An American flag was burned and Hamas flags were flown at a Times Square anti-Israel protest on Wednesday, according to footage published by Within Our Lifetime.

A US flag could be seen burning on the ground as a white Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades flag was waved above it during a protest against a pro-Israel event honoring former IDF spokesperson Lt.-Col. (res) Jonathan Conricus.
 
A green Al-Qassam flag could be seen in another video posted on X by the anti-Israel group as could a standard Hamas flag.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

Be sure to note it wasn't the US media that posted the report.   :nono:

I know many consider the burning of the US flag a right, but I consider it criminal.

Sorry, that level of freedom of speech or expression is flat out wrong when such a large element of the population have zero patriotic instinct.

Burn the US flag, one year in prison, no early release.  And branded a felon for life.  I do not think that unreasonable.  Burning the flag moves beyond peaceful demonstration to what I consider violent demonstration, and there is no place for that in the USA.
