On Tuesday night, anti-Israel agitators descended into a predominantly Jewish neighborhood in Borrow Park, Brooklyn, ostensibly protesting the real estate event.
In fact, they are protesting the very existence of the Jewish state, and the Jews are written widely.
You don't know that from that violent scene, but there is a ceasefire now in force in Gaza.
It has been going on for more than a month to promote exchanges with hundreds of Palestinian terrorists who spend their time committing attacks.
Brooklyn protesters don't want peace, but they want destruction and more death.
“There's only one Intifada Revolution, Intifada Revolution,” the organizers cried through the megaphone.
The crowd cried out, “Settlers, settlers, go home, Palestine is ours.”
These violent protests did not occur in the vacuum.
After over 500 days of uncertainty, they came as the Jewish world was caught up in learning the fate of the Vivas family.
The October 7, 2023 video, Shiri Bibas and her two young redheaded sons, Ariel, 4, Kfir, 9 months old, flashed all over the world, a symbol of the true descent of the attack .
Now comes the words that their bodies and the bodies of Oded Lifshitz, the elderly hostages, will be returned to Israel under the ceasefire agreement.
As a mother of a young redheaded child, I saw the children being reflected in the image of a boy in Vivas.
My baby and KFIR were the same age. After October 7th, when I put him to bed every night, I try to imagine how Siri put KFIR to bed.
Did he have a crib, or did he have a bottle?
Whenever I carry two small things and tired my arms, my heart goes to Siri. How she took these boys near her for hours and how she carried them to Gaza. How must her arms burn?
But she brought them closer. That's true for any mother.
Like a mother shouldn't.
We never know the horrors Siri and her young sons faced. Their story died with them.
“How many children did you kill today?” they chanted in the streets of Brooklyn.
However, the lives of Jewish children who are buried in Israel after their bodies have been detained for more than a year, do not import them to the horrible people about their children.
“The Zionists go to hell,” another chant that passed through Rose Park on Tuesday was particularly grotesque.
Many Israelis quote the 1903 poem, “The Massacre,” by Chime Nachman Biarik, a national poet.
Biarik wrote, “Such revenge – revenge against the blood of a small child – has not yet been devised by Satan.”
Hell is reserved not for those who support the existence of the Jewish state, but for those who kill children and their mothers in cold blood.
Protesters who appeared in Borough Park were hoping to stick out and abuse the Jews who lived there. I tried to slam my car into the Jews at the intersection of 14th and 37th Avenues.
They were there for a rude awakening.
The Jewish community fought back as members physically defended their families and homes.
They revealed that, as former Israeli Prime Minister, Prime Minister Menachem, had once said, “I am not a Jew with a trembling knee.”
The New York Police Department joined them to protect Jewish residents from the violence that the anti-Israel activist group Pal Auda attempted to inflict on the orthodox enclave.
“Back to Europe” was frequently refrained from anti-Semitic protesters for months starting October 7th. If Jews' claims about Israel's lands are outlawed, hatred hopes that Jews will return to the lands where they faced the worst crimes in human history. .
Tuesday's protesters recreated the scene from Nazi Germany and sought to inflict pain on immunized Jews.
But times changed, and Jews confronted them and were defended by the NYPD and American politicians.
Hamas' attacks on Israel created a new kind of Jewish species. We now understand that the existential threat to our existence is not history. They are here for our day.
We see people in our own city seeking our destruction and are rioting in support of those who have committed the worst Jewish massacre since the Holocaust.
On the eve of Israel, these deserted people who recovered the body of their baby and their infant and their mother murdered in Gaza were attempting to seek an open season in New York Jews.
But now, when these anti-Semites threaten, it is better to be ready to face after the octo. 7 Jews. Protesters at Rose Park tasted them Tuesday night.
