    HAARETZ.com (http://bit.ly/1l7C5NV) reports that 54-year-old Arik Zenouda said he was attacked from behind by the Sudanese assailant who slammed him over the head with a metal tray and then began strangling him during the plane’s descent into Addis Ababa.

    “He hit me on the head with a metal tray, shouting ‘Allah Akhbar’ amd ‘Itbach al Yehud,” Zenouda said.

    Before losing consciousness Zenouda’s screams managed to draw the attention of the flight crew who intervened and detained the attacker until he was turned over to Ethiopian authorities.

    I wonder what the beginning of the story wss, no one just stands up especially on a flight having a go on someone for nothing. I assume that there was some earlier verbal exchange with 1 another, again thats my assumption, that’s not to judge the Sudanese YIMACH SHEMO’NIK for hitting the israeli man, and HOW did he get hold of a METAL tray on a flight, I’ve never seen such a thing o. A plan,, ,

    lets see the guy was a 54 yr old man i dont think he was looking for a fight .we have to wake up before its too late, this was obviously an anti-semitic attack and its going to keep happening whether in israel or europe or in crown heights.
