NJ Hate Watch: Zionists Ebrahim and Mathew Yehounatan of Flushing, NY

Threatening comments with racial slurs. And it turns out one of them threatened a woman with a knife. No, these characters weren’t going to slide by.

In April 2024, NJ based pro-Palestine groups and supporters got together for a regularly scheduled solidarity motorcade in Teaneck, NJ. While zionists and other racists have tried to cause issues at these events in the past, they have largely been manageable and have not posed a threat to participants safety. In this instance, however, two zionists were bent on viciously attacking Palestinians and pro-Palestine supporters.

As the motorcade started a dark colored Nissan approached, rolled down their windows, and a rear passenger began hurling racial slurs and spitting at the band of cars.

The driver of the vehicle then brandished a knife, dangling it out the front passenger side window while yelling slurs.

The zionists have now been successfully identified as Ebrahim and Mathew Yehounatan of Flushing, NY. Both Ebrahim and Mathew are related and live on 71st Street in Flushing, NY where they are a part of a larger Iranian Jewish community. At the time of publishing, employment information was not available for either.

According to local media, Ebrahim Yehounatan was recently arrested on hate-crime charges stemming from his attack on the April 2024 event. The state declined to prosecute Mathew Yehounatan or release his information to the public as he supposedly did not meet their threshold for an arrest. Local news media outlets have also failed to identify or expose Mathew Yehounatan’s role in the attack, so he has been able maintain his anonymity until now.

Looking closer into Mathew Yehounatan’s social media history, it is no surprise he and Ebrahim chose to hate crime individuals a part of the motorcade, as it reveals his true racist/violent tendencies.

Mathew Yehounatan’s vitriol often focuses on Palestinians and Black community members.

Given their actions in April 2024 and lengthy history of racist violence both Ebrahim and Mathew Yehounatan should be considered dangerous and unpredictable. It is advised if encountered in public that they are not approached and documented from afar.

2025 is a milestone year and we want to give a huge THANK YOU to all of our supporters who have been in the trenches with us for the past 25 years. A lot of groups and people we have dealt with since we started are long gone: Richard Barrett, Matt Hale, the Minutemen and others! But we are still here fighting the good fight, contending with the new generation's version of hate politics. There are trying times ahead, but we believe our reality would be even worse if we did not come together to do this work. If you value the research and reporting that we have done at One People’s Project and Idavox- and you want to see it continue- we hope you will consider helping to keep our mission fired up.
