Irony Alert: Anti-Israel Protest to 'Flood the Tree Lighting for Gaza'

Seriously, who organized this protest and thought it was a great idea to own the Jews? Anti-Israel protesters came out to a demonstration that was organized to ‘flood the tree lighting for Gaza.’

To state the obvious, Christmas trees are symbols of a holy day for Christians. Muslims don’t celebrate Christmas, nor do Jews. Being obnoxious and interrupting normal activities for the sane in society is what these anti-Israel demonstrations do. Why have there been protests during the cease-fire – you know, the cease-fire that Hamas broke a couple of times? These idiots continued protesting while the war was on pause. They disrupted the lives of the people in the cities where they chose to protest, in this case, New York City, but nothing changed.

The annual tree lighting at Rockefeller Plaza on Wednesday night went on as planned. It was nationally televised, as it is every year.

WCBS-TV reporter Ali Bauman posted images of the demonstration on X, showing one protester holding a placard with a large swastika.

The NYPD previously said it was preparing for potential protests. A large police presence was already noticeable midday with extra security barriers and officers lining the surrounding streets.

The Rockefeller protest comes just weeks after pro-Palestinian demonstrators disrupted the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, where some individuals glued themselves to the ground and at least 34 were arrested for disorderly conduct.

Entertainers included Cher, Barry Manilow, and Kelly Clarkson, among others. The Radio City Rockettes also performed.

There was some chaos reported. The NBC cameras that were televising the event stayed on the performers to avoid filming the protesters. Police were ready for them.

Hundreds of protestors swarmed the streets surrounding Rockefeller Center, as police tried to separate Christmas revelers from the mobs, pushing back people chanting “river to the sea.” Arrests were made and several fights broke out.

Many of those who wished to see the Christmas tree lighting were turned away in the chaos.

The hate-mongers protesting in the name of Hamas and calling for an end to violence in Gaza are perpetuating violence in the streets of America. Where is the president? Why isn’t he calling for the violence to stop? I don’t mean in a press conference on the fly but in a national address? The BLM protests that frequently turned into riots were not discouraged by political leaders. Many Democrat politicians joined in on BLM marches. The Summer of Love normalized this kind of protest. Biden’s America often looks like a third-world country.

There were protesters outside the memorial service for Rosalynn Carter this week.

Several chanting, sign-wielding demonstrators set up outside Glenn Memorial United Methodist Church in Atlanta, where former first lady Rosalynn Carter is being memorialized in a tribute service. Biden is attending, and his motorcade traveled by the scene.

The crowd engaged in chants of “Biden, Biden, you can’t hide. We charge you with genocide!” as the motorcade approached.

Signs included “End all U.S. aid to Israel” and “Ceasefire now! Stop Israel and Biden’s genocide.”

Jimmy Carter was known to not be a friend to Israel when he was president. He was pro-Palestine. His contempt for Israel continued after he left the White House. He often made comments that were not supportive of Israel.

The useful idiots for Hamas in America may be causing senile old Joe Biden to go wobbly in his support of Israel but Americans are watching. The normies are disgusted and will remember in November 2024. Or, at least I certainly hope they will.
