Israeli and Palestinian supporters clashed in New York City on Tuesday evening amid escalating violence overseas between the two bitter enemies which has left at least 38 people dead in the Middle East.

Footage taken outside the Israeli consulate in Manhattan shows protesters fighting over barricades as police struggle to keep the two groups apart. Consulate workers were sent home earlier in the day due to safety fears.

Other video clips show fights breaking out in the streets of New York City as punches are thrown. One man was pictured covered in blood after he was hit with a chair during the bitter confrontations.

I’m thinking Ashli Babbitt’s killer was the one that ANOTHER cop heard saying “I’m gonna get me one”

At least now I know what that “flag” is. Some guy was driving down the main street yesterday here beeping his horn constantly and hold that flag out the car window. (I thought it was for Puerto Rico.)

“I am 30 miles west of Boston, and housing prices here have been skyrocketing!”

30 to 60 miles seem to be a prime exodus retreat mileage for those buying homes here to avoid the Big Blue disaster cities.

We do have some formerly NYC workers/lived there, people. They were the early exodus people when the pandemic and riots broke a year plus ago.

Many of the new buyers are from Gay Frisco, Oakland and Sillycon Valley.

My wife has a niece, who is a realtor in the middle of nowhere in the midwest, 2-3+ hours from any big blue city.

She has sold more homes in the last year than her previous 2 plus decades. She has a waiting list of buyers and people wanting to rent an apartment in the complex, she owns.

The deployment of regular army troops to Chicago, (and others) to control civil disorder by Democrat President Johnson!

..Of course the Chicago Police under Mayor Daily handled the situation, their way!

"Summer of 2021—Let’s do it again, Democrat, Mayors and Governors!"

The de Blasios of the world have really overplayed their hands. People who were just hanging on out of inertia have gotten the message. There was a news clip recently where colored folks demonstrated outside a restaurant patio in Brooklyn Heights (gentrified Brooklyn), shouting “Get out! Get out!”

When the white folks all gone, who the Hell do they think are going to pay the bills? Or sew up their kids when they knife and shoot each other. NYC has gone full Zimbabwe.
