Pro-Palestinian protesters congregated on Fifth Avenue in New York City on Friday night to demand that Israel stop retaliating against Hamas, shouting: “‘Never again’ for anyone” after the most brutal massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.
Hundreds of demonstrators of all ages parked themselves on the steps of the New York Public Library to urge a “cease-fire, now!” as well as an end to Israel’s alleged apartheid and occupation of Palestinian land. The crowd grew so massive that police officers said it was blocking visitors from exiting the building.
“Never again means never again for anyone,” a Palestinian activist, who said he was Jewish, yelled into a bullhorn. “Never again means now.” The chant was repeated by the crowd.
The phrase “Never again” usually refers to the historical lessons learned from the attempted extermination of the Jews under the Nazi regime. Hamas, which killed over 1,400 Israelis and took hundreds of others hostage, explicitly calls in its charter for the eradication of Jews in Israel and around the world. In their barbaric onslaught on October 7, the Islamic terrorists also raped, tortured, maimed, burned alive, and kidnapped civilians.
However, signs at the demonstration indicated that participants accused Israel of being the aggressor. “Israel commits war crimes,” one sign read. “Apartheid will never be justified,” said another. “Zionism is terrorism,” another sign read.
