The below tweet from Rabbi Dov Hikind (I don't know who he is.) is very painful to watch. It shows reactions from a few knuckleheads on the street in Jersey City after the attack occurred that killed four innocent people.

I refuse to attach the sentiments shown in the video to all black people in Jersey City or anywhere else. But it does point to a problem. That problem is that anti-semitism is also found within some segments of the black community, and it should be addressed and attacked by our leaders, especially our black leaders-not including people like Al Sharpton or Jessie Jackson.
It is ironic that we have a president who has done more than any of his predecessors to defend Israel and to defend American Jews. Just this week he signed an executive order addressing anti-semitism on our campuses-an issue I have been involved with for over ten years. Yet, he is called an anti-semite, as are his voters and followers, and is even being criticized by some Jews for his actions.
To the extent that some white people engage in Jew hatred, I have always condemned them including the KKK and neo-Nazis. They are scum. People like Richard Spencer and David Duke are scum. But are we going to ignore Jew hatred when it is expressed by some blacks or some Muslims? Absolutely not.
Yesterday, I posted an article on the motives of the Jersey City killers. I received a comment from someone identifying himself-or herself- as "Donald Jay Trump". It just goes to prove the points I have made over the years.

Sad, isn't it?
