Seinfeld dismisses anti-Israel influencer after the Knicks playoff game

Comedian Jerry Seinfeld was approached by an influencer asking for a "Free Palestine" statement following a thrilling New York Knicks playoff victory at Madison Square Garden. The influencer, FinesseFave, who has several hundred thousand followers, pushed a microphone towards Seinfeld, asking, “What up, Seinfeld? What up? Can we get a ‘Free Palestine’?” Seinfeld's response was brief and dismissive: “Ha-ha. It doesn’t exist,” before he walked away.

What up, Seinfeld? What up? Can we get a ‘Free Palestine’?

The streamer shared the video of the encounter on TikTok, captioning it, “Clown hasn’t been relevant in decades anyway.” This incident is the latest in a series of public encounters where Seinfeld has been confronted due to his public support for Israel, particularly following the October 7 Hamas attack in 2023.

Ha-ha. It doesn’t exist.

In February 2025, Seinfeld was approached outside Radio City Music Hall by an anti-Israel activist, to whom he stated, “I don’t care about Palestine.” Earlier, in June 2024, an anti-Israel heckler interrupted his show in Sydney, Australia. Seinfeld responded to the heckler by saying, “We have a genius, ladies and gentlemen. He solved the Middle East. It's the Jewish comedians; that's what we have to get.” The audience applauded his retort.

These instances have not deterred Seinfeld. In December 2023, he visited Israel, touring the aftermath of the Kibbutz Be’eri massacre and meeting with survivors. He also visited Hostages Square in Tel Aviv. During that visit, he expressed pride in being an "ambassador for spreading the truth throughout the world."
