News about the incident. He said his words were not directed at Jewish people but at the country of Israel. He issued an apology for his behavior and said he  messed up  but  the message stands. 

A portion of the interview, lightly edited for clarity, can be read here:

Arndt:  This attack isn't directed at Jewish people. This attack was directed at the country of Israel. Everybody has equal rights in this country. Doesn't matter if you're Christian, Jewish, Muslim, unaffiliated, Hindu, whatsoever. Everybody has the same constitutional rights. If I were to win this district, I will stand up for everybody. I will represent Jewish people. I will represent Muslims, Christians, the unaffiliated. They all get equal protection under the law. This is not what this is about. I am not anti-anyone. I am anti-Israel, and I am anti the Israel government. 

Kraemer:  What about that video, that 30 seconds in which you are cursing at this person, again after something happened? 

Arndt:  I attacked the nation of Israel. I did not attack this person. 

Kraemer:  You said, 'F you', to this guy several times. 

Arndt:  I've said that to probably other people when I've got into altercations. I've said that to people when I've played sports and been in the locker room, OK? If somebody is going to threaten you and follow you, I didn't follow him. He followed me. Once again, I didn't follow him. He followed me. The video clearly shows that, right? 

Official statements

What they're saying:

The Wisconsin Green Party released a statement on the video, saying:

 The Wisconsin Green Party Coordinating Council has seen the video involving Matthew Arndt. The Wisconsin Green Party stands firmly for Palestinian human rights and an end to U.S. support for the war in Gaza. Shouting obscenities at someone in a parking lot doesn't advance that cause. We've spoken with Matthew, and he said he will address this directly. The Coordinating Council will wait for the police report before commenting further on what happened. 

FOX6 News also reached out to the Milwaukee Jewish Federation and each candidate in the race for Wisconsin's 6th Congressional District. This story will be updated if/when additional statements are provided.
