‘Pro-Palestine’ Rioters Disrupt Travel in New York City at Grand Central, Port Authority Bus Terminal, and Penn Station
“There is only one solution, intifada revolution.”
Do you know how not to win people to your side? Interrupting their commute home.
Anti-Israel Within Our Lifetime (WOL) organized this “Global Strike,” demanding people interrupt life at Grand Central, Port Authority Bus Terminal, and Penn Station.
A few stuck around after the initial “event” to disrupt Donna Karan’s IDF fundraiser.
Donna Karan is the woman behind the fashion label DKNY.
Grand Central
They showed up in their masks and scarves to cover their faces.

Midtown
The rioters left Grand Central, blocking traffic in Midtown, on their way to the Port Authority.
Alec Baldwin confronted the rioters, too.
A rioter shoved a phone in Alec’s face, causing the actor to yell at the person.
I don’t know what caused it or why Alec was around, but he lives in NYC

Port Authority
They made their way to the Port Authority, causing more traffic problems and disturbances.
They even had police escorts.

Penn Station
Then it went haywire at Penn Station. Authorities had to alert travelers and emergency personnel for potential travel delays.

IDF Fundraiser
Donna Karan of DKNY is hosting the fundraiser in the West Village. As far as I know, no one could attend the fundraiser because the protesters blocked the street.
🚨RIGHT NOW: Vicious pro-Hamas ‘protestors’ and NYPD stand-off outside Donna Karan’s IDF fundraiser! (Greenwich Str NYC)
Watch the end: Alec Baldwin is terrorized by these ‘protestors’.

