Vile NYC subway anti-Semite filmed ripping at Jewish woman’s hair while making slur about eating children
A New York woman was caught on camera shouting anti-Semitic slurs before allegedly pulling the hair of a Jewish passenger on the subway.
Police have identified Diana Smith of the Bronx, the woman who allegedly launched the heinous attack by making hateful remarks on Sunday. According to The New York Post.
Smith allegedly attacked a 23-year-old Jewish woman from the Upper West Side while on a crowded train in Lower Manhattan at 2:15 p.m.
In a video posted on social media, Smith, wearing a camouflage jacket, can be seen standing on the train and shouting: ‘Jews are eating children!’
Smith then appears to address the 23-year-old woman directly, shaking her head and smilingly saying, ‘You’re a Jew, I can smell the kids.’
The video then shows the unbalanced woman, who allegedly reaches towards the victim and continues shouting ‘Jews are eating children’, while bystanders can be heard gasping for breath.
A few more train passengers tried to calm the situation, but Smith continued shouting: ‘It’s okay for Jews to eat children, but I can’t drown him now.’
“I just got mugged,” the young victim said as he turned the camera on himself before turning it on Smith.

The victim, a Montreal-born nurse who asked to remain anonymous, told the Post there was only one stop left on the train when Smith boarded.
The Bronx woman allegedly began warning a couple about what she claimed were the ‘dangers of Jews stealing wealth’.
Smith allegedly said: ‘You can always see the reflection of a Jew,’ then turned towards the 23-year-old and looked at him, smiling eerily, according to the victim.
‘I decided at that moment that I didn’t really want to show fear in the face of this, so I looked at him and said, “So you see my reflection?”
“And he said, ‘Yes, I smell you too,'” the Jewish woman told the press.
Some of the abuse was caught on camera, but the victim claimed Smith choked her and pushed her to the ground after her phone was taken away from her.
The Jewish woman added that her hair was pulled so forcefully that a lock of it was ripped off her scalp.
The victim said no one intervened with Smith’s behavior until ‘it was too late.’
While the 23-year-old ran away from the train to call the police at the next stop, another train driver pressed the emergency button.
The victim told the NY Post that he also suffered a concussion from the ordeal.

‘When I had to diagnose it a lot of people said: ‘Oh, we saw what it was, are you okay?’
‘And that was extremely triggering for me because of course I’m not okay. “I was thinking, ‘I’m not in Nazi Germany,'” the woman told the press.
The Jewish woman said she suffered a concussion from this incident.
“He is pure evil, but he had the presence of mind to know that I was Jewish,” the victim said.
