Comedian Jerry Seinfeld shot down an anti-Israel activist, quickly telling him he doesn’t “care about Palestine” when the online personality attempted to ambush him over the weekend, according to a clip posted on social media Sunday.
Instagram provocateur “Subway DJ” at first requested a selfie with Seinfeld that the Jewish celebrity agreed to outside an event celebrating the 50th anniversary of “Saturday Night Live.”
“Free Palestine,” the activist then said as he flashed a peace sign in the selfie with Seinfeld in the backdrop.
“Maybe?” Subway DJ then asked before the comedian offered a brief response, per the video.
“I don’t care about Palestine,” he said as he walked away with his wife Jessica.
“That’s sad,” the rabble-rouser said with an exaggerated frown before the video ended.
It’s believed the short clip – uploaded Sunday — was taken outside Radio City Music Hall as celebs converged for SNL’s special anniversary show, according to reports.
Seinfeld, 70, has been an unapologetic supporter of Israel since the Oct. 7, 2023 terror attack by Hamas on the Jewish state that led to a greater conflict in Gaza. The two sides are currently in the middle of a cease-fire.
Anti-Israel protesters have consistently targeted the “Seinfeld” star who has appeared unbothered by the commotion.
