(Scroll down for video) An ultra-Orthodox Jewish man, who was beaten by Muslims in Amsterdam, is now asking police to drop the assault charges filed against the men, according to a statement released by the Neturei Karta organization.
Rabbi Joseph Antebi, a Neturei Karta leader who was attacked last week in Amsterdam by several Muslims, went to the police and asked to dismiss the charges against the Muslims after they tried to run him over with a vehicle and severely beat him. Antebi asked the police to allow him to meet with the suspects in order to be able to explain to them that "not everyone who looks like an ultra-Orthodox Jew is a Zionist."
As we reported earlier, A leader of the ultra-Orthodox Jewish Neturei Karta group, which is a fierce anti-Zionist organization, was beaten by a group of Muslim men in Holland.
Dutch police said that Joseph Antebi, 50, was attacked yesterday by Muslim men in Amsterdam. According to information obtained by the police, several Muslim men came over to his stopped car, pulled him out from his vehicle, beat him and spit on him. The suspects then fled from the scene.
The rabbi begged passersby for help, but his pleas were ignored.
According to the police report, Antebi called the police and was able to provide cell phone images of the suspects to the police. "Rabbi Antebi is in the hospital and in stable condition. Antebi is suffering from severe pain, nausea and vomiting. He is also suffering from internal bleeding," according to a statement released by Neturei Karta.
However, the group remained defiant in defending radical Islamic militants. “This incident just shows how the Zionist are fanning the flames of anti-Semitism throughout the world,” the group said in a statement.
