A small group of antisemitic protestors gathered across Chabad-Lubavitch World Headquarters in the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn, New York, on Sunday afternoon.
They set up across the street of 770 Eastern Parkway just as the local Jewish community was participating in a Siyum Sefer Torah ceremony in memory of Rabbi Moshe Kotlarsky OBM.
The protestors arrived holding the Palestinian flag and a black-and-white Puerto Rican flag, indicating their connection with the anti-Israel movement and Black Lives Matter movement.
A sign they held up mentioned names of people like George Floyd who were alleged victims of law enforcement brutality. Another sign called to “End racial and religious profiling.”
Officers of the New York Police Department quickly arrived you the scene to avoid a possible backlash like the last such anti-Israel protest drew last month.
Shmira neighborhood patrol reported the police moved the protest towards Nostrand Avenue and away from the 770 Shul.
The group of approximately 35 protestors are currently walking on Eastern Parkway towards Nostrand Ave.
There are only about 20 protesters, I hope no that one goes to give them the attention that they are desperately seeking.
No warning or planning was made online for this protest, catching the NYPD and community by surprise
The community and NYPD chased them out right away. Crown Heights doesn’t need an online heads up to defend our community. We don’t need to schedule in advance a time to chase away terrorist supporters.
What happen to permits…
It just free for all

Each protestor is receiving funds
They should go after the soure
Cut the heads
Name them and shame them
Arrest them all and report them to africa
Deport them to Africa
Moving all the gazans there currently
It’s called anti Semitic protest not anti Israeli
What does George Floyd have to do with Palestine?
All was good. Thankfully no one paid attention to them and they left

Do what the Rebbe said! speak out for the truth and against Zionism. Don’t parade Ben Gvir who does not have our Lubavitch hashkafos around 770 and the Rebbe’s Shchuna as if he is some rosh yeshiva!
The rebbe welcomed Israeli leaders and supported Israel defending themselves and the rebbe went as far to say about not giving away land that if you give them a finger they’ll want a hand. The rebbe was not a zionist bec the israeli govt is built on secular principles and when moshiach comes the beis hamikdash will be in eretz yisrael,until than it’s in 770. But the rebbe supported the isreali state defending themselves and not giving away land ti the Arabs anf the rebbe welcomed Israeli leaders and told them to stay strong.
The Rebbe welcomed leaders from EY regardless of their political bend
He did not give a microphone to any israeli politician to speak in 770.
zalman shazar as president of israel was at a farbrengen and the Rebbe did not offer him the mike to make a speech
ben gvir is welcome to visit 770, the Ohel just like l’havdil trump or any other political leader.
giving him a platform to speak in the Rebbe’s shul was a nivul, disgusting act done by people who don’t understand nuance and common sense
Exactly thank you
The Rebbe welcomed every person and gave them the time of day. People came TO THE REBBE. For the Rebbe. They came as any simple person comes to visit a great person.
They were NOT given a platform as a political figure by the Rebbe.
The Rebbe never got involved in Israeli politics. The Rebbe was involved in Torah Tefilla Tzedaka Emes and Ahavas Yisroel, so if the Rebbe can be the leader then anyone can come.

You’re a disgrace. Why don’t you go join those protesters.
Look carefully who they are, and who they represent.
They are so obviously lost, losers in there families, destitutes paid off I bet say $50 to show up wearing typical masks and headscarf’s, I truly want to vomit at the appalling spectacle, and a sorry spectacle is what it is.
Thank goodness we just watch the stupidity of these “marches” , without countering, what a pathetic group of losers indeed.
the soyum sefer torah came and blocked them
We should not be posting such stupidity on Jewish Websites!
They do not deserve attention.
I was across the street with 2,000 beautiful people at the Siyum Sefer Torah honoring a great person!
Let’s leave 35 people to themselves & not waste anyone’s time.
If they aren’t actively getting in the way of your lives, just ignore them. They thrive on attention, everyone makes a whole hullabo with shomrim and shmira. They shouldn’t be there to give them attention. They are like toddlers kevtching if you ignore it, it goes away. It’s really not that hard
These are paid agitators. Some could be making more money and get paid to recruit. Think about it. 80% of this group would not do a basic favor, like donate their time for a REAL cause. Ask them to buy a homeless guy a lunch. Never. Give a dollar, they wouldn’t even give 50 cents. Because most are lost souls, desperate to make a few bucks and convince themselves that they’re doing some kind of BS “justice” work bla bla. Why the masks? Some are trying very hard to CONCEAL their identity — why? 1. They are doing something bad… Read more »
So we now have a pattern: The current Mayor supports “seperating the 2 groups by force”. The Democrat Mayoral candidates think this is too restrictive on minorities, and want the Jews penned in and rebuked. CURTIS SLIWA doesn’t have to wink to let you know what his policing directives are! This November, vote Conservative and Republican all the way down.
It’s the same people reading these kinds of articles and commenting on these kinds of comments that dont understand the rebbes approach to israeli politics. get a mashpia. ask your elders.
שאל אביך ויגדך זקניך ויאמרו לך
Another bunch of do-nothings with nothing to do, agitating for a moment of fame, or whatever… Hey there, go get a life, will you? You can start by thinking for yourselves objectively and finding something to do that would actually make you into a better person. But, no, joining a group of Blame-Everyone-Else do- nothings that like to think they’re coming across as so “integilint” is so much easier and more fun…
