Many critics say Pro-Palestinian agitators have tried to force their political views on people who don’t want anything to do with them. The surge of anti-Israel sentiment on college campuses has spread far and wide as the protesters kept causing unrest problems.
The good news is, there are people willing stand up to this level of racism that can spread like a cancer if left unchecked. Simple gestures of support for Israel have grown into all out counter-attacks against anti-Semitism.
A silver lining in all this hate against Israel is when the agitators get shamed with a comedic tirade: One of the legends of comedy made certain a recent anti-Israel agitator didn’t walk away without facing an onslaught of comedic responses.
From the Daily Caller:
Comedian Jerry Seinfeld, who is Jewish, responded to a pro-Palestine heckler Sunday at a stand-up show in Sydney, Australia as the crowd cheered him on.“Oh! We have a genius, ladies and gentlemen. He solved the Middle East! He solved it!” Seinfeld exclaimed as the audience roared. “It’s the Jewish comedians — that’s who we have to get! They’re the ones doing everything!”
“Go ahead, keep going!” Seinfeld urged the heckler. “They’re going to start punching you in about three seconds, so I would try to get all of your genius out so we can all learn from you.”
The verbal exchange took place during Seinfeld’s bit onstage at Qudos Bank Arena. The anti-Israel demonstrator tried to trip up the comedian who worked the protester’s interjection into his routine, sending his audience in hysterics.
Seinfeld is a master at working the crowd, which clearly outnumbered the heckler who was escorted out by security while still chanting, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”
Seinfeld continued to mock the protester as the agitator was dragged from the venue.
“You’re really influencing everyone here. We’re all, we’re all on your side now,” Seinfeld teased. “Tomorrow we will read in the paper: ‘Middle East 100% Solved Thanks To Man At The Qudos Arena Stopping Jew Comedian.’ They stopped him, and everyone in the Middle East went, ‘Oh my God, let’s just get lost. We can’t do that.’”
This isn’t the first time Seinfeld has faced pro-Palestine protesters. The Jewish comedian was giving a commencement speech at Duke University last month when dozens of anti-Israel demonstrators tried to make a spectacle by walking out of the event.
Seinfeld’s deft handling of the heckler and the response from the crowd gave hope that people around the world don’t want to deal with the so-called ideals promoted by these agitators.

- Jewish comedian Jerry Seinfeld battled a heckler during his stand-up show in Australia.
