The important part of the video is behind a paywall. But search for his name "Alon Scagio," and you'll find a lot. Including that he was killed by an IED, Israel killed two "terrorists" [ha!] who they blamed for his death, and tore down their houses. Here's one: truthout.org/video/new-ze...

Antisemitism is real of course. It remains a problem.
The real issue now is why are Jews [or Zionists, whatever] a *protected class* while Palestinians, Arabs, Muslims [or as Trump supporters called them, towelheads, doesn't matter if Sikhs are totally different, we consider them Muslims] are not?

Surely you've noticed that the Sociopath Party is now in charge of the House, the Senate, the presidency, and the Supreme Court.
