Some of the speakers were from the Palestinian Assembly for Liberation, Palestinian Youth Movement, Plaza Proletaria, etc..
The rally was at 5th Ave and 72nd Street in Bay Ridge. After the rally, people marched through many different streets in the same neighborhood. Muslims prayed during the march. They ended the march at the Leif Ericson Park (5th Ave and 67th Street) where they had the vigil “HONOR THE MARTYRS OF GAZA.”
There were many New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers. NYPD cops harassed peacefully protesters and I, a journalist. NYPD officers didn’t want Palestine supporters and journalists in the street, but there were many NYPD police officers walking in the street and blocking cars. NYPD officers of the notoriously violent Strategic Response Group (SRG) were in the rally and march.
“The NYPD’s Strategic Response Group or the SRG is a notoriously violent rapid response unit. Despite promises from the department that the unit would not be deployed at protests, the SRG has consistently threatened, attacked, and arrested protesters. Time and time again, when the SRG arrives on the scene, officers escalate situations and injure New Yorkers who are exercising their First Amendment rights,” says www.nyclu.org.
One of the NYPD Latina officers was Delilah F. Beniquez. Badge: 11690. She was very aggressive. On 50-a.org it says that there are 6 complaints and 10 allegations against her. Why is Beniquez still in the NYPD? Taxpayers should not pay officers like Beniquez. www.50-a.org/officer/T7CM
The NYPD has at least one office in occupied Palestine (Tel Aviv, Israel).
The boss of NYPD officers is zionist, (corrupt?) NYC mayor Eric Adams. Zionist Adams supports zionist, apartheid, genocide israel. Zionist Eric Adams supports zionist, white supremacist Donald Trump. The trial against zionist Adams starts in April 2025.
“Honor the victory of our Resistance, the steadfastness of Gaza, and the liberation of our political prisoners with our community in Bay Ridge,” said Palestinian Assembly for Liberation [PAL]-Awda NY/NJ on Instagram before the protest.

Egypt, Jordan Reject Trump Plan to “Clean Out” Gaza; Palestinians Return to N. Gaza in Historic Day
“As survivors in Gaza begin to return to their homes during the first ceasefire in over a year, we speak to Sharif Abdel Kouddous of Drop Site News about the future of those who have been displaced. As Palestinians are “returning to a devastated landscape … determined not to leave their land” in defiance of “plans of ethnic cleansing that have dated back to the 1950s for Israel,” President Trump told reporters that he wants to “clean out” Gaza, suggesting that Palestinian Arabs should be ethnically cleansed into Egypt and Jordan. Both countries have “rejected this, and they’ve done so since the beginning of this genocidal assault,” says Kouddous.”_Democracy Now!
