Palestinian’s Flags with Hamas’ Flag Was Waved in Bay Ridge
Tonight the Palestinians were charged up and chanting on 5th Avenue and 68th Street in Bay Ridge.
There was no counter-protesters as the flyer claimed.
The Palestinian flags waved in the wind on the Avenue. Within Our Lifetime shared this flag and slogan: “Raise the flag of revolution high.” (See the video)
Sadly, there was one of Hamas’ flags waving with them (it’s the green flag with the white writing).
Hey @JustinBrannan is this in your district where the the flag of H-mas, a US State Dept-designated terr-rist group is being waved?

The 68th Precinct was very responsive to protecting the mosque and making sure that everyone was safe.
People in the community feared a clash because Councilman Brannan and Senator Gounardes did not announce that two protests were coming to the area and people felt they and the police didn’t know. Brannan’s busy campaigning and Gounardes is retweeting his posts on Twitter because the Democratic Party isn’t responding to his tweets.
