“Christmas Is Canceled”: Scuffles, Arrests In NYC As Pro-Palestinian Protesters Storm Manhattan<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Pro-Palestinian protesters raged across New York City on Monday, apparently determined to piss Christians off on their most sacred holiday<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

“Christmas is canceled here,” they chanted, while parading a blood-red mock nativity scene<\/strong> through the streets, along with puppets of Israeli PM Bibi Netanyahu and US President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

“Long live the intifada,” the roughly 500 demonstrators yelled as they swarmed the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree where people were trying to enjoy the day.<\/p>\n

“While Ur Shopping Bombs are Dropping,” read one protester’s sign.<\/p>\n

“No Joy In Genocide,” read the mock Nativity scene, the NY Post<\/em><\/a> reports.<\/p>\n

As night fell, the protest intensified. Near St. Patrick\u2019s Cathedral, scuffles broke out, sending police officers dashing through the crowd in an effort to maintain order. <\/strong>Reports of arrests came from areas near Grand Central Station and Union Square, as tensions between protesters and law enforcement escalated.<\/p>\n

The Christmas Day demonstration targeting the Manhattan area popular with holiday revelers and tourists prompted cops to go on alert outside the News Corp headquarters on Sixth Avenue.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The building is home to Fox News, The Post, the Wall Street Journal and other company holdings.<\/em><\/p>\n

Protesters have targeted the media company in the past, including twice last month.<\/em><\/p>\n
