Jiwan Singh blames the world's most notorious terrorist for the bias attacks he and his family have suffered over their religion.
The Sikh MTA employee was riding a Brooklyn A train on Memorial Day when a hate-spewing straphanger accused him of being related to Osama Bin Laden and then sucker-punched him.
"He was saying, 'You are the brother of Osama,'" said Singh, 59, who lost three teeth from the blows. "I said, 'I am not Osama. I have nothing to do with him!'" (SNIP) The attacker, whom Singh described as a black man in his late 20s, got on at the Utica Ave. stop.
The car was half-empty, Singh said, but the man walked right up to him and demanded he give up his seat.

There have been lots of stories recently about African-American perpetrated violence. Beatings in fast food restaurants. Flash mobs looting stores. Flash mobs causing mayhem and the closing of public beaches in some cities recently. This guy on a subway train.
Political correctness does not allow us to say anything or connect any dots. But, it’s enough to make you think that we could see repeats of the race riots of the ‘60s; that anger/hatred/resentment of some kind is ready to boil over. I hope to be wrong about such thoughts, but these stories are out there.
Holder’s people
Odds are pretty good that a Bernie Goetz story will come from one of these incidents. And when it happens, I intend to cheer loudly.
The ignorant creature couldn’t even distinguish an Indian Sikh from an Arab.
These stories make me sick. I hate racists so much.
It makes me so proud sometimes to not live in America anymore when I hear this. I love being a minority in Tokyo.
Entitlement attitude more than Islam-bigotry. One of Holder's people.
Nothing to see(prosecute) here...move along.
He should've said "I'm a Sikh, not a Muslim." That might've been the only thing that could've calmed the moronic nutball down. ....short of shooting him. But most likely nothing would've done the trick.
Almost nothing worse than an ignorant racist . . .
F U B O
“... I hate racists... makes me so proud to not live in America anymore”.
Yeah, I have heard the Japanese simple LOVE the Chinese? There is racism everywhere. Racism, sexism, ageism... any other type of “ism” you can name. This is not an American issue.
You do realize how racially restrictive Japan has been, don’t you?
This is exactly why Ubama wants to get us out of cars and onto public transportation, so Eric Holder’s people can dish out some love.
Ignoramuses are always confusing Sikhs with Muslims.
In fact, Sikhs have as little love for the Muslim Bastards as we do.
(Maybe the guy was saying he thought the Sikh was related to Obama, not Usama? Maybe he didn’t like the “change” the idiot in Washington gave him? Sarcasm).
Sikh’s are good guys/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikh ya can’t have too many Sikhs or Gurkas!
I’m surprised the black dude acted alone. Usually these feral animal run in packs and are only emboldened by their numbers. Cull them away from the pack and they’re cowards.
“I love being a minority in Tokyo.”
Right. Because there’s no racism in Japan.
I’m glad you don’t live in America too.
If I was in an urban area I'd be planning escape routes.
Oh, that’s rich, buddy. I feel sorry for you. You need to meet more intelligent patriots. Have you seen the forums here? You might learn something.
And what a mistake indeed! Sikhs have been fighting muslims for as long as the ideology of the pedophile muhammed has existed.
It really angered me after 9/11 when someone killed (injured?) a Sikh cabbie with the same mistake - IIRC. This angers me as much.
