7,000 pro-Palestinian protesters take over Brooklyn Bridge, call for elimination of Jewish state: ‘By any means’

At least 7,000 pro-Palestinian protesters shut down the Brooklyn Bridge during a march through the borough Saturday, openly cheering Hamas terrorists’ barbaric attacks on Israel — and justifying the murders of innocent mothers and babies.

“Freedom by any means, land back by any means,” declared Dorian, a 24-year-old protester from Queens, during the three-mile Flood Brooklyn for Gaza march, which began at 3 p.m. in front of the Brooklyn Museum in Crown Heights, not far from the Hasidic Lubavitcher headquarters on Eastern Parkway, where a Sabbath festival was being held.

“I believe the settler state of Israel must be taken down,” he said.

The demonstrators — holding signs with antisemitic slogans such as “From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will be Free,” and “F—k Israel, Justice Palestine” — headed north along Flatbush Avenue to the Barclays Center, and then converged on the Brooklyn Bridge, stopping traffic on the Manhattan-bound side around 6 p.m. as some scaled metal barriers and triumphantly waved Palestinian flags.

Earlier, Marie Edward, 67, of Sunset Park, held a sign reading “Zionism is terrorism” while watching others march along Eastern Parkway.

She accused Israelis of being the real “killers” and defended Hamas’ heinous Oct. 7 massacre.

“It’s not a question of ‘justified.’ If you are occupied, you fight back and do what they did…they will fight back,” she said.

Jason B., a Puerto Rico native living in the Big Apple, reiterated Edward’s sentiment, saying Israel was using the hostages as an excuse to wipe out the Palestinian people in Gaza.

“I’m in support of the solidarity of the Palestinian people because the genocide of now, I mean, there’s been so many times I can push you before you push back right?” said Jason, who was decked out in Palestinian accessories...

If 100 conservatives gathered together in public, you would find 500 FBI agents in the near vicinity.

The heritage of the FBI was to inform and spy on everyone and I’m sure they and DHS are out there.

In the 1960’s Martin Luther King, the Klan and the Nazis and Communists protesting the Vietnam War all spied on.

DHS is Neocon invention part of the movement to start war with Iran

If they can connect the dots of this stuff with Iran it will sell their narrative.

So Edward Snowden was right. They stopped monitoring foreign threats. Our intelligence agencies instead have focused on what they considered to be their "internal enemies".

Israel ain't going nowhere. Can a nation be formed in a day? Can a land be born in one day? Can a nation be brought forth at once? For as soon as Zion was in labor, she gave birth to her children. 9 “Will I bring the moment of birth, and not give delivery?” says Adonai. Isaiah 66: 7.

Iran is already at war with us. And every Christian/ Jew/Animist/Hindu on the planet. Time we started defending ourselves rather than funding them. If that makes the adults in the room "Neocons", so be it. Fact is, those using that word here on FR don't even know what it meant.

Probably, and maybe they joined the protest.

We are where we are at. Erdogan is angling for something so I hope Neocon Deep State Central can figure out what the Turkish stance on this is among other things.

You’re not wrong. I think in the future, people will look back to now and say “The 3rd WW had started by then. What is scaring me is how nonchalantly those younger and thus, not as wise as most of us here, talk about nuclear war. I don’t think they understand. They don’t get it.

Round them all up and deport them. They are going to create a conflict here with whomever disagrees with them.

"...like it's 1938..." or, perhaps like it's 9/12.

Imagine all sides filled with heavy trucks and they just drive across the bridge. Imagine how many problems could have been elimimated if this occurred.

Y’all know there is not a nation on the Earth that wants anything to do with Palestinians.
Tells you something.
They are too stupid to realize they are dead.
