(Jerusalem Post) The police in the West German city of Bonn allegedly mistakenly beat an Israeli philosophy professor after a German of Palestinian origin attacked him because he was wearing kippah.
According to a Thursday report in the Rheinische Post, the 20-year-old German Palestinian attacked the 50-year-old Israeli academic and yelled insults at him in German and English, including: “No Jew in Germany!”
The German-Palestinian knocked the man’s kippah from his head a number of times, was arrested and sent to a psychiatric clinic.
Regarding the police attack on the Israeli academic, Ursula Brohl-Sowa, the head of the Bonn police, called it “a horrible and regrettable misunderstanding.”
