Actor ‘absolutely horrified’ after apparently drunken, Jew-hatred rant

“Had I known I used this disgraceful language in the throes of a blackout, I would have spoken up sooner,” Haley Joel Osment told the New York Post.

Haley Joel Osment, an actor best known for his role in 1999’s The Sixth Sense, apologized after being recorded using an antisemitic slur during his arrest at a California ski resort earlier this month.

“What came out of my mouth was nonsensical garbage,” he told the New York Post. “I’ve let the Jewish community down, and it devastates me.”

In bodycam footage obtained by the Post, Osment referred to police officers as “Nazis” and called one a “fucking k*ke” during his arrest on April 8. He has been charged with public intoxication and possession of a controlled substance.

“I’m absolutely horrified by my behavior,” he told the Post. “Had I known I used this disgraceful language in the throes of a blackout, I would have spoken up sooner.”

Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu said: “After years in which sites were neglected or looted, Israel is making historical corrections.”
Using this phrase against Israel is no less absurd than labeling sport-hooliganism and violence at mass demonstrations in the West as officially sponsored, government-sanctioned violence.
“Nearly eight years after the shooting, our gratitude and admiration for the heroic bravery and selfless dedication of the first responders that day endures,” said U.S. Attorney Troy Rivetti.
Yitzhak Ben-Hebron escaped Arab riots as a child and later returned to rebuild the Jewish community in the city.
Army Maj. Gen. Jasper Jeffers III said that future conflicts will require allied special operations forces to integrate quickly and operate with compatible systems.
“The strength and resilience you and your families demonstrate throughout the recovery and rehabilitation process inspire the entire nation of Israel,” the IDF chief said.
