US Senator Ted Cruz on Monday delivered a presentation condemning anti-Israel protests on college campuses, during a US Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on hate crimes.
During Cruz’s presentation, an antisemitic agitator shouted, “F—ing Jews and the Israelis themselves!”, apparently angry at Cruz for focusing on antisemitism.
“Talk about the 40,000 [casualties in Gaza]. Talk about all these people. Why is [this presentation] about antisemitism? F— the law,” the agitator said before being escorted out by Capitol Police.
“We now have a demonstration of antisemitism,” Cruz responded.
“Fucking Jews…fuck Israelis.” The Senate Judiciary Committee has refused to hold a hearing on antisemitism for the last year. They held one today on “all forms of hate.” It was interrupted by horrific antisemites. Maybe now the Senate will take antisemitism seriously?! pic.twitter.com/Yh6Wi2cJlc
