WATCH THIS: Brother Of Lipa Schmeltzer Confronts Man Wearing Swastika On His Back





Aaron Schmeltzer, brother of singer Lipa Schmeltzer, was stunned to see a man walking his dog in Montreal on Tuesday – with a swastika on his back.
He stopped his car and confronted the man, asking him why he was wearing that.
The man responded that “it’s just a sign, and it is art”.
Schmeltzer responded that it’s not art, but anti-Semitism.
The man agreed to have the swastika – which was duct tape” removed from the back of his coat.
Schmeltzer removed the swastika, and the man thanked him.

  1. This isn’t our way in galus. Move on and ignore rather than risk your life with someone who may be a dangerous meshugana capable of who knows what.
  2. Why is it of any importance to note that this is the entertainer Mr. Schmeltzer’s brother? Why is this a story — only because of the coincidence of who this guy’s brother is?
  3. The swastika (as a character 卐 or 卍) is a geometrical figure and an ancient religious icon in the cultures of Eurasia, used as a symbol of divinity and spirituality in Indian religions. In the Western world, it was a symbol of auspiciousness and good luck until the 1930s, when it became a feature of Nazi symbolism as an emblem of Aryan raceidentity and, as a result, was stigmatized by association with ideas of racism and antisemitism.
    This guy looks Asian. Nothing close to a German Neo-Nazi.
  6. To #1 – ujm.
    Not everyone agrees with your European shtetl mentality of being a silent, defenseless victim. It might not be your personal way, but please don’t speak for the whole klal, because nobody appointed you ambassador, and many Jews disagree with that outdated attitude which comes from a world that no longer exists.
  7. The fellow in question looks Thai. That’s the region where the Swastika originated where it’s still seen as a good luck and religious symbol.
  8. Reb Aharon deserves a big yasher koach. If we do not stand up against rishus and potential rishus, it causes others to think that it is okay to do these things. Hashem hates wicked acts and Reb Aharon was doing the ratzon Hashem. There is also a teshuva from the first Tzemach Tzedek #100 that we should take stands on things. As far as a sakanah goes, it is easily assessed and it did not look like he was in any sakana. He also did the right thing to publicize it. Kol Tuv, Reb Aharon and a tremendous yasher koach
  9. “hockintherock” Made a great point any intelligent adult should know that in the far east this is a symbol of art/religion/peace (example: Red Swastika Society etc. ) this guy clearly doesn’t look like a Neo Nazi (use your brains a poor immigrant barely speaks English is a Neo Nazi target not a member),
    We havto learn to cool down not jump from excitement when we get another opportunity to be on a viral clip.
