Thousands Protesting NUT JOB'S Speech in New York

Thousands of demonstrators took to the streets of Midtown Manhattan on Thursday in protest of Israel’s war in Gaza and its recent strikes on Lebanon, denouncing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, who had arrived in New York ahead of a scheduled Friday address to the U.N. General Assembly.

Several protests overlapped throughout the day, with the largest winding through Manhattan’s streets and stopping traffic. Tensions between police officers and protesters flared after dark on the Upper East Side, where roughly a dozen protesters were arrested over the course of several hours.

The demonstrations, organized by several pro-Palestinian groups including Within Our Lifetime and Jewish Voice for Peace, were peaceful and largely orderly for most of the day but escalated after one group of protesters made its way uptown from Grand Central Terminal.
