May 12, 2021 Duffy Square . NYC. Stand Up Against Terror.
(no idea why this rally was never posted here)
It was a really nice turn out in Support for Israel, with just a few Neturei Karta in opposition. Unfortunately the speakers were in a tight circle so the media wasn’t able to get coverage – other than a few signs.
Flickr slide show of Rally
August 26, 2021: “Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett’s meeting with President Joe Biden comes in the midst of heightened tensions with its regional archenemy, Iran, and as Israel grapples with a gradual resurgence of hostilities on its southern border with the Gaza Strip.”
Mahmoud Musa, 23, was slapped with seven years in prison for attacking Joseph Borgen, a Jewish man, during a clash between Israel and Palestinian supporters on May 20, 2021 in Midtown.
“In my opinion, if the cops did not come, if they did not save my life – I would have died and that was his goal and the goal of that group.”
Musa and another defendant, Mohammed Othman, each pleaded guilty to charges of second-degree assault as a hate crime last month for his role in the attack. Prosecutors said that the two men faced between 3 1/2 to 15 years behind bars at their respective sentencing hearing.
The Big Lie, that they are “PEACEFUL” ‘fakestinians’,was exposed. This is a WAR to get rid of the Jews, everywhere; not just in Israel.
The NYPD attempted to protect the Support Israel Rally from the insane ‘palis’.
Smoke bombs, fist fights, water bottles lobbed across the square. The mayhem left many damaged chairs and tables, all that was in the path of these ‘pali’ marauders.
They respect no one.
Stolen flags was a favorite ‘sport’.
But, so were the arrests (I read there were as many as 25 arrests). Fun watching them marched through the crowd
At first the police didn’t manage these 5 boys appropriately as they were causing confrontations, pushing and arguing through the crowd. (It seemed to be their ‘assignment’.)
These 5 pre-teens were annoyed when officers finally pulled them out of the crowd to cause less confusion. But, not before the boy in white stole an Israeli flag, spearheading the first physical confrontation.
And this lovely boy, not liking what she said, told a Jewish woman he was going to punch her out.
You tube videos (6 short vids) Vid 1: This was intended to be a peaceful rally in Support of Israel’s Right to Defend. I was told that the NYPD had not felt any extra protection would be needed. But, there was nothing peaceful in the ‘pali’ assaults against the pro-Israel rally. The extra protection up front would have been nice.
Vid 2: One particular debater went on for quite awhile about “genocide’. She screamed, “You’re killing my people” and, “We have only rocks to defend ourselves.” Also, she was very annoyed by the “Support Israel” group’s dancing and singing …. while her people were dying.
Vid 3 : Chanting, singing and debating before the “pali” assaults took off.
Vid 4 : As both sides squared off, police attempted to contain the “palis”. But, they stole more Israeli flags anyway, threw smoke canisters and eventually, “breached the barricades.”
Vid 5 : Both sides were face to face at one point, way too close for comfort.
Vid 6 : Police continued to gain some control by keeping the “palis” separate, but as the mess in Duffy reveals, that was ultimately a big fail.
Flickr slide shows: Part 1, a peaceful rally was ATTACKED in Times Square. Part 2 is a look at the “palis” and the NYPD. Eventually there were many “pali” arrests.
Part 2 Flickr is a look at the “palis” including 5 pre-teen males. Not sure what the fake ACLU protest monitor was doing. I saw at least one wandering uselessly as usual.
What followed the so called conclusion to the Duffy Square assaults was more assaults throughout the city.
..This next attack was after the rally for Israel. [NY POST attack] With a disgusting response from the perpetrator who claimed he was the victim. [NY POST no remorse]
And then there was an explosive device of some sort thrown at pedestrians in the Diamond District [Yeshiva World] (explosion is at approx 1:44)
Saturday, the 22nd, was a different story. In Sunnyside, Queens “Thousands of protesters marched from Sunnyside to Astoria Queens in a large demonstration in support of Palestine on Saturday. Crowd waved flags, rode on cars, held signs and chanted as they marched in Astoria.” Video by @NewYorkCityPeople @ScooterCasterNY and @queensnewsjunkie [https://t.co/xv1JfNWVqL] [https://twitter.com/i/status/1396245325204103169]
No CONFLICTS according to a very silent press. However, there was this video from Elad Eliahu[@elaadeliahu] of the not so peaceful ‘palis’ : “A Jewish Trans Person was assaulted at the Nakba Free Palestine protest in Bay Ridge Saturday, after saying “I’m not a Zionist” by a man draping a palestinian flag, the assaulter was allowed to run off by others. This story has been suppressed by local activist reporters“. (crickets)
Sadly, the NYPD , overwhelmed by the “palis”, has advised NYC JEWS to be safe and stay home. If this is what comes of these attacks, isolation and fear? If so, the TERRORISTS will have won.

