A kosher bagel store in Philadelphia owned by an Arab American is facing calls for its kosher certification to be canceled after the owner was accused of celebrating the murder of Israelis. The controversy has spread through Jewish communities and online forums, with a petition to withdraw the certification garnering over 2,000 signatures. The owner denies the accusations and insists that he does not hate Jews. The kosher certification agency has stated that the bagel store will continue to be certified under its supervision.
