A woman in Brooklyn was caught on camera tearing down posters of Israeli hostages kidnapped by Hamas terrorists. The unidentified woman ripped down the posters in Williamsburg, which has a large Orthodox Jewish population.
The video, posted to Reddit, shows the woman taking down the flyers one by one. Multiple flyers lined the green wood before being ripped down. A man filming the incident is heard yelling, “Hey, hey, what are you doing?” The woman, however, ignores him and continues to destroy the posters.
“They’re innocent people,” the man yells. “Yeah, they’re innocent,” the woman responds.
“They’re children, they’re babies, they’re elderly people,” the man continues. “Are you proud of yourself?” The woman, now annoyed, is seen shoving the papers in front of the man’s camera.
“These are innocent people, babies, mothers kidnapped!” the person who was filming her continues to yell. The woman now starts to tear the posters more aggressively, as a man accompanying her asks the person filming her to “get out of her face.”