As the election looms: ‘Love is the Answer; We are all in this together”
Found these bill boards of Mr Brainwash posted at the corner of 7th Ave and 42nd Street for at least the summer months. They were there for a long haul.
Even though the art of Mr Brainwash depicts a message of love – given to the city of New York – the message fell on what was certainly NOT a Summer of LOVE as BLM and Antifa looted, burned and destroyed much of the city. BUT NYC patriots are fighting back (Thank G-d) … Thank yous go to Operation Flag Drop and Dion Cini …
Still, NYC is never subtle. Promoting the ridiculous “Don’t Be Afraid of Anyone” (Embrace The Absurd) campaigns that dragged on for a couple of years.(compliments of the progs in-office)
Only recently replaced by another VOTE VOTE VOTE campaign.
This reminded me of the VOTE TWICE message found at the GAP store in Times Square (20o8). A campaign that rolls on and on each election…
A Vote Twice 2008 campaign. (Seen in the jar and on the T-shirt) Guess Obama/ Biden needed the extra help. But, has that duplicitous campaign ended? (Not likely)
As for the Mr Brainwash ads, seems the premiere was in July – 29th July, 2020.

“LOVE is the Answer” simply reduces life in NYC to one big empty cliche. No real solution offered to life’s travails.
And, WHO is Mr. Brainwash. Why did he merit such a prominent intersection, for so long? [pacific press agency]
Thierry Guetta was featured in Banksy documentary “Exit Through the Gift Shop” in SOHO New York City NYC( 06/30/2020)
Never Never Give Up! by Mr. Brainwash

“The work of Mr. Brainwash is rooted in pop art. Mr. Brainwash looks to art and entertainment as the subjects of his work. Mr. Brainwash uses pop art that includes artistic tradition and even prior pop art as the subject of his work.
Mr. Brainwash (MBW) is the pseudonym for the graffiti street artist Thierry Guetta. Mr. Brainwash was born in France in 1966. Rising to prominence due to a heavily hyped exhibition and a Banksy-directed documentary entitled, “Exit Through the Gift Shop,”
Originally a video-grapher, Mr. Brainwash began his career in 1999 documenting the lives and artwork of various graffiti street artists such as Banksy and Shepard Fairey. Mr. Brainwash’s graffiti-styled art has continued to garner recognition from art collectors and street art enthusiasts alike.
On a visit to France, Guetta filmed his cousin, the street artist Space Invader. The experience changed Guetta’s life, he became fascinated with the role of street art in modern culture.
After dabbling, his first show, “Life is Beautiful,” received positive reviews, although Guetta’s team ended up making key gallery decisions while Guetta played the role of the hype man by calling in favors from Fairey, Banksy and other artists.
Guetta’s restlessness translated into an enormous art show with hundreds of pieces, created by a team of graphic designers under Guetta’s guidance. His work is a cavalcade of styles, themes and subjects, many of them borrowed from other artists.”
So, it would seem it took a TEAM of designers to borrow and create, yet One Man gets the credit: M. Guetta aka Mr Brainwash. Whatever.
NYC is such a tool, never passing up an opportunity to SPREAD THE LOVE.
And that they did – with no commitment to any real peace and love.

“Abolish ICE” protesters, joined by BLM, blocked traffic at 7th avenue & 46th Street (aka Duffy Square). As usual this involved lots of police to clear the streets and make arrests.
Note charming T-shirt “RIOT”
Unless these protestors are burning and looting, even the sycophant media ignores them.
The photo-ops are the usual TIE UP TRAFFIC (and the police) and then the arrests.
-“Barely informed with ELAD“ has the action before I arrived, with approximately 100 of the protestors arrested and carted off to 1 Police Plaza.
I arrived after the bulk of the arrests had been taken in vans and busses.
–The remaining protestors, no longer in the street, were waiting for the last of the arrestees to depart.
Jerks like this fellow taunted the police with derogatory verbal diarrhea.
Police were stoic.
Polite. Patient.
Flickr Slide Show (Sept. 19, 2020)
-The BLM/ICE coalitions hang together, offending everyone while demanding RESPECT thru fear.
Unfortunately, some synagogues and churches advertised their support by posting fearful compliance for all to see.
There are many who think these anarchists are do-gooders.
Too many are frightened of fighting back, so they support the BLM lies;
ignoring thefts, looting and riots.
Too late, some will finally realize, there is no reward for such foolish loyalty.
“Bands of shoplifters are terrorizing Soho’s high-end boutiques, lifting hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of designer merchandise, and in some cases, threatening security guards to keep quiet — or be labeled racist…”

Cit Ass Theatre Presented a play (of sorts) “on Broadway” about “a Climate and Ecological Emergency”, Jurassic Farce.
September 23, 2020
6 pm – 44th st and Broadway.
