“The Israeli defended himself but was then set upon and hit in the face by police, who thought he was the instigator of the altercation.”

Of course, because Jews in Germany are constantly assaulting poor, defenseless Muslim migrants, aren’t they? Only in the fever dreams of the Left.

“Israeli professor attacked by Palestinian in Germany,” by Stuart Winer, Times of Israel, July 12, 2018:

A US-based Israeli professor of philosophy was assaulted Wednesday in Germany by a man of Palestinian origin, who knocked his skullcap off and shouted at him that there should be no Jews in Germany.

The Israeli defended himself but was then set upon and hit in the face by police, who thought he was the instigator of the altercation. The local chief of police later apologized for the incident.

The 50-year-old professor from the University of Baltimore, who was not identified in reports, was visiting the city of Bonn as a guest lecturer. Together with a companion he took a walk in a local park, when he was confronted by a 20-year-old German described in local media as having “Palestinian roots.”

Although initially arrested after the incident, his assailant has since been released and is waiting for criminal proceedings on suspicion of incitement and assault.

According to local German media reports the assailant knocked the Israeli’s kippa off his head several times, hit him on the shoulder, and shoved him.

He also shouted, “No Jew in Germany” at the Israeli, who defended himself against the assault.

The Israeli’s companion called police, but when officers arrived the attacker fled, with the Israeli in pursuit.

Police initially thought the Israeli was the aggressor, and when he failed to heed to their calls to stop they tried to detain him, leading to a scuffle in which he was hit in the face and wrestled to the ground. Only after the situation was clarified by the professor’s companion did police arrest the Palestinian, who reportedly was under the influence of drugs.

The attacker, who is known to police for drug and violence offenses, was sent to a psychiatric clinic but later released, as the institute could find no reason to hold him, reports said….
