Original Note:
Headline is misleading. An audience member objected that Paul Currie was wearing Palestinian and Ukrainian Flags. In response, the comedian asked the audience member to leave. According to a witness, "Mr Currie did not use the words "Jewish", "Judaism" or "Zionism"." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-68290650.amp https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20240214-irish-comedian-tells-israelis-to-get-out-for-not-backing-gaza-ceasefire/ https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/paul-currie-soho-theatre-london-jewish-antisemitism-israel-b1138991.html
