The anti-Israel protests in New York City have only grown since Hamas attacked Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023.

As we previously wrote, even comedian-actor Jerry Seinfeld was caught up in the gang's ire, which was likely aimed at journalist Bari Weiss' appearance at an event on Manhattan's Upper East Side over the weekend. My colleague Nick Arama wrote:

So they were upset that Seinfeld dared to show up to listen to Weiss and others at the event. 

As he left the event, they screamed at him, "Genocide supporter, you support genocide!" and "Free Palestine!"

Things haven't gotten any better a day later. An anti-police protest in a New York park morphed into an anti-Israel protest on Monday:

President Joe Biden and the Democrats have their own problem with the radical left wing of the party when it comes to the Israel-Hamas war, as well. Advance word got out that Biden would be in NYC to tape an appearance on a late-night talk show on Monday.

 So, anti-Israel protesters showed up and tried to disrupt "Late Night with Seth Meyers" on Monday afternoon with chanting and a sit-in inside Rockefeller Center, where NBC Studios are located:

It appeared to be promoted by a group called Jewish Voice for Peace NYC, which boasted that "50 Jewish New Yorkers" were arrested:

The group Jewish Voice for Peace NYC posted pictures of the protesters on social media. Some wore shirts saying, “cease fire now,” while holding a banner with the words “Jews to Biden: Stop Arming Genocide.”

“Hundreds of Jews and allies are taking over NBC’s famed 30 Rockefeller Center headquarters in NYC to disrupt President Biden’s appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers. @POTUS deadly foreign policy has funded and armed genocide in Gaza,” the group wrote.

Polls and focus groups have shown during the 2024 presidential primaries that one of the Biden campaign's weaknesses is overcoming progressive qualms about the Administration's support for Israel. This protest targeting the eventual nominee of the Democrat Party is just the latest sign that they are going to continue to have trouble with the activist Left, including in November. No doubt they are scrambling to come up with a solution on this--sooner rather than later. Whenever there's left-on-left infighting, you love to see it.
