At the heart of New York: a ceremony in memory of Nasrallah

If you happened to be in Washington Square Park today, you might have come across a memorial for Hezbollah’s Hassan Nasrallah, coinciding with his funeral in Beirut. Openly supporting terrorists remains all too prevalent these days. pic.twitter.com/FfCvWWCnlp

“This anti-Semitic demonstration is out of bounds. Respect for terrorists is abominable and despicable. There is no room for hatred in New York,” said New York Mayor Eric Adams to JNS. The UN Ambassador Ellis Stefnik added: “Extreme Hezbollah supporters have come to New York streets to praise Nasrallah, whose terrorist has slaughtered thousands around the world. It was never more important to condemn this moral low. As Trump has clarified, anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli will not be suffered. “

“If you have arrived at Washington Square today, you may have seen a position in memory of Nasrallah. Postcard support for terrurtists is still common today,” wrote Oren Segal, the league’s vice president against the defamation (ADL). In front of Nasrallah’s memory, about 100 pro-Israeli protesters demonstrated with Israeli and US flags. They sang hope, alongside the US anthem and other songs.

NOW: “USA! USA!” Counter-protesters chant at Pro-Palestine protesters during a vigil for Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, Former secretary-general of Hezbollah, while gathering at Washington Square Park NYC.
