Comedian Jerry Seinfeld slammed a crowd of onlookers who were ejected from a show in Sydney, Australia on Sunday for shouting anti-Israel slogans.
“Ladies and gentlemen, we have a genius here! He’s solved the problem of the Middle East! He’s solved it! Jewish comedians are the ones we need to get,” Seinfeld said in a mocking voice. “They’re the ones doing it all!”

As he left, the man shouted, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!” and repeated his genocidal calls for the destruction of Israel.
“So you really do influence people, and we’re all on your side, because you expressed your opinion so well and in the right place,” Seinfeld said sarcastically, to laughter and cheers.
“Tomorrow the papers will say, ‘The Middle East problem is 100 percent solved … thanks to the man who stopped a Jewish comedian,'” Seinfeld said.
Seinfeld has been outspoken in his support for Israel since the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attacks. He visited Israel to show solidarity, and his wife donated money to a pro-Israel counter-protest at a pro-Palestinian “encampment” at the University of California, Los Angeles in April.
Last month, anti-Israel graduates at Duke University walked out of the auditorium after Seinfeld was awarded an honorary doctorate at the university’s commencement ceremony.
