Hundreds of pro-Hamas activists took to the streets of New York City on Christmas Day in a show of force on the nation’s most sacred holiday, chanting “Long live the intifada” and clashing with police.
The mob of reportedly around 500 disrupted the traditional revelry as they harassed revelers near the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree where families and tourists marked the day of Jesus’ birth, demanding a ceasefire in Gaza and bearing a blood-red Nativity replica and waving Palestinian flags.
“Christmas is canceled here,” members of the mob chanted in a tense scene that prompted a Level 3 mobilization by the New York City Police Department, the second-highest level for the city’s beleaguered law enforcement officers who according to some reports, clashed with the demonstrators.
Video was posted to social media showing scenes of the mob action on a holy day that was defiled by increasingly aggressive left-wing miscreants who in addition to Gotham, also staged similar events in other U.S. cities to demand a ceasefire in Gaza.

The Daily Mail reported that the NYPD confirmed that the “Level Three” mobilization was called as a response to the mob protests.

“Level three mobilization is the second highest alert level in the NYPD, meaning all special units are called into action and squad cars are sent out from every command center in the city,” the outlet reported. There were also reports of officers who were injured during the day although details and the numbers are unclear.

In addition to the New York City protests, activists reportedly harassed Biden administration officials in their homes where they were celebrating the holiday with their families with Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan being targeted.
“Austin, Austin, rise and shine, no sleep during genocide,” chanted the anti-Israel activists outside of the Pentagon boss’s home.

The pressure is mounting on President Joe Biden to force a ceasefire before the terrorist organization has been completely wiped out and activists aren’t going to stop until they get their way.
