Viral video footage shows Seldowitz harassing various Palestinian food cart operators about the war in Gaza, stating that he wishes even more than just 4,000 children in besieged Gaza were dead right now. Seldowitz approached and harassed these Palestinian men numerous times – here is one video clip of several depicting Seldowitz's behavior:

According to reports, Seldowitz repeatedly approached the Q Halal Cart on 83rd and Second Avenue in Manhattan to harass the various Palestinian men who runs it. Seldowitz was heard celebrating the Gaza genocide and accusing the men of supporting terrorists.
At first, the street cart operators felt intimidated and did not want to contact law enforcement, fearing retaliation. They did, apparently, try to call the NYPD numerous times afterwards but were told that "there is nothing they can do because it is free speech."
"We never have any trouble with anyone," stated Sam, an Egyptian immigrant who works at the cart. "We have been nice to the homeless in the community, too. Every day we give away free food when we have leftovers."
Seldowitz is now facing one count of aggravated harassment in the second degree, harassment, hate crime / stalking, stalking to cause fear and stalking at place of employment.

Seldowitz also spent entire year harassing female Russian diplomats
As a little more background, Seldowitz worked as acting director for the National Security Council South Asia Directorate under Obama, as well as deputy director and senior political officer in the U.S. State Department's Office of Israel and Palestinian Affairs from 1999 through 2003.
More recently, Seldowitz worked as foreign affairs chair in Gotham Government Relations. He is also a senior consultant in humanitarian diplomacy at GDC Inc., a logistics company that services areas impacted by war and natural disasters.
"My company is like a war zone Uber / UPS for people and goods," stated GDC CEO Moti Kahana to the The Jerusalem Post back in the summer about his company and Seldowitz's role in it.
"I can be here on my farm directing an operation in the Middle East. We have 13 employees, including Stuart Seldowitz, who worked at the State Department during the Obama administration and is our humanitarian diplomacy senior consultant."
Seldowitz cannot be that much of a humanitarian based on his real-life comments and behavior towards Palestinian food cart vendors. From the heart the mouth speaks, and Seldowitz's heart would seem to be anything but humanitarian, at least towards Palestinians.
Prior to all this, Seldowitz routinely harassed female Russian diplomats, and even tried to "menace the dog" of Russia's ambassador to the United Nations, Dmitry Polyanskiy.
"He's a personification of the marriage between rank bigotry and the axiomatic extremism of cross factional U.S. foreign policy consensus," commented Grayzone about who Seldowitz really is, citing an ambassador.
