Comedian Jerry Seinfeld compared the "Free Palestine" movement to the Ku Klux Klan during a surprise appearance Tuesday at Duke University, saying both groups "dont like Jews."The "Seinfeld" creator attended a campus event for Omer Shem Tov, an Israeli hostage abducted by Hamas during the Oct. 7, 2023, terror attacks and held captive for 505 days. Seinfeld gave a brief introduction to Shem Tov before ridiculing anti-Israel activists, joking that at least the KKK was "honest" about their hatred for Jews."Free Palestine is, to me, just youre free to say you dont like Jews.

"So its actually compared to the Ku Klux Klan, Im actually thinking the Klan is actually a little better here because they can come right out and say, We dont like Blacks, we dont like Jews. Okay thats honest."In a statement to Fox News Digital, a Duke University spokesperson said the school did not endorse Seinfelds comments, as is the case for all outside speakers."Universities are places where diverse perspectives on difficult and sensitive subjects are explored in a safe and respectful environment. Duke does not preview nor approve the remarks of outside speakers, and their presence on campus should not be understood as an endorsement of their views," the spokesperson said.JERRY SEINFELD'S WIFE APPLAUDS DUKE CROWD WHO DROWNED OUT ANTI-ISRAEL PROTESTERS DURING COMMENCEMENT SPEECHThey continued, "Jerry Seinfeld was the surprise guest at the student-led event and introduced the program.
