Protesters flood NYC’s Trump Tower to demand Mahmoud Khalil’s release

A large group of anti-Israel protesters crowded the dining area at Trump Tower on Thursday afternoon, rallying for the release of former Colombian student and protest mastermind Mahmoud Khalil.

The video shows a crowd of at least 100 people – from the voices of Jews of the pro-Palestinian group for peace – wearing a red shirt decorated with the message “Jews stop arming Israel.”
