London: Fashion designer John Galliano is facing more trouble after a video showing him engaged in a new anti-semitic rant and praising Adolf Hitler has surfaced online.

The British designer was arrested last Thursday over accusations he hurled insults at two strangers in a Parisian bar, which led him to be suspended from the fashion house Christian Dior.

The new video shows the 50-year-old at the same bar, saying, "I love Hitler." He then tells a woman, "People like you would be dead. Your mothers, your forefathers, would allbe gassed."

His tirade was caught on camera by a friend of the people he was insulting - who were French and Italian, but not Jewish, reported Sun online.

After stating he loves Hitler and making the gassing remark, a woman is heard saying, "Oh my God" before asking slurring Galliano if he had a problem.

"With you. You're ugly," he said.

Last Thursday Galliano allegedly insulted Geraldine Bloch, 35, and threatened to kill her pal Philippe Virgitti, 41, in La Perle Bar. Bloch told cops he called her a "dirtyJew face".

Galliano has launched legal action against the pair for defamation.
