Anti-Israel protesters have been rioting on college campuses and in American cities for months, but this weekend, they chose a sensitive and symbolic location, besieging the World Trade Center in New York City.
The crowd carried Palestinian flags and were shouting slogans. Arrests were made as the NYPD tried to stop the madness.
Cities need to recognize that this congestion is potentially dangerous and should be taken seriously.

Pro-Palestine protesters flood NYC on International Women's Day, storm Oculus as disturbing video shows protester unconscious in the street surrounded by police
Thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters took to the streets of New York in a riotous demonstration on International Women's Day, including storming the Oculus near the World Trade Center.
Footage shows protesters holding Palestinian flags, shouting and cheering after successfully entering the shopping center on Friday.
Once inside, they formed a drumming circle and waved banners that read: '30,878 dead and those eating ice cream', a reference to the president casually eating ice cream when asked about the situation between Israel and Gaza recently. In reference to spitting on a cone.
Other disturbing footage showed a protester battling the cold on the streets. The worker is seen lying face down on the ground surrounded by the police. It is unclear how he was eliminated.
In the background a woman is heard shouting, 'Get an ambulance for him, cops, he's dead' while the police try to get a reaction from his limp body…
The 'Global Strike for Gaza' began in Union Square before moving into the city, with later video showing protesters attacking the Oculus shopping mall.

How lengthy will this conduct be tolerated? That is turning into more and more frequent and letting it occur is a big mistake.
