Alec Baldwin got caught up in the middle of a heated confrontation with anti-Israel protestors in New York City on Monday.
The actor was seen in a video near West 29th Street as a mob crowded around him demanding to know if he supported Palestine or Israel.
He was guarded by the cops as he tried to access a locked door, but he struggled to ignore the demonstrator’s ongoing remarks.
“I support peace for Gaza,” he told demonstrators.
The ‘Departed’ actor’s response angered protestors, who immediately started shouting profanities at him and attempting to inch closer.
“Shut your f*cking mouth, you have no f*cking shame,” one of the demonstrator shouted at the actor, while another added, “Go f*ck yourself.”
A video of the star is making rounds on the internet wherein he can be seen losing his cool at a protestor.
"That's a stupid question…"

He can be heard saying, “Because I’m in Hollywood?” while slightly pushing the unidentified man. “You ask stupid questions. Ask me a smart question.”
The cops were quick to intervened and as the 65-year-old walked away he said, “Shut the f*ck up.”
