NYU law student president defaces posters of Hamas hostages after blaming Israel for terror attack
Will universities clean house of antisemitic profs? Don’t bet on itA masked anti-Israel protester was caught on video repeatedly spitting on a banner bearing the word “Jewish” during a rally outside NYU’s library Thursday.
In response, the man in black pulls down his mask and spits a second time on the “Jewish” sign lying on the ground.The man with a large cross around his neck lowered his mask after being called a “coward” by outraged onlookers.As chants are heard in the distance, the masked demonstrator pumps his fist in the air, drawing comparisons to the Nazi salute from his critics.
In a caption accompanying the minute-long video, StopAntisemitism concluded that the observed conduct “is nothing short of horrifying Nazi like rhetoric of 1933 Germany.”It was not immediately known whether the masked man with the antisemitic sign was affiliated with NYU. A much smaller group of counter-protesters gathered on the sidelines of the main rally, waving Israeli flags and carrying signs featuring photos of hostages taken by Hamas terrorists during the Oct. 7 attack.
