Arab-Israeli activist Yoseph Haddad gets into a scuffle with California House candidate

In a video later released on social media, candidate Dennis Feitosa can be seen grabbing at Haddad's hand as Haddad gestures while speaking, as the two fought verbally.

Israeli-Arab activist Yoseph Haddad engaged in a physical confrontation with California Congressional candidate Dennis Feitosa on Monday. The altercation occurred after Haddad was challenged while filming a podcast titled Digital Social Hour. In the video footage, Feitosa is seen grabbing Haddad's hand as they verbally exchanged heated words, with Feitosa accusing Haddad of supporting child killing and genocidal acts.

Haddad responded by taunting Feitosa, saying "you can't do anything, my brother," before the two men collided heads. Haddad was subsequently separated by others present. Haddad alleged that Feitosa attempted to physically assault him, claiming he was merely participating in a debate against anti-Israel activists.
