Kaila LichtBraun reported: “At the protest, a few people thanked us and agreed.
A number of people said they didn’t care. A few people screamed “free palestine” and yelled “Israel is an apartheid state” …. and gave us the finger.”
“Lots of hostility. Mostly from white people, one Jew and a woman who claimed to be pro-Roger Waters. Others yelled about occupation.”

.Kaila continued: “I think it was more hostile this time than previous protests. But, I don’t think they were all liberal.” (video Karen Lichtbraun- even more photos )
And NOW in 2022: Roger Waters is an unapologetic anti-Israel, anti -Semitic celebrity, with NO cancel-culture hounding him … cause it’s OPEN Season on Jews in NYC.
“A large group of dedicated activists gathered together across from the Israeli consulate in midtown Manhattan to show solidarity with our Israeli brethren who were simultaneously staging their third vigil with 20 other organizations to halt the opening of the Agron Street mission in Jerusalem.”
THERE IS ONLY ONE JERUSALEM!
AFSI’S URGENT VIGIL IN NEW YORK CITY WAS HELD SIMULTANEOUSLY
WITH THE SOVEREIGNTY MOVEMENT
IN JERUSALEM.
Establishing an American consulate for the “Palestinian Authority” in Jerusalem is the de facto partition of the city and its transformation into the capital of “Palestine”. (Yehudit Kastover and Nadia Matar)
“Israeli Society is a friend of the American people. This is not something that one does to friends. We call upon the American administration — if it is so urgent for you to open as special consulate for the “Palestinians” — open it in Ramallah, not in Jerusalem.”[Im Tirtzu CEO Matan Peleg]

US Turns Against Israel At UN
“Granting “Palestinian” “refugees” the right to return to Israel would be the end of Israel as a Jewish state. Furthermore, the issue of “Palestinian” “refugees” is a complete fallacy. A lie that has been perpetuated by the Palestinian Authority and the UN to destroy Israel.
The Biden Administration has been attacking Israel relentlessly as of late. However, it’s recent attacks against Israel is not surprising. Any honest person knew that the Biden Administration would be overtly hostile to the State of Israel. Just like the Obama Administration.” [The Geller Report]
Tell Biden and Company Jerusalem is the Eternal Capital of Israel. SUPPORT A UNITED JERUSALEM!
May 23, 2021. NYC Lower Manhattan – WTC 7. “Stand with Israel. Unite Against Terror“. (apologies for late post)
”IAC officials plan to lay blue and white flowers – showing Israel’s national colors – at the World Trade Center memorial, and to march from the site to the Museum of Jewish Heritage – A Living Memorial to the Holocaust in nearby Battery Park afterward, creating a powerful symbol linking the destruction of European Jewry to contemporary efforts to target Jews and other innocent victims.”
There was much joy amongst those who gathered in support of Israel. Families with children were able to stay this time (no fear of marauding ‘palis’- see LINK)
You could tell even the NYPD was relaxed – as long as the ‘fakestinians’ stayed away (which they did)
Unfortunately, music was blasted at such a HIGH decibel it was impossible to join the crowd. Noticed others hung back as well, especially those with children.
Only able to to watch from a distance, no where near the stage, was disappointing; not able cover the rally speakers.
Later I noticed I had captured the obnoxious “Crack Head Barney” standing in the crowd (left of center- in pink dress/ blond curly wig) See [Crackhead Barney at @CHBAF]
“Barney” loves confrontations so the police removed her immediately.
And of course, she complained.
She did not want to be ‘penned’ with the Neturei Karta protestors (she works ALONE)
.Apparently, ‘Barney” headed uptown, perhaps hoping to hook up with another scheduled Support Israel gathering. Elad Eliahu found “Barney” making a nuisance of herself -as usual- to anyone she could hassle. (see his video below)
.But, once I arrived at Duffy, saw only 3 or 4 people hanging around.
The police asked the Jewish support groups to stay home. (The “palestinians” were quite violent at the most recent rally in Duffy (see LINK)
Guess it worked. Both sides were hardly visible.
.
WTC 7 to Duffy/Times Square. The message: ISRAEL has a RIGHT to DEFEND.
Am Yisrael Chai!
