One of the bar patrons answers: “Because we hate the f***ing Jews.”

Another replies: “The Israelis are scum. Killing children, killing weans.”

A man wearing a high-visibility vest states: “The only thing Hitler did wrong was he didn’t kill enough f***ing Jews.”

The same patron adds: “They’re the scourge of the world, the scourge of the Earth.”

DUP leader Arlene Foster, in a tweet, described the comments as “disgusting”.

She added: “The small Jewish community in Northern Ireland will always have my support and that of all right thinking people.”
