‘You’re going to get beheaded one by one, you dirty Jews,’ London man threatens |
British police said Friday they were investigating after a video circulated online showed a man in London threatening to behead Jews “one by one.”
The man, who is accompanied by a group of others in the neighborhood of Tower Hamlets, yelled several anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian slogans before saying, “The Jews, you’re going to get beheaded one by one, you dirty Jews.”
The group was talking into a camera near a mosque on Whitechapel Road, and didn’t appear to be harassing a specific group of Jewish people in their area.
“Fuck Israel, big up Palestine, from the river to the sea,” said the man.
Many Israeli officials and Jewish organizations have characterized the phrase “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” as antisemitic and a call for Israel’s destruction.
Another man in the crowd appeared to try to get the man to stop speaking. It was unclear if they were known to one another.
