe in some parts of the country.<\/p>\n
Police said officers were called at 16:36 BST and that a man in his 20s had been threatened.<\/p>\n
Det Insp Terry Dixon said the incident would “cause a great deal of concern” within Jewish communities.<\/p>\n
He added: “Antisemitic incidents, or indeed any hate-related incident, will not be tolerated and we will do everything in our power to bring those responsible to justice.”<\/p>\n
Shomrim, a volunteer group that supports Jewish communities, described the incident as an “abhorrent, vile and unprovoked antisemitic assault”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Moshe said he was wearing a black kippa, a traditional head covering worn by Jewish men, at the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":546905,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[59,57,58,50,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-546904","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-kingdom","tag-gb","tag-great-britain","tag-greatbritain","tag-news","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546904","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=546904"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546904\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/546905"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=546904"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=546904"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=546904"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
