Banker Fired for Anti-Semitic Rant at Jewish American
A Wall Street banker, Kurush Mistry, has been fired after a video went viral showing him and his partner, Shailja Gupta, screaming "go back to your country" at a Jewish American man while they covered up posters advocating for the return of hostages kidnapped by Hamas terrorists. The incident, which occurred in New York City, has sparked a backlash, and Mistry has been dismissed from his position at Freepoint Commodities. The incident highlights the rise in anti-Semitic incidents in the US during the Israel-Hamas conflict, and it comes amid growing tensions and debates surrounding the conflict on university campuses and among high-profile executives.
