The son of late Holocaust survivor and Nobel Peace Prize winner Elie Wiesel says cops forced him to put away his Israeli flag as he confronted a pro-Palestinian demonstrator during a massive rally in Penn Station on Monday.
Elisha Weisel, 51, posted a video on X of himself draped in the flag while heatedly arguing with the protester, who wore a black mask over his face.

The Gestapo in action...
This business of cops violating people’s rights because some rando made a complaint call or to de-escalate a situation for their own convenience is really getting annoying.
If the cops forced all the pali flag carryers to put away their flags then it could be equitable, but it's doubtful that happened.
And just how did the cops force him to put the flag away?
Jews in America need only to read one thing and one thing only: The Second Amendment.
It’s high time for the Jewish community in America to learn something Christians learned a long time ago; ‘’Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition’’.

I work with a Jewish kid who told me he doesn’t ‘’believe’’ in guns.
I said to him “your enemies do’’.
