Swedish police say that man attacked with iron bar for flying Israeli flag not racist attack

(Malmö) A 38-year-old man who has flown the flag of Israel outside his window was beaten up by a gang of youths when he went outside to confront them regarding them smashing his window.

Witnesses say he was somewhat upset at how a brick had been thrown through his window and, to be honest, he did have a knife on him. Anyway, the group he confronted managed to pull out an iron bar and beat him senseless.


The Swedish police, when they arrived, found no evidence that the group had thrown the brick, and that actually the reason somebody had thrown a brick through his window may not have been about the Israeli flag but rather due the man's anti-Iranian blog. To that end, the Swedish police have concluded that this wasn't a racist incident and that actually it was an isolated event.
