The arrest of a Jewish teacher in America who threatened to kill his Muslim student
A teacher at a middle school in the United States threatened to behead his 13-year-old student after he expressed annoyance at the Israeli flag he brought to class.
CNN reported on Thursday that the police recently arrested the Jewish Benjamin Reis, 51, a seventh-grade teacher at a middle school in the US state of Georgia (southeast), for threatening his Muslim student to “cut off his head,” after the latter expressed his discomfort with the Israeli flag in the classroom.
The incident report issued by the authorities explained that the threat occurred on December 7, and that the teacher also directed insults at the student.
Local media reported that the teacher was released on bail of 7,500 dollars.
