The BBC, using a hidden camera as part of a larger corruption investigation, caught a British Member of Parliament calling an Israeli soldier “a bloody Jew.” Member of Parliament Patrick Mercer felt comfortable enough to share his unvarnished opinion of Jews while speaking to a reporter for the network’s investigative program Panorama who was posing as a lobbyist. In the secretly-taped video, Mercer describes a recent trip to Israel where he visited an intelligence facility. On entrance, he was approached by a security guard. This is how Mercer described the soldier to the British reporter: “An 18-year-old girl, wearing a uniform, with her sort of hair in plaits, and crazy jewelry and open-toed sandals, with a rifle up my nose,” he said. And this was Mercer’s answer, in his own words: “Who the f**k are you, you know? ‘Well I’m a soldier.’ Are you? You don’t look like a soldier to me. You look like a bloody Jew.”The BBC, using a hidden camera as part of a larger corruption investigation, caught a British Member of Parliament calling an Israeli soldier “a bloody Jew.” Member of Parliament Patrick Mercer felt comfortable enough to share his unvarnished opinion of Jews while speaking to a reporter for the network’s investigative program Panorama who was posing as a lobbyist.
