BBC's 'We are British Jews' trailer prompts antisemitic comments on YouTube

“At best these people have split loyalties. At worst they are loyal to Israel first, or entirely”, one post said.

Another quoted a verse from the New Testament which is closely associated with Christian antisemitism: "Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie."

Another commenter said: “You can't really be both Jewish and British simultaneously. It's one or the other, choose your tribe.”

In response to one commenter asking “If you love Israel so much why don't you move there?”, another person responded “because the embassy pays them to infiltrate the labour party and create a pro-Israel lobby in the UK, and around the world. Al-jazeera made a documentary on it.” However, a third antisemitic account then claimed that Al Jazeera itself “is a Zionist psyop like RT.”

The first episode of We Are British Jews airs at 9pm on Tuesday on BBC 2.
