If they had been Palestinians, they would be called terrorists...
An American immigrant was attacked and beaten Sunday night in Beit Shemesh by a gang of ultra-Orthodox zealots, in what appears to be an escalation of tension between religious groups in the city.
T., who is himself ultra-Orthodox, was kicked, beaten and threatened with further violence in an attack that landed him in the hospital. T.'s car windows were also smashed. T., who asked to go unnamed, has been active in trying to stem the recent tide of Haredi violence in the city.
"A bunch of goons, maybe 20 or 30 guys, attacked me - it was like a pogrom," he told Haaretz. "They kicked me, beat me, and then just left me there. Luckily, I am a strong guy and was able to get up and go to the hospital." Read On!

i’d like to know more about why they beat him up.
I heard they beat him up because he stuck up for the girls and others in the neighborhood who were being abused by the “modesty police”. This guy takes a stand for what is right, that Jews should not be attacking and hurting each other, so they turned on him. They posted propaganda against him in his own neighborhood. The guy should get a metal for being humane and following Torah principals. Instead they beat him. No wonder we have no Temple.
