San Francisco:
Zombietime
Note in particular the moment at the 0.22 mark in the video when the Palestinian protesters reach across the barricades to attack the five pro-Israel protesters, and have to be restrained by police. At the end, one of the pro-Israel protesters, who were vastly outnumbered, declined to be interviewed by the cameraman, saying, “I’m a little spooked.” After watching this video, I think we’re all a little spooked! It’s as if the battle in Gaza has come to San Francisco.
The anti-Israel side had one slogan in English, and several more in Arabic.
The English-language slogan: “Palestine will be free, from the river to the sea” – which frankly states the intent to destroy the Jewish state and ethnically cleanse the land.
The Arabic slogans: “Itbach al Yahud” (slaughter the Jews), “Falastin balad’na w’al Yahud qalab’na” (Palestine is our land and the Jews are our dogs), “ba ruh, ba dam, nafdeek ya Falastin” (with our soul, with our blood, we will cleanse you oh Palestine), “al mawt al Yahud” (death to the Jews), “Khaybar Khaybar ya Yahud, jaish-Muhammad saya’ud” (Khaybar Khaybar oh Jews, the army of Muhammad will return).
[That last slogan refers to the battle of Khaybar where the prophet Muhammad opportunistically attacked and slaughtered the Jews who had been hospitable to another Arab tribe. The subsequent sacking of Khaybar by Muhammad’s forces re-energized the brigands who had flocked to his cause, and persuaded several Bedouin tribes to join Muhammad’s forces in hopes of fun and profit.]
Fort Lauderdale:
Via Maria, The Other McCain and Ace, 3:20 minutes into the video, “Get Back to the Oven! You Need a Big Oven!”
How is the media covering this, which is taking place right on our streets? PowerLine contrasts how pro-Israel demonstrators are called “right-wing activists” and everybody else is a “protestor”… or a Peruvian.
UPDATE
Times Square, NYC:
“Free Palestine From The Red Sea to the Sea”
UPDATE 2
Victor Davis Hanson:
Almost no other issue in recent memory has illustrated the moral bankruptcy of much of the international community. Hamas has no pretensions, like the PA, of being a governing authority; it used violence to rout the PA and then bragged that its charter pledging the destruction of Israel remained unchanged. Israel evacuated Gaza; Gazans in response looted their own infrastructure, alienated both the PA and Egypt,and then sent off more than 6,000 rockets against Israeli civilians, while eagerly becoming a terrorist puppet of theocratic Iran.
Nothing could be more clear: either the fact that a constitutional republic was trying to avoid civilian casualties while a terrorist organization was intent on killing Jewish civilians as it used its own citizens as shields to protect mostly young male terrorists; or the world’s craven reaction to all this.
Again all very creepy — the stuff of Tolkien’s Mordor. It is now clear that the so-called and much praised “international community,” the hallowed U.N., the revered EU, all pretty much are indifferent to the survival of a democratic Israel, or are actively supportive of its terrorist Hamas enemy. Only the U.S. (for now) stands by a constitutional state in its war against a murderous terrorist clique, with annhilation its aim and religous fascism its creed.
UPDATE 3:
Chicago:
I found this image pretty striking — the juxtaposition of a slice of Americana and savages calling for jihad in a foreign language on the streets of Chicago.

“Hey Johnny, what are you rebelling against?”
“Whatcha got?”
The Jerusalem Post has an article mentioning the sort of ethnic or rather political cleansing that one assumes the oppressed of the world never would commit. Seems Hamas is killing, torturing and arresting Fatah supporters in Gaza on the rumor that the latter has been helping the Israelis. But as usual the photo in the article suggests staged for the simple reason that the slide is all the way back indicating the automatic pistol is empty.
