Riotous Zionism: NYC Erupts

On April 24th, a violent clash erupted in Brooklyn during an appearance by Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir at a pro-Zionist religious gathering. A large mob, characterized as Zionist-fascist thugs numbering over a hundred, attacked pro-Palestinian protesters who were demonstrating against Ben-Gvir's presence. The unprovoked assault resulted in injuries to multiple individuals, including the pro-Palestinian protesters. In addition to targeting the demonstrators, the mob also attacked a bystander who was caught in the crossfire, and even assaulted a police officer who was attempting to maintain order and control the situation. The event underscores the highly charged atmosphere surrounding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the tensions it generates, even within communities far removed from the region. The incident sparked outrage and condemnation from various groups, highlighting the growing polarization and potential for violence arising from the ongoing conflict. find the original article here: https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/04/30/pupg-a30.html
