Times Square is evacuated after a grenade was found in the back of Uber as anti-Israel protestors make their way through New York City preventing NYPD from reaching the device.

An Uber driver turned to look in the backseat after dropping a passenger off on 42nd Street and 7th Avenue in Times Square and saw the explosive device.

The driver notified the police just after 4 pm and NYPD deployed the Emergency Services Unit and the Bomb Squad to the scene.

Anti-Israel protestors were marching through the streets and blocking traffic at the time of the emergency.

So it begins?

"The grenade was believed to be inert, according to a police source."

They'll never tell the truth if it was real.

RE: Anti-Israel protestors were marching through the streets and blocking traffic at the time of the emergency.

In one of the BLM protests in Oregon the streets were totally blocked and the EMT first responders got out and pleaded with the protesters blocking traffic to just let the ambulance through because a boy was hanging on to life and they had to get him to emergency surgery immediately. They said “no” and kept chanting.

Okay, then every scare just assume the bomb is a fake and the grenade is “inert” and the automatic weapons have blanks. And the screaming bearded guy with a blade shouting the ‘Allahu Akbar’ stuff is harmless.

Takes pressure off.

Can you say ‘Muhamedan false flag?’

I knew you could.

Guiliani would have never tolerated this.

NYC is a powder-keg, and the elected officials have all the leadership of a caboose. I honestly believe that some type of bomb will explode that will kill hundreds, possibly thousands of people.

I would have 100% run them over without a second thought. Then let them decide if they’re going to let the next ambulance through to reach their friends.

And, if it happens to Palin protesters, who do you think will get blamed by the fascio-communists in NY and PedoJoe? ISRAEL!

Or, if it is a group of Jews killed, what will the same crowd say? ‘It was ISRAEL’s fault because of their ‘massacre’ in Gaza, and their ‘genocide’ of Palis’.

In both cases, the fascio-commies will blame Israel.

Sorry. ‘Palin’ should read ‘Pali’. Auto(in)correct in action yet again!

Notice that in media it is always, “Anti-Israel” and never “Pro-Arab?”

I remember that and now, with mail in voting, Oregon has Gov. Kotex- a vile transplant from CA. Portland has turned into one of the largest shit holes in the US. People and businesses are leaving Portland in droves, There are still plenty of sane people left in Oregon who will vote for Trump. The problem is that the Kotex people will CHEAT and stuff the ballot boxes. The county I live in went for Trump.

Could have been a dry run, before the real thing, to see how the pd reacts...

Remember the dry run Jame Wood observed, that the fbi and pretty much every other LEO wrote off as nothing?

And the islamic jihadist have been known to setup multiple bombs, that explode after the first responders appear on the scene.

Right you are. Just like Covid was an unfortunate accident involving a stupid lab tech and a bat. Yeah, right. Sure.

And now a word from George Carlin:
