Police yelled \u201cstep back\u201d as they shoved the unruly crowd onto the sidewalk, video shows, while counter-protesters rallied nearby.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey\u2019re a bunch of brainwashed fools,\u201d Karen Lichtbraun, co-sponsor of Zionist group Herut New York City, told The Post of the pro-Palestine protesters.<\/p>\n
\u201cIsrael does not occupy anything. It\u2019s the Jewish homeland. And this is all anti Zionism, which is anti semitism, which is Jew hate.\u201d<\/p>\n
About 100 individuals were waving Palestinia flags and banging drums before some of them forced their way bast police barriers into the street. (Yoav Ginsburg for NY post)<\/p>\n

The demonstration quickly spilled into another anti-Israel protest at Hunter College, with about 200 rabble-rousers weaving through the streets carrying signs reading \u201cLabeling people as anti-semites cannot justify occupation and brutality\u201d and \u201cStop the sale of Palestinian Land.\u201d<\/p>\n
Police said no arrests have been made, describing the protest as \u201corderly\u201d and \u201cpeaceful.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A hateful mob of keffiyeh-clad anti-Israel protesters flooded the streets near a historic Manhattan synagogue Tuesday night \u2014…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":776268,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5122],"tags":[5229,99,5248,405,403,5226,5225,5228,5227,7237,188711,67,586,132,5230,68,1154,2969],"class_list":["post-776267","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-america","tag-israel","tag-metro","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-newyork","tag-newyorkcity","tag-ny","tag-nyc","tag-protests","tag-synagogues","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-us-news","tag-usa"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116525260359169901","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/776267","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=776267"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/776267\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/776268"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=776267"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=776267"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=776267"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
