NY Democrat Slams Pro-Palestinian Protest Following Announcement Israeli Baby And Family Were Killed In Hamas Captivity

 

Fox News reported on the violent protests in Boro Park Brooklyn on Tuesday night after a pro-Palestinian protest took place in a predominantly Orthodox Jewish neighborhood, following the heartbreaking announcement that the Israeli baby kidnapped by Hamas on October 7th was dead.

Fox anchor Dana Perino showed viral clips from the protest and noted, “That there is an anti-Israel protest erupting in New York City. Activists adding fuel to their provocation by chanting anti-Semitic chants in an Orthodox Jewish neighborhood just outside of New York City. Brian Llenas has the latest. Hi, Brian,” Perino added.

“Hi, Dana. Well, this all happened last night in Borough Park, Brooklyn, when a pro-Palestinian group held an anti-Israel protest in the middle of one of the world’s largest Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods. That did not go over well. The NYPD did its best to try to separate the groups, but there were multiple physical scuffles and near brawls,” Llenas reported, adding:

The anti-Israel protesters reportedly shouting, ‘Settlers go back home and Zionists go to hell.’ And, ‘There is only one solution: Intifada, revolution.’

Jewish protestors shout back, ‘Trump owns Gaza and terrorists get out of here.’ The group Pal-Awda was protesting what they say is the sale of stolen Palestinian land. The NYPD tells us there was at least one arrest, a man charged with assault for punching someone. But we don’t know who punched who necessarily. The victim, though, is a 61-year-old man. He was treated by EMS.

Now, just take a look at this video. A protester alerting the NYPD to a knife at the rally. Police tried to clear the scene and found a sizable knife on the ground.

Llenas then reported on New York Congressman Richie Torres’s (D-NY) statement on X following the protests. “It should come as a shock to no one that the pro-Hamas mob targeting Jews and promising to flood Borough Park has descended into violence. Violence is not a bug, but a feature of the so-called Free Palestine movement, which has no desire to free Palestinians from Hamas,” Llenas quoted Torres before concluding:

This anti-Israel protest took place just hours after Hamas said that the Bibas family, hostages mom Sheri, and her two little boys, Ariel and Kafir, are dead.

The group End Jew hatred Dana is now calling. President Trump is now calling on President Trump’s Justice Department to investigate and prosecute the activist group from last night for depriving Jews of their civil rights.
