A crowd of over 500 protestors shouted “Long live the intifada,” as they surrounded the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree where revellers were enjoying the holiday.
‘While You’re Shopping, Bombs Are Dropping,’ read one of the signs carried by the protesters.
‘No Joy in Genocide,’ another sign stated, placed atop the faux Nativity scene. This scene was splattered with what appeared to be fake blood, and several demonstrators carried it on their shoulders.
After witnessing scenes of rampage and ugly sloganeering throughout the day, the protests turned violent by night. Many scuffles broke out in the crowd outside St. Patrick’s Cathedral, prompting police to run through the mob.
