About That Manhattan Bridge Hamas Supporters Shut Down Yesterday

First of all, it’s New York. How did NO ONE wind up with a knuckle sammich?

New Yorkers sure ain’t what they used to be, tell you what.

It was calculated to deliver 3 hours of maximum irritation and inconvenience…

Hundreds of Pro-Palenstinian [sic] protestors shut down the Manhattan Bridge in both directions, demanding a permanent cease-fire in Gaza, during one of the busiest travel days of the year.

On Sunday, the group blocked off the Manhattan bridge, causing a nightmare for drivers as traffic came to a complete stand still in both directions as New Yorkers were traveling home after the Thanksgiving holiday.

…on a holiday weekend, and it surely delivered. I also realized I recognized the “organizers” of this revolting and inconsiderate display of faux passion and hypocritical hyperbole..

…Organizers with the anti-Zionist group Jewish Voice For Peace (JVP) estimate more than 1,500 protesters blocked traffic on the bridge connecting lower Manhattan to Brooklyn as they chanted “let Gaza live” and other messages calling for a permanent ceasefire in the Palestinian territory where Israel and Hamas have warred since October.

The demonstration came on one of the heaviest travel days of the year. And it followed a series of orchestrated pro-ceasefire disruptions, including sit-ins at Grand Central station and marches timed to snarl traffic and maximize commuter disruption.

“We know that business-as-usual can’t continue while the US government is continuing to fund and fuel genocidal attacks against the Palestinians of Gaza,” a JVP spokesperson, Jay Saper, told the Guardian on Monday. “We know that taking mass action is necessary to help build international outcry that can stop the bombings permanently.”

Jewish Voice for Peace – ah, yes. The Soros funded Code Pink group I profiled at the end of last month when they shut down Grand Central Station at rush hour. The group who had some of their more notorious supporters in tow.

…You know who else was in the crowd of peace loving Jewish types supporting butchering, sadistic murderers shutting down life and freedom of movement for productive members of society? Why, someone who was an ambushing, butchering murderer herself.

Supporters who had murder convictions for helping to kill police officers. How nice to have your own little cadre of on-call domestic terrorism experts, no?

Well, gosh if Jewish Voice for Peace wasn’t front and center with their Death Squad again yesterday. As I looked at the staged photo of the ringleaders spread across the face of Manhattan Bridge, who do I immediately recognize on the left hand side of the picture?

None other than Linda Sarsour, the very face of Jew-hate herself.

Gosh. Seems like a lot of folks picked the despicable creature out, too.

She’s so well-known in certain quarters, they even featured her weepy emoting in their videos promoting the “interfaith” protest action.

What a crock.

The “Julia Salazar” referenced in the above tweet and who posted the one below it with the bridge video? Perhaps you’ll remember who she is if I give your memory a little nudgie. She seems to have some really odd staff problems.

…New York State Senator Julia Salazar fired a staffer who endorsed the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel.

The decision came Monday morning, according to the Albany Times Union, after Salazar had distanced herself from the comments by Sarah Campbell, her communications and policy director.

According to screenshots published by the New York Post on Saturday, Campbell wrote the phrase “by any means necessary” on her personal account on X, formerly known as Twitter, on October 7. The phrase is seen as justifying Hamas’ violence and has been used by protest groups in New York that celebrated the attack and that call for Israel’s destruction.

…The Post also reported that Isabel Anreus, Salazar’s chief of staff, liked an October 7 post that said, “The stuff happening in Palestine really cheers me up.” During the attack, Hamas terrorists slaughtered approximately 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and took more than 200 people captive. Anreus’ account is also now private.

Salazar, a Democrat who represents north Brooklyn, was elected to the State Senate as a member of the Democratic Socialists of America in 2018. The group’s New York City branch came under fire for endorsing a rally held in Times Square on October 8, before Israel had fully launched its counteroffensive in Gaza, that backed the Palestinian “right to resist.”

Just another good little Jew-hating, elected Democratic socialist. New York is bristling with them.

As well chock full o’ politicians who have huge Jewish constituencies. Yet they continue to promote these anti-Semitic, terrorist sympathizers while hounding the few true freedom fighters we have left. Even to the point of not knowing which one is the actual anti-Semite. Witness the New York City comptroller’s ignorance.

Or is he on orders from the DNC and others?

After all, if POTATUS apologized for slighting the scrupulously accurate casualty figures Hamas puts out, what kind of message about the rest of these truly bad actors does that send?

And then there’s the obvious comparisons to the situation.

Butchering terrorist lovers of a feather seem bound to flock together these days, and with little to no repercussions. It’s as if the vermin have crawled out of their holes, with the large groups allowing them to show their faces and shout the vilest of rhetoric they haven’t been able to in public for years. It’s all invariably organized by the same cover groups over and over again, and there’s no “interfaith” about it other than hate – pure and simple.

It’s as plain as the company they keep who they really are.
