Responding to the spike in domestic anti-Semitic assaults by alleged pro-Palestinian activists following the terrorist attacks launched against Jews in Israel in recent weeks, a former official on the Biden 2020 presidential campaign argued that Jews should take off or hide items which publicly identify them as Jews — such as kippot or Stars of David — if they are fearful of being targeted.
Aaron Keyak, whose Twitter and LinkedIn bio explain that he “led Jewish engagement for the Biden-Harris campaign and transition,” wrote, “It pains me to say this, but if you fear for your physical safety take off your kippah and hide your magen david. Obviously, if you can, ask your rabbi first,” according to The Daily Wire.
