A Podcast Had Guests Calling on People to ‘Take Down’ and ‘Kill’ Jews — and Nothing Happened

Is a podcast guest in America permitted to call for the killing of Jews?
As far as I know, that’s incitement.
A random antisemitic female guest appeared on the Fresh and Fit Podcast with host Myron Gaines, whose real name is Amrou Fudl. The show has more than 1.5 million subscribers.
Gaines pretends to be an intellect, and he is not a very good actor. He is a coward and a fool.
Put aside that Gaines is the author of a book called, Why Women Deserve Less.
Gaines asked his guests: “What do you guys think about Hitler?”
Here’s how The Forward describes the now-deleted video:
The deleted video, from a segment titled “After Hours w/Girls,” included this exchange.
“What if the Jewish did something to the Germans that made them act a certain way, but nobody wants to talk about it? Like the Jews don’t want to take accountability,” said a woman on the six-person podcast panel, identified by Canary Mission as a recent high school grad named Suzette.
“They was up to something, so the Germans wanted to take them out. Like, it had to be something,” she continued.
“They started it,” another woman chimed in.
“How do we take them down?” co-host Walter Weekes asked.
“We gotta kill the motherf—ers,” responded a second woman, identified by Canary Mission as Kadriyanna James.
A clip of the guest calling on people to “kill the motherf—ers” can be found here.
We also hear someone say Jews are “selfish.”
Sadly, many foolish people will think this is great content — and many will agree with it.
A few years ago, there would have been repercussions for a host having this kind of show. Now, there will be none.
What started with Kanye West and continued with Candace Owens spewing conspiracy theories has now flowed into new territory. Antisemitism is no longer simply normalized; it is welcomed to get clicks, and is seen as cool.
It is true that podcast hosts can have wild opinions, but this is simply beyond the pale. Gaines had to know where this was going.
A guest goes on to say “the Jews did something” — but of course she doesn’t say what they did, because she knows she will get attention just by spewing hate against Jews.
Sadly, many of the viewers might think she is correct, simply because the podcast has millions of listeners — many of whom are uninformed.
A male guest says, “How do we take them down?” This guy is asking how to “take down” the Jews.
Someone else said “kill the mother-f-ers.”
How does the host not speak out against that? No other group in America has a show saying that they should be killed — only Jews, in 2025.
America is built on free speech, but you cannot call for killing people.
Just when I thought things could not get lower, they do. And of the other guests who remained silent, almost nobody would sit quietly as someone called for the killing of any other minority group in America.
Ironically, the female guest, who is Black, was defending a man who referred to Black people as inferior and said they were infecting the white race. Perhaps she should pick up a copy of Mein Kampf before rationalizing Hitler’s actions.
Still, how many people who watch this podcast will think this idiotic guest is correct?
Freedom of speech doesn’t extend to saying people should be killed. But of course the government won’t act — because Jews are the target.
Gaines will likely face few repercussions — who knows, it could even help his career. It’s utterly disgusting and disgraceful.

Security Warning to Israelis Vacationing Abroad Ahead of holidays

i24 News – Ahead of the Jewish High Holidays, Israel’s National Security Council (NSC) published the latest threat assessment to Israelis abroad from terrorist groups to the public on Sunday, in order to increase the Israeli public’s awareness of the existing terrorist threats around the world and encourage individuals to take preventive action accordingly.
The NSC specified that the warning is an up-to-date reflection of the main trends in the activities of terrorist groups around the world and their impact on the level of threat posed to Israelis abroad during these times, but the travel warnings and restrictions themselves are not new.
“As the Gaza war continues and in parallel with the increasing threat of terrorism, the National Security Headquarters stated it has recognized a trend of worsening and increasing violent antisemitic incidents and escalating steps by anti-Israel groups, to the point of physically harming Israelis and Jews abroad. This is in light of, among other things, the anti-Israel narrative and the negative media campaign by pro-Palestinian elements — a trend that may encourage and motivate extremist elements to carry out terrorist activities against Israelis or Jews abroad,” the statement read.
“Therefore, the National Security Bureau is reinforcing its recommendation to the Israeli public to act with responsibility during this time when traveling abroad, to check the status of the National Security Bureau’s travel warnings (before purchasing tickets to the destination,) and to act in accordance with the travel warning recommendations and the level of risk in the country they are visiting,” it listed, adding that, as illustrated in the past year, these warnings are well-founded and reflect a tangible and valid threat potential.
The statement also emphasized the risk of sharing content on social media networks indicating current or past service in the Israeli security forces, as these posts increase the risk of being marked by various parties as a target. “Therefore, the National Security Council recommends that you do not upload to social networks, in any way, content that indicates service in the security forces, operational activity, or similar content, as well as real-time locations.”

