“Zionist pig” was just one of the antisemitic insults hurled at Israel supporters by tens of thousands of London pro-Palestine demonstrators on Saturday, The Telegraph announced.
According to The Telegraph, the pro-Palestine marchers started shouting, “Khaybar, Khaybar, oh Jews, the army of Mohammed will return,” which is believed to be a threat to Jews and Israelis.
The rally cry was directed at Stop the Hate, a Jewish activist group.
One of the pro-Palestinian marchers made a Hitler salute at the Israel supporters, resulting in his arrest by the Metropolitan Police. The man, aged 79, was taken to a police station on suspicion of a public order offense.

According to organizers of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), the rally was one of the biggest since the start of the war.
In total, the Met Police announced it arrested eight people, including for public order offenses, breaching conditions, criminal damage, and support for a proscribed organization.
