A member of the Israel on Campus Coalition went undercover at one of many pro-Hamas, free-Palestine rallies taking place in New York City. This gathering was in Manhattan, which voted over 86% for Joe Biden in 2020. We are told that the people protesting are NOT antisemitic and DON'T hate the Jews. They are just holding mostly peaceful protests to criticize the Israeli government.

Though, there are still "critics" who say it's nothing but antisemitism. ICC was determined to find out if this is still about freeing Palestine? Or hating Jews?

Two points of information. This is a tweet from the ICC:

And this is a tweet from the Biden Administration highlighting their priorities:

During this undercover video, the TikToker was told the following words and phrases when asked how the rallies would describe Jews: "Devils," "at fault," "a problem," and "shout out to Kanye West." All odd ways to describe how you only have criticisms about the Israeli government.

Another big question was, if we were to free Palestine, where should all the Jews go? One option given was to go back to Brooklyn. The other option was to go to hell. Unclear is which would be the worst option since, in Brooklyn last weekend, Jews were advised to stay inside and lock their doors because NYC authorities couldn't guarantee their safety. Brooklyn only voted 77% for Joe Biden in 2020.

And, of course, there was a Queer for Palestine who, while admitting that Palestine isn't the safest place for anyone from the LGBs to the AIIPs, it's not safe for them in New York City either. They/them (I would hate to misgender anyone) got confused when it was pointed out that being L or G in Palestine is punishable by death. Let alone, being any of the other letters. Or whatever the deuce the "+" is in "LGBTQAIIP+."

Since most people who attend these Free Palestine rallies refuse to show their faces as they do nothing but criticize the Israeli government, it was easy for the TikToker to move through the crowd safely.

Thank goodness for that. Has something happened to him, had he been attacked by the mob, I would hate to think of all the Islamophobia that would result from it.
