London – Newly surfaced video footage appears to show a man physically threatening a Jewish person on a London bus.
The man in the video can be seen shouting what appears to be slurs to the person recording.
At one point, the man appears to say: “You shouldn’t be in Palestine, you’re some fucking murderers…kill people’s children.”
A few moments later, he seems to say “Fucking Jew, he’s a fucking devil.”