(click picture for short Flickr Slide show)
Actually, it’s Children’s Theatre for adults – with colorful costumes – and a very unsubtle message. (video 1)
Blue Dinos good/ Red Dinos bad. “Prehistoric creatures demonstrate how everyday people can mitigate a Climate and Ecological Disaster” (video 2 – The Play)
A meteor is going to hit the earth. How to save humanity. “Why is a solution so difficult to find“. (video 3, at 25 seconds, speaker presents solution to intersectional crisis)
In conclusion, it will take a Citizen’s Assembly where the PEOPLE assemble a plan: Power to the People!
August 29, 2020. “Moscow on the Hudson” The Upper West side of Manhattan where UWS libs ELECTED Mayor “Red Bill”DeBlasio: TWICE. But now, after 6 months of a forced lock down that has fueled the homeless population, many of these progressive libs have become disenchanted. NIMBY is their battle cry.
The situation morphed into YIMBY Libs vs NIMBY Libs.
(However, the NIMBYS were not on the side of the angels.)
“The Upper West Side has been abuzz for weeks about the relocation of a number of homeless men to various hotels in the neighborhood. Many of the men are sex offenders and drug addicts. They aren’t receiving the more intensive services they need and the neighborhood has seen a steep decline in safety.
The newly formed group Upper West Siders for a Compassionate, Safe and Equitable Community, which wrote welcome messages in chalk outside the Lucerne. […] also started an online petition at Change.org […] imploring neighbors worried about their personal safety — patrolling the streets to discourage midday open drug use and flashing — to stop being so mean.
“If we want to build a truly just society, we must be willing to stand up for those values in our own neighborhood,” concludes the petition from the YIMBYs.”
The problems of homelessness GROWS and the lock down, the tyranny of despots has destroyed NYC businesses causing rampant employment and feeding the ranks of the homeless.
Democrat/Socialists are destroying our cities. And on the 29th of August I took a look at the dogooder leftists who think chalk drawings will somehow heal hopelessness of homelessness.
First: On my way to the Lucerne Hotel, I noticed a Banksy picture:
Reading up on the artist, I found that Banksy has a connection to homeless out reach. [NY Post Banksy] [NY Post Banksy]
“Bansky graffiti on the Louise Michel, a migrant search and rescue ship operating in the Mediterranean and financed by the British street artist. Seen at sea on August 17, 2020.”
[via REUTERS]
“Art and anarchy have joined together aboard this vessel in the name of rescuing refugees. British street artist Banksy is financing a pink-painted former French customs yacht, sailing beneath a German flag, to help save migrants stranded between north Africa and Europe, the Guardian reported.”
Once at the Lucerne Hotel (on W. 79th st.) I saw the impact these UWS Liberals – the YIMBYs – were having. Chalk was on the sidewalk. Everywhere. The messages ” ALL are welcomed” repeated in many ways.
The local residents demanded the drug/criminal element not be housed in a residential neighborhood, but today they were silent. The YIMBY’s controlled the media blitz.
SLIDESHOW
But, it’s not just the UWS that has an issue with homelessness. 6 months later, there are more and more homeless and druggies on the streets of midtown as well. Some wander all day with their possessions, some sleep all day. Some just hang out.
Empty hotels have become their homes.
But social life, no matter where you are, is outdoors in a NY minute.
Side thought: Who would want to rent a room after these criminals, druggies and mentally ill have been running through the halls.
SLIDESHOW
APRIL/MAY 2020 Beginning March 12, 2020 when the government closed NYC. Locked it Down. Businesses, restaurants, theatres, bars.All were forced to shutter by government fiat. Previously, Mayor deBlasio had a homeless issue anyway . But, now it exploded. At the end of this album, I threw in a couple of archived oldies … of “deBozos” NYC.
SLIDESHOW
May 2020. Approaching Memorial Day weekend, businesses wanted to get back on some type of footing with alcohol to go; still the restrictions, the lock down restrictions continued. Economic ruin for many. As people try to recover, gathering on the sidewalks outside these struggling business to drink and socialize, the homeless stare back at you.
SLIDESHOW
JUNE 2020. What was supposed to be 15 days to” flatten the curve”, dragged on.The streets grew more and more disgusting. Often many possessions accompany the homeless. (Sleep seems to be an important need) A place to stop and rest. The familiar charging of a cell phone (while resting). And twice, I stumbled upon the moving of worldly goods by two sad homeless women.
This was not a game….
