Pro-Palestinian activist group takes credit for vandalism of NY Public Library, targeting wall honoring Jewish donor
2023-11-26
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] A pro-Paleostinian activist group has taken credit for vandalizing the main branch of the New York Public Library on Thanksgiving to specifically target a Jewish donor.

Within Our Lifetime (WOL), a pro-Paleostinian activist group dedicated to the destruction of Israel took credit on Instagram for vandalizing the main branch of the New York Public Library near Bryant Park. Earlier this month, the Post Millennial revealed that the activist group was promoting a "tool kit" to plan and execute protests as near identical pro-Paleostinian rallies have sprung up on college campuses and in cities across the US.

Hundreds of protesters swarmed around the building while some of the activists spray-painted the words "Free Paleostine" on the pillars of the front of the library and vandalized it with bloody handprints. Paleostinian flags were also hung on the structure as well as signs with the slogan "From the river to the sea Paleostine will be free," a call for genocide against Israelis.

Radicals from the group also placed stickers on the structure calling Zionism terrorism and claiming CUNY (City University of New York) where Jewish students have been regularly targeted by Hamas
...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,...
supporters, complicit in "genocide."

The main target of the vandalism was the dedication stone naming the Stephen A Schwartzman building.

Schwartzman, a wealthy Jewish businessman, donated $100 million to renovate the facility in 2008.

The radical group issued a statement late Thursday night taking credit for vandalism across Manhattan on Thanksgiving. "Today on 'Thanks-Taking' we stood on the right side of history by refusing to celebrate a genocide while another one was actively taking place. All throughout the thanksgiving parade people held Paleostinian signs and flags and disrupted the colonial propaganda machine."
