Peaceful New Yorkers have organized recurrent rallies and demonstrations outside Mini-Circuits headquarters since at least 2025 to demand it cut all military contracts.

“Mini-Circuits manufactures key components for genocide used across our homelands from Palestine to Venezuela. We will not stand by while corporations in our neighborhoods make profits off the blood of our martyrs. We call on everyone to join us in demanding that Mini-Circuits cuts all their military contracts. Join us on Friday!” said Pal-Awda NY on August 10, 2026.

On August 14, 2026, there were like 30 New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers at the protest.

NYPD officers created two “cages” using barricades. Peaceful pro-Palestine, anti-genocide New Yorkers were in the pen at the corner of Neptune Avenue and E 14th Street, while zionists supporting the zionist, apartheid, terrorist entity (Israel) were in the pen near the entrance to Mini-Circuits, roughly halfway down the block.

NYPD Captain Guzman was in charge of NYPD officers. Captain Guzman and other NYPD officers allowed zionists Ronen Levy, Ross Glick, Karen Lichtbraun and other zionists to leave their pen and go harass pro-peace, anti-war protesters, who were peacefully demonstrating in the pen created for them.

Why did NYPD cops create two cages if they were going to let zionists supporters of the Israel genocide and ethnic cleansing in Palestine and Lebanon go to harass, antagonize peaceful New Yorkers? Are NYPD officers at that protest zionists?

It appeared that Captain Jose L. Guzman (www.50-a.org/officer/VEJF) and Community affairs Detective Lauren Au, badge number 1051 (www.50-a.org/officer/E7EX) are friends with at least one of the zionists, Ronen Levy, who were harassing, antagonizing anti-genocide New Yorkers. Are Captain Guzman and Detective Lauren Au zionists? Captain Guzman and Detective Lauren Au work at the 61st Precinct. Search for NYPD officers on www.50-a.org.

As the anti-genocide New Yorkers were about to begin their march, they stepped out of the pen and onto the sidewalk. NYPD officers forced protesters back into the pen.

At the same time, zionists were on the sidewalk harassing pro-peace protesters. NYPD officers allowed zionists to remain on the sidewalk and antagonize anti-zionist New Yorkers.

As anti-war protesters marched through various streets in the neighborhood, zionists continued to harass peaceful demonstrators protesting against genocide profiteer Mini-Circuits.

On Tuesday, September 8, 2026, Anas shared a video on Instagram showing Ronen Levy attacking him. He also shared another video that shows NYPD cops Sergeant Joel A. Mottola, Deputy Chief at Patrol Borough Manhattan South Timothy J. Beaudette, and other NYPD officers. Anas asked NYPD officers to arrest Ronen Levy. On the second video, someone asked if NYPD cops arrested Ronen Levy. Anas responded, “no.” I could not find a video of the arrest. Ronen Levy was arrested by NYPD officers for other reason in November 2019.

On Wednesday, September 9, 2026. journalist Talia Jane shared the first video of Anas and said, “During an “anti-DSA” rally yesterday, far-right conspiracy theorist Ronen Levy (who wears a @MadeinNY press card issued by the Adams admin under his shirt) was documented physically harassing a counterprotestor.”

Talia added, “Per sources, Levy was arrested & issued a summons for the incident.”

On July 31, 2024, zionist Karen Lichtbraun attacked with pepper spray pro-Palestine protestors, a journalist (me) and children that were with their mother in Times Square. NYPD did not arrest her.

On August 1, 2024, Eye on Palestine shared a video on Instagram of Karen Lichtbraun pepper spraying people in Times Square and said, “At the recent Within Our Lifetime demonstration that was held in response to an IOF event in Times Square on Wednesday evening a woman who identified as ‘unapologetically Zionist’ maced around twenty pro Palestine protesters including children and a journalist. The NYPD initially detained the woman, who was identified as Karen Lichtbraun before letting her go and arresting one of the victims instead. WOL has been banned from Instagram, you can follow them @wolpalestine on twitter and t.me/wolpalestine on telegram.”

According to some reports and social media documentation associated zionist Karen Lichtbraun with groups including Yad Yamin and the Jewish Defense League, an extremist group that the United States has designated as a terrorist organization.