SLIDESHOW
JULY 2020. A popular corner for sleeping: an abandoned restaurant. Open or closed , the homeless set up shop. 42nd is a very messy home base. Moving west on 42nd, another cell phone charging while RESTING. Found a familiar homeless fellow pulling his “I’m so weak” ruse in the middle of Restaurant Row on 46th st. (he’s usually on a sidewalk) People try to help him with food and comfort.All he wants is money. Homeless Hotel on 44 st. And then there’s the theatres, offering a place to SLEEP for the homeless and drugged out. A moment of curiosity, a white woman – with her BLM/gay pride wheel chair SAILING – very fast- up 8th ave. (Only in NY)
SLIDESHOW
AUGUST 2020. Homeless in midtown. Are they deep in an alcohol-slumber. Or drugs? The police are out and about, so perhaps the druggies have
moved away, leaving just the sadly alcoholic homeless. Or the brazenly happy – like this fellow.
De Blasio refuses to open the city. After the 15 day ruse morphed into 6 months and counting, businesses are moving out. Broadway. The hotels. Restaurants. All need tourism. But a capricious government leaves them sitting empty. No business. No tourists. NYC is dying. (So too the American spirit.)
The Dems are determined to destroy our republic. But, it ain’t over til it’s over. Pray our country finds the strength to fight back.
“Black Sx Workers in NYC are dying and at increased risk for police violence under the criminalization of sx work by the NYPD. Sx workers are excluded from financial relief bills, and face discrimination in accessing housing and other jobs. Further discrimination of sx work on digital platforms during the Covid19 pandemic eliminates another necessary source of income to survive. Black sx workers in NYC demand the decriminalization of sx work,the decarceration of sx workers the defunding of NYPD Vice unit and the repeal of the Walking While Trans Ban.
Black sx workers demand an end to all legislation that considers sx workers as “unintended consequences” or “collateral damage”, such as the EARN IT Act which just passed the Senate Judiciary Committee. We demand justice through our direct action targeting city, state, and federal policymakers. Black Sx Worker Lives Matter!
Historically Black Sx Workers have built culture in the areas of music, fashion, beauty, sxuality, technology, LGBTQIA rights and women’s rights. As Black Sx Workers we demand the acknowledgment and support for the advancements of our rights and contribution to the culture we navigate everyday. Sx Workers are Thot leaders and futurist and it is time for the community to show up for the most marginalized who lead the world’s liberation. We are not free until we are all free-SX NOIR.”
Flickr slide show Part 1 of 2 The MC announced they were taking over Times Square. (they didn’t really) But they did have a large crowd of sex workers and friends listening to speakers before they marched downtown. There were the usual complaints about the police treating them badly. Two representatives from Queens spoke. And it seems, according to the protestors, black sex workers suffer racism. Whatever, this was a very white crowd.
Flickr Slide show (Part 2) The Sex Workers announced they were taking over Times Square. However, not all were participating in the Sex Workers March. There were Free,Free Hong Kong/China protestors. A few Muslim tourists. Vagrants. Models. And what seemed to be a young lady filming her quinceañera video. Just another day in Times Square.

Video “March for Black WomXn” Part 1 –July 26, 2020. As everyone gathered in Duffy Square, a Times Square Alliance officer closed off the Red Steps (a usual occurrence to control protests)
The MEN of the Black WomXn March argued with the officer. (are these feminists too dainty to take up the fight?)
The MEN demanded the protest be allowed in front of the steps (by default, the statue of Fr. Duffy) The guard did NOT relent.
The black women OCCUPIED the location in front of the steps, anyway. The “ladies” of BLM did as they pleased.
Video “March For Black WomXn” Part 2 – Excerpts of some of the speakers (one claims Black WomXn are at the “back of the line”) and makes a bogus claim that everyone standing in Times Square , “Is standing on STOLEN land.“
Video “March For Black WomXn” Part 3 – A few more short excerpts from the “The March for Black WomXn” speakers and their BLM Marxist agitprop.
One speaker upbraids black men for not supporting Black WomXn.
Another was a self-proclaimed, black queer woman and a Democrat Socialist. “We are going to take care of those most in need and those most oppressed.”
Kristin for Harlem said “We must ABOLISH the NYPD!“
Slide Show –March for Black WomXn – Duffy Sq – Part 1
Before they marched, the Black WomXn of the BLM Marxist movement gathered in Duffy Sq; joined by plenty of WHITE faces also hating on America.
Re the “intersectional” claims:”Traditional feminist ideas and anti-racist policies exclude black women because they face overlapping discrimination unique to them.”
Slide show – March for Black WomXn Duffy Sq -Part 2 A Times Square Alliance officer closed off the Red Steps and the MEN of the Black WomXn March argued with this officer.
The Black Lives Matter Marxist movement has many groups under its umbrella, such as the March of the Black Women that serve mainly as recruitment tools. Their purpose: protest and riot. They should be exposed as anarchists.
Since, “BLM has been around for over 5 years, and has raised close to a BILLION dollars,” How many lives have they made better? ”
Have they: -Sent black kids to college? -cleaned up a community? -Betteed our schools? -Fed the hungry?
Nope, they protest and riot. (That’s all) As their movement to destroy our country continues to grows larger.
