LOS ANGELES, CA – Tragedy struck the greater Los Angeles area as a 69-year-old Jewish man, Paul Kessler, lost his life following an altercation at a pro-Israel rally. The antisemitic attack took place on Sunday in Westlake Village, near Thousand Oaks, and has prompted an investigation by the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office, with the possibility of a hate crime being considered.

The incident unfolded during simultaneous pro-Israel and pro-Hamas/Palestine demonstrations at the intersection of Westlake Boulevard and Thousand Oaks Boulevard, where tensions were already running high due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Kessler was among the participants at the pro-Israel event.

According to witnesses and reports from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office, a verbal altercation escalated into a physical confrontation between Kessler and an unidentified pro-Hamas protester. During the altercation, Kessler fell backward, striking his head on the ground. Despite immediate medical attention and being rushed to a local hospital, Kessler succumbed to his injuries.

The cause of Kessler’s death was determined to be a blunt force head injury, with the Ventura County Medical Examiner’s Office classifying it as a homicide. The incident is believed to be isolated and not part of any larger coordinated effort.

Media reports that this is Paul with his wife, Cheryl, just moments before he was struck in the head

In response to this tragic event, Sheriff James “Jim” Fryhoff announced a press conference scheduled for Tuesday at 10 a.m. to address the recent developments and the circumstances surrounding Kessler’s death.

The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles issued a statement expressing their condolences for the victim and condemning the violence. The Federation labeled this incident as the fourth major antisemitic crime in Los Angeles this year alone, emphasizing that such violence has no place in a civilized society. They demanded safety for the Jewish community and pledged to do everything within their power to prevent future acts of violence.

Photos and videos circulated on social media, though the victim’s face was blurred, showed a man on the ground, bleeding from his head. The alleged attacker, described as a “pro-Palestinian protester,” reportedly threw a megaphone at Kessler during the altercation.

This tragic incident mirrors similar violence that has occurred at recent protests related to the Israel-Palestine conflict. Just last month, Dylan Mann, a Jewish freshman at Tulane University, had his nose broken and was beaten by a pro-Hamas protester wielding a megaphone.

As the investigation into this tragic event continues, law enforcement is appealing to the public for any witnesses or individuals who may have captured footage of the incident to come forward and assist in their inquiries.

  • “Legal experts say whether Trump’s court testimony in NY helped or hurt his case
    Jonathan Turley says the ‘fact is that these cases have only increased Trump’s popularity'”

    FUNNY HOW TRUMP IA ALWAYS IN COURT, BUT NOT ALL THE GENOCIDE CRIMINALS; FAUCI, GHEBREYESUS, BILL&MELINDA GATES, SOROS, BANCEL, BOURLA, SORIOT, SCHWAB, HARARI, VON DER LEYEN, MACRON, MARIN, NOHYNEK, ARDERN, TRUDEAU, ZELENSKY, SCHOLZ, MERKEL, etc, etc. THE GENOCIDE CRIMINALS MUST IMMEDIATELY BE HANGED FOR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY!

  • How is this an isolated incident when followers of thwe “Religion of Peace” claim they want to kill all Jews and have been actively engaged in that mission for centuries?

    • There does seem to be an incredible amount of “isolated” incidents; when do they coalesce into a movement?

  • Westlake used to be where people moved (40 years ago) to escape the depravity and crime in the greater Los Angeles area. They will ban megaphones, and this case will be pled down. Then the wannabe hamasshole will be sent to Camp Snoopy for rehab, halal meals, and pruno festivities. In a few years he will run for city councilman.

  • Israel has been fighting in the Middle East since 1948. A book published in 1990 by a former Mossad agent describes many Mossad operations. Very interesting read for us “Spook” geeks.

  • The suspect was wearing a hoodie and the hamasshole terror scarf. He had brown skin and beady eyeballs. Probably a Straight White Christian. /sarc

    • On the 11/08/2023 update, the suspect does not match the person that was video/photo on another site(described as suspect). This guy with a megaphone is much fatter and uglier. No hoodie.

  • the deceased should be added to the israel massacre count. u.s. condition is appalling, with known hate groups committing murder on our streets. the government authority in u.s. is unrecognizable with high tolerance for unassimilated hate. i guess the message here is government authority and civility is lost. we are on our own for protection from hate. if you have not seen hate protests then you must be asleep. the palestine flag flies with the swastika in america. the enemy walks among us and seeks to rob your freedom by force.

  • “Syrian migrant shot by Polish soldier”

    GOOD NEWS!
    WHY NOT EVERY ILLEGAL MIGRANT SHOT BEFORE?
    OH YES, THAT’S WHY, URINE VON DER LEYEN, MACRON AND MERKEL WOULD CRY BECAUSE THEY WOULDN’T HAVE THOSE CUTE CIRCUMCISED SYPHILITIC MUSLIMSHITS TO FUCK THEM!

  • What supporters of the so called “Palestinians”, Hamas and every other Islamic terrorist organization fail to understand is that the Quran DEMANDS that the Jews be slaughtered as they are “the descendants of apes and pigs.”
    Christians come next.

    You can’t defeat an enemy that you refuse to name, and you won’t defeat an enemy whose “Holy Book” calls for every unbeliever to be exterminated, unless you recognize that this “holy Book” is a manual for war and calls for the extermination of all who refuse to become Muslim.

    There is absolutely NO difference between Islam and the Nazi Party.
    In fact, Adolf Hitler LOVED Islam as he viewed it as a warrior religion.

  • contact your representative and demand the feds implement the dhs emergency alert system. this needs to stop, the alert will put local police authority’s on notice and force dissolution of the terror threat. this incident is related to the nationwide protest to eliminate jews via the open border policy for migrants. the perpetrator should have been deported with his family immediately. unrelated my a$$.
