A Georgia teacher has been arrested after allegedly shouting 'I should cut your mother******* head off,' at a pupil who criticized his Israeli flag.
The 7th-grade social studies teacher Benjamin Reese reportedly made the comments on December 7 at Warner Robins Middle School.
The alleged incident occurred after a Muslim student told Reese, 51, she found the Israeli flag in his classroom offensive.
Reese asked the unnamed female student if it had anything to do with Judaism, according to a police report seen by WMAZ.
She reportedly answered that she wanted to know why it was hanging there, and Reese told the student he was Jewish and had family members who lived in Israel.
The student allegedly told her teacher she found the flag offensive 'due to Israelis killing Palestinians.'
Reese then told the student she was being anti-Semitic, the police report stated.
Several witnesses later told the authorities they heard Reese shout at the student that 'he would kick her ******* ***, slit her god**** throat and drag her a** outside and cut her head off.'
A faculty member said she heard Reese say: 'You don't make an anti-Semitic comment like that to a Jew.'
An on-campus deputy spoke to several witnesses and reviewed security tape that showed Reese yelling down the hallway and heading back into his classroom.
The deputy then alerted the school's principal, Brett Wallace, to the alleged incident.
They spoke to Reese in his classroom together, according to the police report.
Reese denied making offensive comments but grew angry and 'kicked the door stopper in an aggressive manner.'
