Beitar Jerusalem fans chant name of Rabin’s killer at match

Channel 2 television shows footage of fans of Beitar Jerusalem soccer team chanting the name of Yigal Amir, the extremist Jewish Israeli who shot and killed prime minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1995.

The incident took place during a match against Maccabi Tel Aviv at Bloomfield Stadium on Monday night.

The video, which appears to show dozens of yellow-clad Beitar fans joining in the chant, was filmed by someone at the game.
