Former US State Department employee and national security official Stuart Seldowitz was recorded on video harassing a food cart vendor in Manhattan, New York, saying that killing 4,000 Palestinian children “wasn’t enough”.

In a video posted on X, Seldowitz can be seen taking pictures of the vendor and berating him with Islamophobic comments.

Despite the vendor asking him to leave, Seldowitz continues to hurl insults and says, “If we killed 4,000 Palestinian kids, you know what? It wasn’t enough.”

Gotham Government Relations, with which Seldowitz was associated, posted on X of their decision to cut all ties with him following the videos which surfaced Tuesday.
