An Abomination in New York

I saw this on the news last night and was sickened.  Here we are, getting rid of the murderous Ayatollah and trying to free the Iranian people, and this is the thanks we get.  If these "mourners" loved Khamenei so much, then why didn't they stay in Iran? Too bad these Jew-haters can't be sent back to Iran now, because we don't want them here, especially in New York City.

From The Times of Israel, 3-7-26: 

Protesters chant ‘Death to America, death to Israel’ at NYC vigil for Khamenei 

"Protesters in New York City chant “death to America, death to Israel,” in Farsi, at a protest honoring late Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in New York City.

"The protesters set up images of Khamenei on a table alongside flowers and candles, hold flags showing Jeffrey Epstein’s face, and hold signs that say, “solidarity with Iran.”

“We must live like the ayatollah did, with his heart for his people, and we must die like he did,” a speaker tells the crowd.

"Iranian counter-protesters chant “USA,” “terrorist,” and “Bibi thank you” from across a metal police barricade."

Anti-Iranian regime protester pummeled at deluded NYC vigil for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei 

"An anti-regime protester who wanted to “show up for the Iranian people” was thrown to the ground and beaten Friday at a sparsely attended Manhattan vigil for Iran’s dead Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

"While NYPD cops attempted to keep the two small groups separate, tension boiled over when Rami Even-Esh ripped down a picture of Khamenei at the demonstration in Washington Square Park.

“Take this down!” he shouted, as a swarm of the dictator’s sympathizers — some donning keffiyehs — knocked him down and kicked him, according to footage from FreedomNTV. 

"Cops quickly jumped in and placed him in handcuffs as blood gushed from the top of his nose.

“He’s a terrorist who’s killed American soldiers and I think it was insane that I was right there and there was a vigil so I just took the sign down. I felt that was the right thing to do,” the victim told The Post as cops led him away.

“I feel like someone should show up for the Iranian people.”

"Police said multiple people were taken into custody during the demonstration.

"About two dozen counter-protesters, some of Iranian descent or pro-Israel, also chanted “USA” and “death to the terrorist,” drowning out the roughly 25 mourners on hand for the detestable display of respect for the top cleric.

"The group commemorating the leader of the murderous regime claimed he defended the Iranian people — and they credited him for his bloodthirsty opposition to Israel.

"They also boasted his support for progressive causes, according to a vigil handout.

"Flowers lay on a table covered in a black and red keffiyeh. An Iranian flag and one with the depraved despot’s face on it were also flying.

"An Iranian woman who immigrated to the US said the pro-Khamenei protesters were clueless about the realities of the “terroristic regime.”
