Quote: A reporter wore a yarmulke and strolled around Paris in a hidden camera video that documented him experiencing a barrage of anti-Semitic verbal abuse and intimidation.

Zvika Klein, of Israeli media outlet NRG, published on Sunday a harrowing account of the experience to accompany a video called “10 Hours of Walking in Paris as a Jew.” His colleague, Dov Belhassen, filmed the walk on a hidden camera. Klein said in his essay that he began to be concerned for his own safety as he left the city’s tourist areas and entered its Muslim-majority neighborhoods.

The video shows at least two people spitting at the sight of him, another calling him a “homo” and a third man walking close by him in a foreboding manner after saying “Jew” in his direction.

One boy whom Klein encountered near a public housing project even asked his mother, “What is he doing here, Mommy? Does he not know he will be killed?"

Klein noted that his team, which also included a bodyguard, later took the advice of two youths and left the neighborhood after receiving physical threats

Quote:Anti-Semitic, pro-terror graffiti continues to plague an affluent neighborhood in Washington, D.C., causing worry among some residents as anti-Jewish incidents continue to spike across the globe.

A swastika with the words, “F***ing D.C. cops” was spotted this week along 19th and N Streets NW in the Dupont Circle neighborhood in downtown D.C., according to residents and photographs obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. […]

The unknown vandals have repeatedly gone after Jews and have expressed support for the Islamic State, according to a number of photos obtained by the Free Beacon as investigated over several months.

If one were to be openly gay walking into a predominently black church, or white walking through Portsmouth, VA, or korean walking through Watts, black walking through anywhere in inner-city Chicago, or wearing VCU gear walking down Hampton Boulevard, I'd expect similar treatment.

While anti-Semitism appears to be on the rise, media stunts showing poor manners when visibly wearing your gang's colors when on the other gang's turf proves little other than the media "victim" is an attention-seeking moron.
