Emerging Anti-Israel Protest Tactic: Disrupting American Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremonies

Anti-Israel leftists have now disrupted shopping on Black Friday and the lighting of a town Christmas Tree on Nantucket. Joe Biden was on the island for the Thanksgiving holiday and was at the tree lighting when chanting broke out in the crowd.

These people are incapable of allowing anyone to enjoy anything.

The Daily Mail reported:

‘Free Palestine’ protesters interrupt Nantucket Christmas tree lighting with president and his family: Biden is accused of ‘genocide’ at event with Jill, Hunter and baby BeauThe Nantucket Christmas tree lighting that President Joe Biden was attending Friday evening with his family was interrupted by ‘Free Palestine’ protesters.The president, first lady Jill Biden and their children and grandchildren were gathered alongside the tree in Nantucket’s town square as the town crier led the countdown to get the tree illuminated.But after that went off without a hitch – after technical difficulties last year – fewer than 10 protesters at the front of the crowd unveiled ‘free Palestine’ and ‘end apartheid’ signs, directly in the president’s line of sight.’Biden, Biden you can’t hide. We charge you with genocide,’ they chanted.A man went up to the microphone to remind them ‘this is a community tree lighting’ and said that while he ‘respected their right to the First Amendment’ he encouraged them to stop.

Note how infantile the chant is, not to mention the behavior.

I’m no fan of Biden, but this is completely inappropriate.

This had been going on throughout the day.

Disrupting activities like Christmas tree lightings appears to be an emerging tactic for the left. It happened in Seattle too.

KOMO News reported, via CBS Austin:

Pro-Palestine supporters disrupt Seattle Christmas tree lightingA group of pro-Palestinian supporters congregated Friday during Seattle’s annual Christmas tree lighting ceremony at Westlake Center.A KOMO photographer traveled to the event, where they captured hundreds of supporters holding signs in support of Palestine. The lighting of the Westlake Center Christmas tree occurred shortly after 5:15 p.m., with the Macy’s Star and fireworks taking place afterward.One of the many signs that can be seen read, “Stand with Palestine! End the occupation now!” Others read, “Palestine will be free!”

Does the left want people to hate them?
