Story

Jerry Seinfeld was interrupted on stage by protesters for the second time. During his comedy show in Norfolk, New Jersey, a person shouted out while he was performing. The crowd cheered for Jerry. This happened because the protesters were against Israel's actions in Gaza. Earlier, students walked out during his speech at Duke University for the same reason. Jerry mentioned his Jewish background during the speech, which got applause. Outside the stadium, students supporting Gaza protested. In December, Jerry visited a kibbutz and supported Israel publicly. During a show in Norfolk, Virginia, a protester stood up and shouted 'free Gaza' at Jerry Seinfeld. The protester accused Jerry and the audience of supporting genocide. Another person in a green shirt attacked the protester and put him in a headlock. Security guards broke up the fight and escorted the protester out. Jerry Seinfeld has expressed his support for Israel and the Jewish people in the past.
