Muslim Stabs Elderly Jew In London: “Israeli Policies”?

What are Jewish people supposed to think when an elderly Jewish man is putting on his Yamaka, his Kipa, his Jewish head covering in London, and a Muslim attacks him? Obviously for no other reason than because he is Jewish. What are we supposed to think when we are told that Islam is not against Judaism? What are we supposed to think when we are told that the problem is Israeli policies? I don’t believe that we are facing a campaign related to Israeli policies. What we are facing is a radical, extremist, terrorist movement hiding behind a religion called Islam, which has a peaceful, non-political version.
