Taught to Hate in the UK: British-Israeli Man Says Local Torah Class in England Justifies Gaza Civilian Genocide
In a chilling moment now circulating widely online, a British-born man who recently moved to Israel publicly justified the mass killing of Palestinian civilians — including over 20,000 children — and claimed he was taught to think this way in “Torah class… in England. Exactly.”
The comments came during a livestream hosted by Palestinian-American content creator Hamzah Saadah, in which the man declared that the killings in Gaza were “justified” because Palestinian children would “grow up to be Hamas.” When asked where he learned this way of thinking, he replied without hesitation:
“I learned this in Torah class… in England. Exactly.”
The guest — who initially identified as Israeli, but later clarified he had moved there from England — doubled down multiple times during the unscripted conversation. Saadah, visibly shaken, pressed him:
Hamzah: “The 20,000 children that were killed in Palestine. Is that justified?”
Guest: “Yeah, cuz they’re going to grow up to be Hamas. Exactly.”
Hamzah: “Did you learn this in England?”
Guest: “I learned this in Torah class… in England. Exactly.”
Hamzah: “You are brainwashed to the core. You are literally saying it’s okay for children to be killed in Palestine because they’re going to grow up to be [militants]. Are you crazy?”
The man’s remarks reflect not only a shocking disregard for civilian life but also appear to confirm the very claim the British media had just disavowed under pressure from Zionist lobby groups.
LBC Listener Silenced for Saying the Same Thing
Just days earlier, UK broadcaster LBC became embroiled in controversy when radio presenter James O’Brien read aloud a message from a listener named Chris. The message claimed that children in a Hertfordshire Jewish school were being taught that “one Jewish life is worth thousands of Arab lives” and that Arabs were described as “cockroaches to be crushed.”
O’Brien used the message to illustrate how mutual hatred is taught — but he quickly came under fire from pro-Israel groups including the Community Security Trust, Board of Deputies, and Jewish Leadership Council. The clip was deleted, and O’Brien issued an on-air apology:
“The message has understandably upset a lot of people, and I regret taking those unsubstantiated claims at face value. I am genuinely sorry for that.”
Hertfordshire’s Police and Crime Commissioner, Jonathan Ash-Edwards, wrote to LBC warning that the segment could provoke “further antisemitic incidents” and accused O’Brien of making a “conscious and deliberate choice” to air it.
But now, in an unprompted, unfiltered livestream interview, a British-Israeli citizen has said the same thing — and confirmed it was true in his own experience.
Random, Unfiltered — and All the More Revealing
Importantly, Hamzah Saadah does not select his guests. He uses OmeTV, a free global video chat platform that connects strangers randomly, with hundreds of thousands of users online at any given time. His interviews — featuring soldiers, settlers, students, and civilians — are drawn purely by chance, offering a statistically honest snapshot of Israeli public sentiment, especially among younger generations.
These are not spokespersons or staged personalities. They are ordinary people. And what they say — often with startling ease — speaks volumes.
This man wasn’t pressed into a corner. He volunteered these views. He enthusiastically repeated that the killing of Palestinian children was acceptable and grounded his logic in religious instruction received in England.
Legal Implications Under UK Hate Speech Law
The video not only exposes the ideological rot behind the ongoing genocide in Gaza — it may also expose legal liability for the individual involved and the British institutions he cited.
Under the UK’s Public Order Act 1986, incitement to racial hatred is a criminal offence. Section 18 prohibits the use of “threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour” intended or likely to “stir up racial hatred”. Justifying the killing of children — based on their ethnicity or nationality — could easily qualify.
If this individual returns to the UK, he may be subject to criminal investigation for inciting hatred.
Even more troubling is the suggestion that religious educators in the UK were responsible for instilling this worldview. If proven, the Jewish schools or Torah classes he attended could also come under scrutiny for institutional incitement — especially if they operate as registered charities or receive public oversight. The Department for Education, Ofsted, and the Charity Commission now face serious questions about whether they have failed in their duty to prevent radicalization and hate speech in faith-based education.
Silencing the Truth, Protecting the Powerful
The man’s livestream confession has renewed criticism of LBC’s decision to censor its listener and protect institutions from scrutiny. Critics now argue that the station’s apology — and the deletion of the segment — was not about responsible broadcasting but about capitulation to political pressure.
The fallout also echoes the recent silencing of Sangita Myska, who was abruptly removed from LBC after challenging an Israeli spokesperson live on air. Though legally barred from discussing the reasons for her departure, Myska later said:
“There are extremely onerous and lasting contractual restrictions that prevent me from discussing the circumstances… These restrictions remain in place indefinitely.”
Gary Lineker, too, was forced out of the BBC after 30 years for sharing a video criticizing Zionism — despite apologizing. In all cases, those who speak out about Israeli policy face professional retribution, while those who justify genocidal violence face no consequence.
Gaza in Freefall, and the Media in Denial
While British institutions scramble to suppress dissent, Gaza is being starved into submission. Humanitarian organizations, including Oxfam, Save the Children, and the World Health Organization, have issued dire warnings of mass famine, collapsed healthcare, and dying infants. Israeli forces have been accused of targeting aid convoys, bombing medical facilities, and deliberately blocking food deliveries.
Yet BBC presenters like Martine Croxall still amplify Israeli government claims that there is “no sign of famine.” The same media that apologizes for reading a message about hate speech now platforms denials of genocide.
The Digital Frontline Against Censorship
It is into this vacuum that Hamzah Saadah’s platform has emerged — disarming, informal, and deeply serious. Once known for viral gaming videos under the alias Absorber, Saadah now uses OmeTV to confront Israelis face-to-face, documenting the deep normalization of dehumanization.
And now, with this interview, he has done what no major UK journalist dared: captured proof that hate speech against Palestinians is not only real but being taught in British religious settings — and absorbed without question.
This isn’t journalism with euphemisms. This is raw truth.
The question is no longer whether this is happening.
The question is: What will the UK do about it?
