The London Metropolitan Police say they are looking into an apparent employee who said those supporting Israel in its war against Hamas should be investigated for hate crimes and extremism.

In a post circulating on social media, the woman allegedly wrote: “I think at this point, if anyone openly agrees with the war in Gaza, they should be called out as Islamophobic and inciting hatred against Muslims. That should be investigated as extremism.”

She is listed on LinkedIn as a “Met Police Program Facilitator and Project Manager.”

The woman added: “Whether the [counterterrorism] world decides to act fairly and proportionately and treat IDF support as an extremist ideology, I don’t know.”

The Met Police tells the Mail Online it is aware of the post and is investigating.
