It is the protesters in Gaza who deserve our gratitude.
From blocking roads to protesting at campuses, they do it all. All of these things won’t stop Israel from destroying the Hamas terrorists who attacked their country and killed over 1,200 people in October 2023. They’re not only wrong about the topic in general, but also ineffective and wasting time. Like the climate activists who blockade roads and destroy art; they make people hate them even more.
If there’s a dumber thing than occupying campus or blocking roads, it’s to protest a comedian such as Jerry Seinfeld. What does he have to do about anything Israel may do? Seinfeld is not intimidated by these lunatics. He’s had people bother him in the past, and he explained that bothering a comic wouldn’t get them what they were looking for.
The hecklers came out again on Saturday night, while he was in Melbourne, Australia at the Rod Laver Arena.
One of them shouted, “You support genocide.” The radicals also like to chant “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be Free”, an antisemitic phrase. Seinfeld is quick to respond:
US comedian Jerry Seinfeld has hit back at pro-Palestine protesters after disrupting his show at Rod Laver Arena last night.

“Oh, you’re back. They’re back! They’re back! Seinfeld mockingly says, “I missed you.”
The audience booed them wildly.
Seinfeld continued to berate them.
He commiserated. “Oh, you’re doing poorly,” he said. “It’s hard for you.”
You and I share the same business. We are in the same business. We want people to see the world as we do. You’re not in the right place. You must be listening to me. “This is what you’re looking for.”
You need to tell the person running your organization that you just gave money to a Jew. That is not a good idea. You’ve got to come up with an even better plan.”
Oh, that was great. Did they think they could beat a comedian who was faster than them?
The audience was roaring with laughter. He’s correct, the hecklers were not well-planned. They are not. What do they expect him to do? You can roll over and say “Wow, those crazy people are right!” “I just didn’t know it before.” When they do this, they look really stupid.