Ross Glick is another zionist who goes to peaceful pro-Palestine protests to harass anti-genocide New Yorkers. Ross Glick was the executive director of Betar US for a period, until 2019 when he was arrested on revenge-porn charges. The pro-Israel zionist group Betar had to end New York operations after an investigation found the organization engaged in “bias-motivated assaults, threats, and harassment targeting Muslim, Arab, Palestinian, and Jewish New Yorkers”.

On Wednesday, January 14, 2026, Anna Betts reported on www.theguardian.com, “According to a news release from the James’s office on Tuesday, an investigation by the office of the attorney general (OAG) determined that Betar – which has been labelled an “extremist group” by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a Jewish advocacy group – “repeatedly targeted individuals based on religion and national origin”. It also uncovered evidence of what the office described as “Betar’s widespread persecution of Muslim, Arab, Palestinian, and Jewish New Yorkers, driven by broad hostility and animus toward several protected groups, in violation of New York civil rights laws”.”

The NYPD Commissioner is zionist Jessica Tisch. She was appointed by former NYC mayor, zionist, corrupt Eric Adams and reappointed by New York City mayor, Zohran Kwame Mamdani.

From October 2023 to October 2025, NYPD officers arrested THOUSANDS of peaceful pro-Palestine, anti-genocide students and other New Yorkers. NYPD cops also arrested journalists covering peaceful pro-Palestine protests.

It is possible that NYPD Jose L. Guzman and NYPD Lauren Au were some of the NYPD agents arresting peaceful anti-war protestors.

Anti-genocide activists will have more protests against Mini-Circuits in the future.

“Mini-Circuits designs and manufacturers parts found on the Motherboard of the Hellfire missile. These components are used for imperial violence from Palestine to Venezuela. Mini-Circuits out of Brooklyn NOW,” said Pal-Awda NY on February 17, 2026.

Pro-Palestine, anti-genocide, anti-war activist organizations, such as Pal-Awda NY/NJ, label the company Mini-Circuits a “genocide profiteer” because Mini-Circuits manufactured electronic parts and radar tech used in military hardware like Hellfire missiles.

Activists state that parts built by Mini-Circuits are integrated into precision-guided weapons utilized in the Israel genocide against Indigenous Palestinians in Gaza, Palestine and Israel’s terrorist attacks in other countries.

The U.S. military has used AGM-114 Hellfire missiles across multiple decades to murder people in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Libya, Pakistan, South America, Iran, etc.

A “genocide profiteer” is a political or economic term used to describe a corporation, institution, or individual that financial gains or material benefits from a military conflict, occupation, or state action accused of being a genocide.

The expression is a specialized variant of “war profiteer” and is frequently used by human rights activists, protesters, and political groups.

The label “genocide profiteer” or “war profiteer” is typically applied to defense contractors, logistics and shipping lines handling arms, technology and cloud-computing providers, or financial institutions that invest in military supply chains.

The Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) has a campaign against one of the world’s largest genocide profiteers: Maersk.

The Palestinian Youth Movement launched the #MaskOffMaersk campaign at the 2024 People’s Conference for Palestine, focused on a concrete logistics target in order to pursue an arms embargo on Israel. More information on www.maskoffmaersk.com.

On October 24, 2024, Rimsha Syed wrote the article “Pro-Palestine Activists Target Invisible Genocide Profiteer in Arms Supply Chain” on truthout.org.

Rimsha Syed wrote, “Since October 7, 2023, Maersk has shipped over $300 million in weapons components to U.S. arms manufacturers, organizers have found. As a key culprit in the weapons trade, Maersk plays a direct role in maintaining the flow of weapons and weapon components used on the besieged population in Gaza.”

Activist groups use the term in boycott, divestment, and sanction (BDS) campaigns to pressure companies or public figures to cut operational ties with military forces or governments involved in genocide.

Labeling an entity a “genocide profiteer” asserts a direct moral and economic complicity between commercial revenue and large-scale civilian casualties.

Mini-Circuits is located at 13 Neptune Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11235, situated in the Sheepshead Bay area near the Belt Parkway. This site serves as the primary corporate headquarters and operations facility for the global electronics manufacturer.

Houses executive management, engineering, production, quality assurance, sales, marketing, and finance. It was established at this Neptune Avenue location in 1982 as the company expanded within Brooklyn.
