Anti-Israel activists blockading traffic need real punishment #shorts

During Monday morning rush hour, dozens of anti-Israel activists decided to disregard the livelihoods and concerns of New Yorkers and tri-state commuters by simultaneously blocking traffic through the Holland Tunnel in Lower Manhattan and the Brooklyn, Manhattan and Williamsburg bridges. NY Post Contributor Adam B. Coleman shares this story. The “Shut It Down for Palestine” protesters held signs exclaiming “Lift the Siege of Gaza, Ceasefire Now” and “End the Occupation, Free All Palestinian Prisoners, USA Stop Arming Israel” while chanting “Free, free Palestine!” Some chained themselves together with concrete-filled tires. There are fewer individuals more scummy than those who believe they must disrupt the lives of others, even placing people in harm’s way, to achieve their desired political outcome. They rationalize their behavior by claiming it’s for a good cause, but causes that are worth advocating for don’t require holding innocent people hostage: This is a conscious choice made by narcissistic terrorists.

After all, the American public doesn’t have a say in the matter.
