The late Yosef Ben Meir Z"L is mentioned.

Relevant paragraph(s):

"You're a liar! Jew hater!" yelled Joseph Ben Mayer [sic], who said he was an Israeli living in Whitestone, Queens. Across the hall Yehuda Kaplan of Crown Heights shouted: "Jew hater! You're guilty of the murder of Yankel Rosenbaum!"

As Mr. Ben Mayer [sic] was evicted from the hall by the police, Mr. Dinkins, clearly angered, shot back: "Let me address the 'Jew hater' bit for a moment. I've heard that several times. Let me tell you who this Jew hater is."
