NYC Protestors Stand With Gaza outside IDF - Or NOT

 

August 8, 2022 . NYC, 6 pm, across from Grand Central in front of "Friends of IDF "(Israel Defense Forces) headquarters. It was VERY hot. in the high 90s, but heat index much higher.


The SOCIALIST Revolution signs were leading the way
as they assembled on the sidewalk outside 60 East 42nd st.

Flickr part 1-signs . lots of signs

Flickr Part 3- the crowd spilled in to the street and the police - as usual- simple adds barricades to protect the 'palis' and friends from passing cars. Cause these protestors are going to go wherever THEY want to go.

Video - Part 1 - a look at the crowd as they dutifully CHANT

Video Part 2- Nirdeen Kiswani takes over the chants. (a young protestor faints from the heat) BUT Nirdeen continues (after all-they have a trained MEDIC) They must keep going!

Video part 3 - Nerdeen Kiswani.  The crowd loves here hate filled rhetoric. Always the start speaker. BUT, the very loud amps and her propensity to GROWL makes it difficult to record her every word clearly.

There were also a few pro-Israel/pro-IDF supporters across 42ndt. st.

But even those few were an annoyance to the 'palis' . SO, they sent a 'fakestinian' flag to stand beside them.

Am Y'israel Chai
