A resident of Herzliya was subject to a flood of verbal abuse and harassment on Saturday after passing by a synagogue in the city with her cellphone in hand.
People hurled a variety of insults at her, including: "You are a gentile, thank you gentile", "She is destroying this neighborhood", "You will also have a synagogue outside your house, it doesn't matter what you want", and "Wake up, the Messiah is coming, lady."
"Are you Jewish? What are you? Germany? Did you grow up in Nazi Germany?"
Synagogue attendee
At the beginning of the video, you can watch a man dressed in a gray suit, apparently one of the people attending the synagogue, begin to attack her verbally, while shouting at her: "Shabbat Shalom Nazi Germany! Are you antisemtic? Are you from Germany? Taking a photo of a Jew with a camera on Saturday, may God have mercy! Germany! Are you Jewish? What are you? Did you grow up in Nazi Germany?"
Passerby attempts to intervene
After that, the woman can be heard replying, "How do you know what I eat, you idiot." The background behind the incident is unclear, though footage circulating in the last few hours on social media appears to show the man instigating the altercation.
During the video, you can watch another man, riding an electric bike, trying to calm down the person who cursed the woman - but without success.
