SIGNS OF NAZI HATE ON D.C. CAMPUS

- By NICHOLAS McENTYRE and MEGAN PALIN Additional reporting by Katherine Donlevy

A horrific photo circulated on social media Friday of an anti-Israel protester toting a sign calling for the “final solution,” the Nazi plan to exterminat­e all Jews — in one of many displays of hatred at protests over the war in Gaza.

The unidentifi­ed agitator was seen mingling among students at George Washington University, carrying a huge Palestinia­n flag — and the sign with the expression Adolf Hitler used for the annihilati­on of the Jews.

The image sparked outrage from many shocked at a term used during the Holocaust.

“The parallels between this movement and actual Nazism is real and scary,” one X user said.

Another posted: “Just pure hatred.”

The image emerged as hundreds of protesters Thursday occupied the Washington, DC, campus, one of many schools swamped by anti-Israel action.

Across the pond at the University of Oxford, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was heckled as a “warmonger” by protesters, who warned they “aren’t f--king around anymore.”

The California Democrat was speaking to the Oxford Union when the two smartly dressed students stood up in front of her with a Palestinia­n flag, with others booing when they realized what was happening.

Pelosi — who called for peace in Gaza during her speech — continued trying to speak as the pair awkwardly stood in front of her at the podium, before they were booted by police as the audience applauded their removal, according to The Telegraph.

The group Youth Demand shared video footage while taking credit for the interrupti­on.

“Warmongers like Nancy Pelosi are not welcome on University campuses,” the group wrote.

Flag set on fire

Meanwhile, in the Big Apple, the NYPD is on the hunt for several hateful suspects who targeted victims holding Israeli flags this month, including a disturbing attack outside Columbia University where a man was pelted in the face with a rock, cops and sources said.

The latest attack took place near the Morningsid­e Heights campus just before 10 p.m. Saturday, the same night three students were arrested and another taken away on a stretcher amid fiery anti-Israel protests.

A 22-year-old man was near Amsterdam Avenue and West 116th Street with an Israeli flag when another man snatched it, police and sources said. A third stranger “then grabbed the flag and set it on fire,” police said.