Israel Intensifies Gaza City Bombing as Rubio Arrives

Israeli forces destroyed at least 30 residential buildings in Gaza City and forced thousands of people from their homes, Palestinian officials said, as US Secretary of State Marco Rubio arrived on Sunday to discuss the future of the conflict.
Israel has said it plans to seize the city, where about a million Palestinians have been sheltering, as part of its declared aim of eliminating the terrorist group Hamas, and has intensified attacks on what it has called Hamas’ last bastion.
The group’s political leadership, which has engaged in on-and-off negotiations on a possible ceasefire and hostage release deal, was targeted by Israel in an airstrike in Doha on Tuesday in an attack that drew widespread condemnation.
Qatar will host an emergency Arab-Islamic summit on Monday to discuss the next moves. Rubio said Washington wanted to talk about how to free the 48 hostages – of whom 20 are believed to be still alive – still held by Hamas in Gaza and rebuild the coastal strip.
“What’s happened, has happened,” he said. “We’re gonna meet with them (the Israeli leadership). We’re gonna talk about what the future holds,” Rubio said before heading to Israel where he will stay until Tuesday.
ABRAHAM ACCORDS AT RISK
He was expected to visit the Western Wall Jewish prayer site in Jerusalem on Sunday with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and hold talks with him during the visit.
US officials described Tuesday’s strike on the territory of a close US ally as a unilateral escalation that did not serve American or Israeli interests. Rubio and US President Donald Trump both met Qatar’s Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani on Friday.
Netanyahu signed an agreement on Thursday to push ahead with a settlement expansion plan that would cut across West Bank land that the Palestinians seek for a state – a move the United Arab Emirates warned would undermine the US-brokered Abraham accords that normalized UAE relations with Israel.
Israel, which blocked all food from entering Gaza for 11 weeks earlier this year, has been allowing more aid into the enclave since late July to prevent further food shortages, though the United Nations says far more is needed.
It says it wants civilians to leave Gaza City before it sends more ground forces in. Tens of thousands of people are estimated to have left but hundreds of thousands remain in the area. Hamas has called on people not to leave.
Israeli army forces have been operating inside at least four eastern suburbs for weeks, turning most of at least three of them into wastelands. It is closing in on the center and the western areas of the territory, where most of the displaced people are taking shelter.
Many are reluctant to leave, saying there is not enough space or safety in the south, where Israel has told them to go to what it has designated as a humanitarian zone.
Some say they cannot afford to leave while others say they were hoping the Arab leaders meeting on Monday in Qatar would pressure Israel to scrap its planned offensive.
“The bombardment intensified everywhere and we took down the tents, more than twenty families, we do not know where to go,” said Musbah Al-Kafarna, displaced in Gaza City.
Israel said it had completed five waves of air strikes on Gaza City over the past week, targeting more than 500 sites, including Hamas reconnaissance and sniper sites, buildings containing tunnel openings and weapons depots.
Local officials, who do not distinguish between militant and civilian casualties, say at least 40 people were killed by Israeli fire across the enclave, a least 28 in Gaza City alone.

Turkey Warns of Escalation as Israel Expands Strikes Beyond Gaza

i24 News – An Israeli strike targeting Hamas officials in Qatar has sparked unease among several Middle Eastern countries that host leaders of the group, with Turkey among the most alarmed.
Officials in Ankara are increasingly worried about how far Israel might go in pursuing those it holds responsible for the October 7 attacks.
Israel’s prime minister effectively acknowledged that the Qatar operation failed to eliminate the Hamas leadership, while stressing the broader point the strike was meant to make: “They enjoy no immunity,” the government said.
On X, Prime Minister Netanyahu went further, writing that “the elimination of Hamas leaders would put an end to the war.”
A senior Turkish official, speaking on condition of anonymity, summed up Ankara’s reaction: “The attack in Qatar showed that the Israeli government is ready to do anything.”
Legally and diplomatically, Turkey occupies a delicate position. As a NATO member, any military operation or targeted killing on its soil could inflame tensions within the alliance and challenge mutual security commitments.
Analysts caution, however, that Israel could opt for covert measures, operations carried out without public acknowledgement, a prospect that has increased anxiety in governments across the region.
Israeli officials remain defiant. In an interview with Ynet, Minister Ze’ev Elkin said: “As long as we have not stopped them, we will pursue them everywhere in the world and settle our accounts with them.” The episode underscores growing fears that efforts to hunt Hamas figures beyond Gaza could widen regional friction and complicate diplomatic relationships.
