A Jewish man who lost family in the October 7 attacks was jeered at by protestors who made pig noises and pretend horns while at a San Francisco council meeting.
The incident occurred on January 8 at a San Francisco Board of Supervisors hearing scheduled the day before a vote on a resolution to call for a ceasefire in Gaza.
In a moving speech to the Board the man described how his first cousins were killed at Kibbutz Be'eri on October 7.
'This resolution does one thing, it fuels antisemitism and hatred, as exemplified in this room right now' the man tells the meeting.
Pro-Palestinian protesters could be seen making pretend horns with their hands and pig noises while the man spoke.
'Listen, the pig noises and everything else is pure antisemitism,' he said while remaining calm.
'I have never, since I moved to San Francisco, seen this kind of hatred against a minority group ever,' he explained.
'A public demonstration of hate against a minority group.
'Just look at the behavior in this room and this is what it's like in the rest of the city.'
He added: 'My kids and I do not feel safe in San Francisco and this resolution simply does advertisement and PR around the world and in this country and in this city for that.'
'Five members of my immediate family that used to come and visit me in San Francisco, were murdered at Kibbutz Be'eri on October 7,' the man recalled.
'Two family members, my first cousins, were taken hostage.
'They were released in the second round of hostage releases,' he said.

And who did this Jewish guy vote for?
“Never again” requires voting Republican.
The Nazi party didn’t just spring out of a vacuum. It was born in environments like this.
“A Jewish man who lost family in the October 7 attacks was jeered at by protestors...”
Who’d he vote for?
Does anybody feel safe in SF?
Imagine this “protest” and overt anti Semitic behavior happening at any public meeting in the United States thirty years ago. America has changed. These people do not exist in a cultural, social or political vacuum. Just another example that there simply no longer exists the consensus of commonly held decent values that once united America.
I really don’t understand how you can support what Hamas did.
NOTE TO SELF: Watch the “Death Wish” series this weekend.
who ARE these people??
I don’t think they’d hesitate to kill every Christian and Jew they could find.
