Jewish comedian Jerry Seinfeld was heckled during his show Saturday night, but he took it in stride and kept the jokes coming. “Jew-haters spice up the show,” he cracked.

Leftists on social media are trashing the comic Sunday, calling him a “monster” and accusing him of endorsing genocide because he supports Israel as they fight for survival in the war against the terrorist Hamas organization. But who in this situation is the monster, the funny guy just trying to entertain an audience, or the unhinged freak screaming in the middle of a show?

Seinfeld was performing in Virginia when a pro-Palestinian protester proceeded to stand up and shout insults towards the "Seinfeld" creator, calling him a "genocide supporter."

"Save the children of Gaza! No more American tax dollars for genocide!" the protester yelled.

The audience wasn't having it though:

Audience members quickly began booing the heckler and demanded that he "shut up and get out."

"You should be ashamed of yourself! You should all be ashamed of yourselves!" the protester kept shouting to the audience.

I agree with the crowd: "Shut up and get out." Watch:

Seinfeld didn’t miss a beat, though.

Seinfeld was heard commenting, "This is fun. I like this. I think your message is really resonating with the crowd. People seem to be on your side."

"How dare you support a genocide!" the protester responded.

"I like it when the Jew-haters spice up the show," Seinfeld joked.

Eventually, a fight broke out, and a man in the audience held the nutcase in a headlock until security took him out of there. The crowd was heard chanting “Jerry, Jerry!” as he was hauled off. In all, eight demonstrators eventually had to be escorted out. 

Duke students also chanted "Jerry! Jerry!" as Blue Devils booed demonstrators who tried to ruin the university’s commencement ceremonies on May 12:

Seinfeld kept his cool during that situation, too, and went on to deliver an excellent address. RedState’s Bonchie liked what he had to say:

The left is losing its mind on social media over Seinfeld’s mocking of the protesters, but he hasn’t been shy about his support for Israel. Two days after the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attack where terrorists raped, tortured, and killed some 1,200 innocent victims, Jerry posted on Instagram, “I stand with Israel. I lived and worked on a Kibbutz in Israel when I was 16 and I have loved our Jewish homeland ever since."

"My heart is breaking from these attacks and atrocities. But we are also a very strong people in our hearts and minds."

That is the part all these pro-Hamas protesters keep forgetting—that Hamas committed unspeakable atrocities, starting this war, and still holds hostages. If they released them all, a ceasefire might come quickly and this awful conflict could come to an end. That's how you save the children of Gaza.

But they won’t, because they're terrorists, and that’s what all these demonstrators across the world are cheering for. Seinfeld is on the right side of this one.
