A YouTube video that claims anti-Semitism in Rockland County is reminiscent of Nazi Germany has sparked controversy in the area.
The five-minute video was produced by Benny Polatseck of Colossal PR on behalf of the Orthodox Jewish Public Affairs Council.
Ron Wilson, of Nanuet, is one of a handful of people offended by the statements. Wilson says it's not fair to compare the Holocaust to Rockland County.
Many say the video is simply not properly representing a bitter battle over the handling of the troubled East Ramapo School District. Marlene Whittaker says the video just leads to more division.
