TikTokker arrested after wrecking Greek flags at NJ restaurant thinking they were Israeli
NY Post ^ | Oct. 24, 2024, | Anna Young

An anti-Israel TikTokker who amassed millions of views for wrecking a decorative string of Greek flags that she confused for Israeli outside a New Jersey eatery was busted for the ludicrous blunder.

Amber Matthews, 23, was charged with bias and intimidation on Tuesday for ripping down the Greek flags attached to the awning of Efi’s Gyro in Montclair on March 11, according to the Montclair Police Department.

Matthews, who goes by “Ambamelia” on social media, posted the video of her hateful rage to TikTok on Oct. 15 — more than seven months after the incident — which has since generated nearly 4.5 million views and millions more on X.

“Free Palestine, bitch!” she said loudly, asking confused-looking staff inside: “What you looking at?”

“You know there’s a genocide,” she barked at the cashier inside Efi’s, which bills itself as the “friendliest Greek restaurant in town.”

“I don’t stand for Zionism in Montclair!” she said proudly — while holding up a fistful of ripped-down Greek flags.

Two staff members eventually came out, looking confused and embarrassed for the hysterical hater — and one gently pointed out that the white and blue flags represent Greece, not Israel.

“What? Really? Oh, I thought it was Israel — my bad,” she responded.

Bring a Greek flag to the next pro-Israel demonstration. Like the Muslims often say, first the Saturday people, then the Sunday people.

I am not sure what to think about her posting the video.

I can only guess she was desperate for clicks.

But if she was stupid enough to commit the crime she is stupid enough to put up the video of her committing the crime.

Funny how she didn’t seem to show the same sort of
anger towards the Hamas terrorists that raped, mutilated,
burned, murdered 1200+ Israeli citizens and kidnapped what, 250-300 more? And then the kidnapped women are subjected to
repeated gang-rapes by Hamas terrorists.

But she wants people to think like her.
Because she’s smart, you know.
Has to be a supporter of Kamala Harris.

She wants to be famous. Maybe she wants people to send
her money. I hope she had to pay for all of the damage
that she did to that Greek restaurant.

Very disturbing 😳

I imagine she’s finding out.

Just wonder how many other stupid people think she’s “smart”

This is from a few weeks ago.

This Dunning-Kruger case needs to be questioned to find out what Propaganda Media outlet yelled "Fire" in a theater. CNN, MSNBC, or whichever it needs to charged as an accessory to this crime. You can't direct the mentally incompetent to do things and then claim innocence.

Oddly, I’d be honored to be attacked by a moron like this.

Means you are in the correct side.

“My bad”. The Hodge brothers (Conservative Twins) have a name for her and they can easily say it out loud. If I saw her doing what she did and then saying what she said, I might have called her it right there. Waiting to retire. Just that stupid-assed look on her...

In her defense, it’s called “pregnancy brain”. She’s likely a grandmother already.
