Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani told Newsmax on Friday he has never seen anything like the recent pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel protests that have occurred in the Big Apple.
Earlier this week, about 50 Jewish students were locked inside a library at Cooper Union in Manhattan as a pro-Palestine protest invaded the school, with protesters banging on doors while screaming."This is a total shock to me," Giuliani told "Rob Schmitt Tonight." "This city has always been considered a Jewish city, the same way that it's considered an Irish city. A lot of the traditions of Irish or Italian. Polish. Black. Harlem is the Black capital of America.
Giuliani pointed to one "disgraceful" period in New York's history, the Crown Heights race riots in August 1991, when a Chabad motorcade struck and killed a 7-year-old Guyanese immigrant, prompting three days of destruction and looting by Black residents against Jewish businesses in the neighborhood.
Crown Heights still has a large Orthodox Jewish population, and on Saturday, a pro-Palestinian group is scheduled to hold a rally in front of the Brooklyn Museum — just down the road from the Jewish Hasidic Lubavitcher headquarters, the New York Post reported.
