Video: Anti-Israel, Anti-US Protest at United Nations

Living a block from the United Nations has its occasional drawbacks.  Whenever you see cops setting up metal barricades on Second Avenue, you know one of those drawbacks is getting ready to spoil your day.

Yesterday, the occasion was a noisy protest over the war crimes and genocide being perpetrated by Israel and the United States against Hamas' terrorist leaders the Palestinian people.  Fourteen floors up, there was no escaping the blaring din of misplaced outrage, so I trotted downstairs to capture some footage.

Can you count the keffiyehs?  How about the number of screaming children being used as propagandist props?

(Incidentally, this took place just steps away from Rachel Ray's studio.  I wonder if she donned her hate couture and made an appearance.)
