A nightclub in Brooklyn, New York hosted a pro-Hamas “Intifada FundRaver” over the weekend.
QUICK FACTS:
- “The End” nightclub, located in New York City, hosted a pro-Hamas event over the weekend reportedly raising funds for “Palestine children’s relief and medical aid.”
- The event, called “Intifada FundRaver,” was promoted with a video featuring videos of Hamas attacking Israel and the nearly 1,300 victims murdered at an outdoor rave.
- “A NYC club known as The End is holding an ‘Intifada Fundraver,’ glorifying the deadliest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. In promoting the event, TheEnd.NYC Instagram account features a video of Hamas terrorists bulldozing the Gaza Strip border wall before carrying out the bloodiest terrorist attack in the history of Israel,” Democratic New York Rep. Ritchie Torres said. “There is a deep root of antisemitism in American culture that cannot be ignored and must be confronted at every turn. No more turning a blind eye.”
- The nightclub allegedly later removed the promotional video from their Instagram page.
MANHATTAN BOROUGH PRESIDENT MARK LEVINE ON AN NYC NIGHTCLUB HOSTING A PRO-HAMAS EVENT:
“A nightclub in Brooklyn called The End is hosting an ‘Intifada Fundraiser’ tonight which they are promoting on Instagram with a music video of Hamas bulldozing into Israel to commit mass murder. This is straight up glorification of a massacre. Reprehensible,” Levine said.
BACKGROUND:
- Republican Brooklyn Councilwoman Inna Vernikov was arrested last week after she allegedly brought a firearm to a pro-Hamas rally.
- Vernikov, 39, was reportedly seen “with the butt-end of a firearm protruding from the front portion of her pants.”
- The Jewish councilwoman, who has spoken out against pro-Palestinian supporters, was in attendance on the campus of CUNY’s Brooklyn College.
- The councilwoman shared a video of herself outside the protest on X Thursday afternoon.
- “If you’re standing w/ the protestors, yelling ‘GLOBALIZE THE INTIFADA’ & ‘FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA, PALESTINE WILL BE FREE’ while innocent women and babies are being raped, massacred and beheaded, you’re a HAMAS supporter & apologist who would like to bring the terror here to rid the world of the Jewish people,” she wrote.
