If a lot of non-Jews we’re impressed/surprised that a Jewish couple moved over to make room for another, (of any religion), I’d be offended

Let us hope

that the mothers milk doesnt contain the hate that many of them feed to their children. I nice Kiddush Hashem. Yasher Koach to the respectable couple and to the woman who noticed and posted.

good to hear good news

It’s refreshing to see good news…. even if it’s a sufek s’feka. I think the Arab would move over for the Jews as well. Arabs happen to be sensitive people… their politics and religion makes the monsters among them rulers. I remember in Israel before the insane ‘peace’ process began. The roads were full of Arab workers who were very friendly and helpful.

The big deal is that regardless of what was done or not done that a lot of non-jews saw this scenario & Yidden in a positive light for a change & for whatever reason were encouraged by it. That is a BIG deal if you’re aware of how Jews are generally portrayed in the media nowadays!

whats the deal

A non jewish 20 yr old woman gave up her seat to a woman with a child. She ended up standing next to a terrorist on the train who assumed she was a jew and stabbed her to death. The terrorist was grabbed before he could kill anyone else. She ended up dying rather than a jew. All because she gave up her seat

Lol

Nice gesture….folks…go to ‘Google’ (etc.) and
type in: ‘The Three Stages of Islam.’ The host claims, in this three part video series, that most American Muslims do not know how very aggressive Islam really is.

sooooooo nice to see

We’re all human at the end of the day, and most of us are good at heart.

That’s so wonderful! Good people can come from any demographic 😊.

We were in Yerushalayim during Pesach. My daughter was on crutches & one man stood up for her on the light-rail. Only after did we hear him speak in Arabic. Who knew?

Pathetic

We live in crazy times if moving over on your seat is considered remarkable

I WONDER

I wonder if number 2 can just for a moment not assume the worst in people and appreciate the positive message of this article/post. Yes, there are many muslim women in NY who would scoot over so a Jewish woman can nurse her baby.

bottle in hand
April 19, 2017 8:20 am

she isn’t nursing , making room? i think edging away more likely!
besideds who asked them if they want their faces splashes actors the media??

Naturally

For a couple like this one its only natural.
That is another act of goodness and kindness.
Shows what one good deed can do…

Like a breath of fresh air,
April 19, 2017 7:42 am

is this article that made the news with a positive, healthy slant on the Jewish people.

I WONDER
April 19, 2017 7:35 am

I wonder if the Muslim woman would have done the same for the Hasidic woman?????

bravo
