Thousands of NYC protesters demand the eradication of Israel

At least 5,000 anti-Israeli protesters filled the streets of Bay Ridge Saturday at a rally where they called for the eradication of the Jewish state and demanded the United States withdraw its support of its closest ally in the Middle East.

Around 2 p.m., demonstrators converged on 72nd Street and Fifth Avenue, packing the streets and sidewalk for the “Flood Brooklyn for Palestine” demonstration in one of the largest Arab and Middle Eastern communities in New York City.

“We are Calling for full liberation of all of Palestine . . . to every single inch, from river to the sea,” shouted one protester, repeating a refrain used by Hamas Terrorists and their anti-Israel backers.

“We are not like other groups simply calling for a cease-fire,” added the woman, wearing a T-shirt of one of the event’s organizers, the radical leftist group Within Our Life.

“We are calling not simply for an end to genocide. We are calling for an end to the siege, an end to the blockade. An end to the occupation.”

The anti-Israel mob included all ages, from young children to 20-somethings to gray-haired elders.

“Say it loud, say it clear, we don’t want no Zionists here!” protesters cheered while beating on drums and waving Palestinian flags.

“We will free Palestine within our lifetime!” the crowd cried, holding signs reading, “Zionism is genocide” and “Resistance is justified when people are occupied.”

Many attendees weren’t surprised by Saturday’s show of force for the rally, which was promoted as a demonstration for the “end [of] US-sponsored genocide in Gaza.”

“It’s Brooklyn, so it’s little Palestine,” one protester named Amy said. “I’m here because I’ve been feeling angry about what’s happening, and coming out here and yelling in support with the community is a good thing for everyone.”

Critics tore into the marchers for their radical demand calling for the end of Israel.

“Whole neighborhood are Hamas supporters. Disgusting,” one seethed on X.

“This Bay Ridgeite thinks if Hamas didn’t kill >1,000 civilians, including the beheadings of women and children, they wouldn’t be in this predicament,” another wrote.

Demonstrations have erupted since Hamas terrorists descended on Israel, murdering 1,400 people, including babies and children. The attack unleashed war as Israel vowed to destroy Hamas.

In one Manhattan demonstration against the conflict, angry pro-Palestinian supporters displayed swastikas and burned an Israeli flag.

On Friday, 139 pro-Palestinian protesters attending a demonstration organized by the Democratic Socialists of America were arrested for blocking traffic in Manhattan.
