Monday marks one year since Hamas terrorists’ brutal attack on Israel — killing 1,200 innocent Israelis and taking 250 hostage — that incited war in the region. Ninety-seven hostages are still being held captive in Gaza.
A crowd of anti-Israel protesters started the day marching from Wall Street in Lower Manhattan to Uptown.
In the afternoon, a pro-Israeli demonstrator was surrounded, attacked and bloodied by a pro-Palestinian crowd, as thousands mobbed the streets of Manhattan on the anniversary of the Oct. 7, 2023, terror attack on the Jewish State.
Todd Richman, co-founder Democratic Majority of Israel, was seen on social media holding an Israeli flag while a mob of protesters mock him and try to wrest the flag from him.
Richman is seen trying desperately trying to stand his ground as the keffiyeh-draped protesters mock and accost him.
“The mob then gangs up on him, with one striking Rochman and leaving him with a bloody nose.
Police finally move in and disperse the crowd, which is heard shouting, “Get out of here,” and one calling him “a baby killer.”
