Up to 7,000 rabid anti-Israel protesters storm NYC on Labor Day, light flares and set off smoke bombs; White House spox chastises ‘No place for antisemitism’
|
[NYPOST] Up to 7,000 unruly anti-Israeli protesters— including some proudly waving Hamas flags — stormed through the Big Apple on Labor Day, lighting flares and setting off smoke bombs as they marched toward the heart of the city.
The chaotic demonstrators gathered at Union Square in Manhattan in the early afternoon and began their raucous march to Washington Square Park.
Video footage shows NYPD officials attempting to halt the march, only to be shoved aside by a few of the demonstrators.
Blue and red flares filled the air with smoke as the group marched on.
The crowd, which law-enforcement sources said hit around 7,000 at one point, waved Hamas terrorist flags along with Palestinian, Syrian, Iranian and Hezbollah banners, chanting ''Free Palestine!'' and ''Resistance is justified when people are occupied.'' Hezbollah is a Lebanese terror group that has been fighting with the Palestinians against Israel in the Gaza war.
One protester waved a traditional Muslim keffiyeh scarf to block a TV camera, while another called a news crew ''a disgrace'' to the US.
A counter-protester with an Israeli flag was berated by the crowd.
''Throw it away, and put that piece of s—t in the garbage,'' an anti-Israel demonstrator yelled. ''Say it loud, say it clear, we don't want Zionists here!''
Others called the counter-protesters ''baby-killers.''
A New Yorker who pedaled up on a Citi Bike tried to stand up to the anti-Israel mob — only to be booed and cursed out.
''I just think they're wrong,'' the man, who only wanted to be as identified as Bruce, told The Post. ''I think that nobody is pushing back. You gotta push back respectfully. I think they're misinformed.''
| Misinformation is not their problem, truly. It’s simply that, like the original Nazis, they enjoy being evil. |
Four people were arrested, law-enforcement sources said.
The mass protest is just the latest show of disorder by anti-Israeli marchers since the Jewish state retaliated for the sneak attack on Israel by Hamas terrorists on Oct. 7 — with protests spreading to college campuses in the city and throughout the nation.

White House blasts NYC anti-Israel protest where some waved Hamas flags
[IsraelTimes] The White House rips into an anti-Israel protest that was held earlier today in New York and included the waving of flags of the Hamas

terror organization.
Seven thousand people attended the protest,
only
four of whom were arrested after clashing with police.
A show of farce.
"As President Biden and Vice President Harris have said, there is absolutely no place in America for the poison of antisemitism — none," White House spokesperson Andrew Bates says in a statement to The Times of Israel.
"They and the entire Biden-Harris Administration condemn any individual associating with the repugnant terrorist organization Hamas."
"It is especially heinous to express support for Hamas on the same day as the funeral for an innocent American hostage who they brutally murdered," Bates adds, referring to Hersh Goldberg-Polin whose body was recovered by the IDF over the weekend after his Hamas captors killed him along with five other hostages.
"This is a moment for all Americans to come together and stand against antisemitism and against the sickening hate and evil that Hamas represents," says the White House spokesperson.