We’re witnessing the bullying and obnoxious antics of Muslim supremacists and Islamonazis, and, their equally vile, evil and despicable Dhimmi-crat and dhimmi supporters, enablers and cheerleaders.
This is an evil phenomenon of our time, and, it must be forcefully and unequivocally confronted by all people possessing moral probity and conscience.
Just let the police or whoever has a pistol handy put a round between their eyes and be done with them. Time for all the gloves to come off. These people are so flippantly messing around. It’s way past time people start making them find out.
Just turn Alec Baldwin loose with a pistol and watch them scatter.
Call them Nazis. Covers all the groups claiming to be “pro-palestine.”
Nazis were far smarter than Pale scum.
Police escort? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? NYC is lost.
Performance protest is losing appeal among the many that can see it’s fake and that those that cry for Palestinians would cry tears of joy if their true hate is achieved.
And the dumb Gen Z and Queers would rejoice, not quite knowing why, yet assured by the mob.
Confirmed (again): Islam is a cancer in the West.
They pulled this same crap back in late seventies when they were against the Shah. I was in college and there were demonstrations and turmoil on campus constantly because if they did it at home they’d be shot.
They are incorrect, of course. There isn’t only one solution; Israel is currently in the middle of… a different path… than the demands of those mobs.
I know I shouldn’t conflate “Pro-Palestinian Protesters” with “Pro-Terrorist” but here we are.
Why wouldn’t you conflate them? They’re basically the same thing
As confirmed by a recent poll. https://danielgordis.substack.com/p/the-palestinian-center-for-policy
There aren’t any “pro-Palestinian protesters” who are not pro-terrorist. That’s because the entire “Palestinian” cause rests on terrorism and murder, and wouldn’t exist without them.
Millhouse, there are times you equivocate on technicalities and write long pedantic dissertations on how to narrowly construe something as not what it clearly is… then at other times (such as just now) you come out with short statements of truth exhibiting such moral clarity that it confuses me exceedingly.
That’s because there simply aren’t any distinctions to be made in this case. If there were significant distinctions I would make them, but in this case there aren’t. The two sets of people have 100% overlap, and I explain the reason why that is not just a coincidence. They’re the same in reality because the alleged theoretical distinction between them turns out on closer examination to be an illusion.
Wearing the Hamas checkered black and white scarf is no different from wearing a swastika armband.
same here!
.I think that they are pro terrorist.
I bet none of them could tell you what happened to the last person to shove a camera in Alec Baldwin’s face.
If I lived in a city where idiots could block my transportation access, I wouldn’t leave home without it.
What would happen if a presidential candidate showed these people bullying America to join their quest to kill the Jews and then asked the camera “how many more Muslims should we allow in this country? What political party welcomes them?”
Both major parties.
This is how Muslims start off with their conquest. Non-violent protest that interrupts normal life. Then, as in Paris, when they reach a certain percentage of the population and get annoyed at the government they set fire to thousands of cars. Once they take command of a neighborhood or city, they demand Shira law for their citizens. As they become more powerful, their violence will increase to the point of setting bombs off at large public gatherings or other events. Their religion allows them to do these things with no thought of evil or punishment. How and why do we allow them into our country?
Just let the police or whoever has a pistol handy put a round between their eyes and be done with them. Time for all the gloves to come off. These people are so flippantly messing around. It’s way past time people start making them find out.
What kind of pathetic, worthless, sub-human scummy traitors elected Omar and T’laib to office in the first place? Why don’t we find a nice, neat way to disenfranchise these scum-sucking traitors and wipe their names from the voter rolls?
Eventually it will be necessary to expel Pales from America, even 2nd… N th. generation’s. Like so many American blacks, Pales culture destroys their children. While the cultures are very different, out comes for children are poor.
They’d be mugged in the Port Authority Bus Terminal.
Let them in, move the civilians out, and then shoot them all. Hose out the blood later.
If force is all they respect, give it to them.
Amen! Way past time for talk to stop and shooting to start.
The NYPD is hamstrung by Adams. Their thought process is that we can’t be seen as oppressors. Everyone has a valid opinion and should be heard. The reality is that these protestors are islomfacists. They hide their faces so that they can have immunity from their neighbors and co-workers. The true mark of 5th columnists. Want this crap to stop? Unleash the cops, but that won’t happen in these woke cesspools. By the way, you don’t see this type of action in red states with strong police forces and politicians who back them up. FJB
Want this to stop? Then simply make it a felony offense for a person to cover their face for the express purpose of concealing their identity from local law enforcement authorities and others in a public venue. Force them to remove the keffiyehs they just love to wear so that they can be identified and I guarantee that this nonsense would stop. Or at least be severely curtailed.
Start ripping off the masks. or make the masked so uncomfortable they remove them. or announce that masked people will be shot with rubber bullets until the masks are removed. It is important that they suffer immediate pain for their actions.
Will ya look at all of those professionally printed signs and banners.
My mother was active in Democrat politics back in the days of Adlai Stevenson. She worked on the campaign for a Democrat for our congressional district, blah blah.
One thing she pointed out to me was that every poster, bumper sticker, matchbook cover, etc had this little thing down in the corner shaped like a flying saucer of 1040s fiction. She called it “the union bug”, signifying that the item in question was printed up in a union shop.
How many of those signs were done up in union shops, and probably at a reduced price?
“Spontaneous”…
Time to bring back anti-mask laws.
Masks have been so convenient for groups like this.
The aw-thor-uh-teez can’t do that. We have another pandemic in the works for the ’24 election.
covid kinda did away with anti mask laws
I was in Grand Central last Thursday. Missed the show.
It is extremely depressing that NYPD is taking the British approach (demanding a person to hide the Israel flag,) instead of providing protection.
The heckler’s veto is working in NYC!
Interfering with the operation of the rail system in the US is a federal offense. I’m sure the FBI has a legion of agents scouring the footage so they can help prosecutors secure indictments, right?
Lucky for them none of the rioters stepped within 500 feet of an abortion clinic or else the FBI would’ve arrested them all and they’d be in detention pending trial for the next three years….
“There is only one solution, intifada revolution”
That’s fine. If they want “intifada revolution” then the people should give them intifada revolution. Just like the Israeli government is currently giving Hamas and the Arab terrorists “intifada revolution”. They might not like what they get but such talk has serious consequences. And it’s time that these fools face those consequences.
Those who are not armed and proficient should do something about it. 9mm pistol, 9mm carbine, 12 gauge bullpup shotgun, ammo and cleaning supplies. Extra magazines. About $1000 per person if you go economy, 2k-3k otherwise. And then hope you don’t need the stuff.
Why isn’t TSA and Homeland Security properly securing these transportation facilities??
They must take their “free speech” somewhere else. Political protestors have no right to disrupt or threaten public spaces.
Obviously not The Temples of Transportation for Dems right now.
🎼new york new york it’s a wonderful town, the riots up are and civilization is down 🎼
Remind me again how this doesn’t look like Germany 1930s, How do you know that there will be a different result? (You don’t.)
Once the filth terrorist-lovers start impeding travelers (and threatening/intimidating those travelers who try to go about their business), the pro-terrorist filth are outside the bounds of “peaceful protest” and need to be arrested. And if they resist arrest a nightstick shampoo might knock some sense into them too.
