Radio magnate Howard Stern went off on a caller to his show last week who criticized Israel's actions during its current offensive against Hamas militants in Gaza.
"Israel is at fault," said Hanzi, a regular Pakistani caller to Stern's show which broadcasts from Sirius XM satellite radio, according to the Times of Israel. "Zionists run Israel," Hanzi said.
"Oh F--- off," the shock jock said before going off on the caller. "I don't want to hear any anti-Semitism today. Jews get enough s--- all over the world."
Stern and his co-host Robin Quivers listen to the caller rant for another few seconds before Stern ends the call. Stern then offers listeners a brief lesson on his version of how Jewish people ended up in Israel.
"People forget history. Jews were being executed and killed and they went over to Israel," Stern said. It was a desert that nobody wanted, according to the DJ.
"The Palestinians are mad at the Israelis," Stern continued." "Instead of being mad at the f------ terrorists running their so-called country, who are raping the country, taking all of the aid the United States actually gives to them- that, they're not angry with.
"They're angry with Israel."
Israel and Hamas have exchanged rocket fire on and off ever since the conflict began 15 days ago with no end in sight. Right before Israel began the offensive, three Israeli teenagers were found murdered in the West Bank city of Heborn last month. Israel blamed Hamas for the killings and increased operations against the militants.
In return, Hamas stepped up rocket launches into Israel, The Washington Post reported.
Stern went on to comment about the current state of the world where everyone has a problem with everyone else, Jewish people included.
"If the Jews could move to Mars they would. They get it- nobody wants Jews," said Stern, who is Jewish.
"We've heard it all."
