NEW YORK, N.Y. — Pro-Palestine demonstrators temporarily shut down Grand Central Station on Monday in a disruptive protest coinciding with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to the White House, according to the New York Police Department and protest organizers.
The demonstration, organized by the group Within Our Lifetime, began outside the United Nations headquarters before protesters marched to Grand Central Terminal in Midtown Manhattan. Videos posted online show crowds blocking entrances and holding banners inside and outside the station.
U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy sharply criticized the protest and called for accountability. “Disgusting. These antisemitic mobs shutting down transit centers need to be condemned and the organizers should be held accountable,” Duffy wrote on X. “Now, they have to worry about pro-Hamas agitators. Enough is enough.”
Damn the news are so filled with pointless attention grabs that i dont even hear about this until days later.
You won’t hear about these protests from legacy media. JVP protests Israel in Grand Central all the time. Only passers-by know about it, which is why Grand Central is an ideal location.
I am seeing no coverage from any mainstream American news outlet. Only the “fringe independents” are covering it.
Israeli mainstream news such as Jpost did report on it. But their article is filled with quotes of the Zionist organization “Betar” which is telling Trump which Americans to deport. Very reliable stuff as usual.
In other news the IDF is organizing settler tours for the Syrian territories now.
Jpost is a shit tier paper in English. If the IDF shoots someone JPost will label the victim a terrorist regardless of the circumstance.
It’s not “pro-palestine”. It’s anti-genocide. The zios are murdering many more people than only palestinians, stealing more land than just palestine, etc.
Instead of saying “Zios” which is weird try calling them Israelis because it is the nation state of Israel and its citizens that are responsible for these crimes. My neighbor in NJ is a zionist but they aren’t murdering anyone or stealing land even if they support Israel doing so.
The genocide would not be possible if it wasn’t for the financial and rhetorical support of Christian Zionists like your neighbor. They may not directly murder anyone, but they do have blood on their hands.
Christian Zionists vastly outnumber Jewish individuals on this planet, and correspondingly, the majority of donations to pro-genocide groups like AIPAC come from Christian Zionists.
People like your neighbor are directly funding the genocide. Why wouldn’t they be culpable?
You know nothing about this person and yet you are deciding that because they support the existence of Israel they have blood on their hands? I think France should exist does that make me culpable in the enslavement of Haiti or their continual repression of Africa?
I never mentioned their faith, why are you deciding what it is? I said I come from NJ nothing more.
What makes you think they are funding Israel?
You have responded to so many things I never mentioned it is almost as if you are trying to hide something.
“My neighbor in NJ is a zionist but they aren’t murdering anyone or stealing land even if they support Israel doing so.”
You implied your neighbor supports Israel murdering Palestinians or stealing land. Your words, not those of Kronos.
my neighbor is Nazi who supports Nazis right to genocide, colonize and burn people to death based on their race or religon. He sees people burning and little babies blown uo and kids mutilated and cut up, and he just cheerish and celebrates it %100 , but he is a good Nazi on the inside and he personally never actually mutilated kids himself but this is where his heart is and what he believes in. He stands by Nazi genicidal aparthied state right to genocide and colonize but he is a good Nazi believe me. /s
This hypocrite does not understand what Zionism is. ISIS had the same idology as Zionism, and they even invited islamist extremists from all over the world for land and dual citizenship, and colonized and genocided syrian, kurdish, and iraqi christiians and muslims of other sectors. This user needs to read thw definition of Zionism and read history instead of his inhumane, evil, hypocrite and disgusting nonsense
because they support the existence of Israel they have blood on their hands?
Yes.
If “Zionist” means anything at all, it means support for Israel as it currently exists. This means support for Jewish supremacy, support for bombing campaigns against civilians in multiple nations, and support for a literal ongoing genocide. Anyone who lends support to these evils has blood on their hands.
You can try to move goalposts to say Zionist only means “israel has a right to exist”, but this is meaningless in context. I personally believe in a one-state solution where Palestinians have equal rights with Jews; a state where there is no apartheid, ethnic cleansing, nor aggression against neighboring countries. I would be fine with this hypothetical country keeping the name “Israel”. Does this make me a Zionist too? If so, the term is meaningless.
I never mentioned their faith, why are you deciding what it is?
You are right about this, I should have been more clear with my words. I was describing a hypothetical Christian Zionist, not your specific neighbor who might be Jewish, Muslim, or atheist. Whatever their faith may be, I condemn their Zionism.
Every accusation, smdh.
Disgusting. These antisemitic mobs shutting down transit centers need to be condemned and the organizers should be held accountable
