A memorial service was held outside the Israeli consulate in New York City on Sunday afternoon for the 6 hostages who were kidnapped and murdered by Hamas terrorists, including American Hersh Goldberg-Polin. During the gathering, attendees protested against a ceasefire and urged the IDF to win.
Speakers included WABC’s Sid Rosenberg and former NY Assemblyman Dov Hikind.
Former NY Assemblyman, Americans Against Antisemitism founder Dov Hikind said, “We call on the Biden-Harris Administration to stop pressuring Israel. Just as America would respond anywhere else in the world to the murder of Americans, there must be full and complete destruction of Hamas.
He added: "America must not permit a double standard for the murderer of Jewish Americans. Had America not insisted on "humanitarian aid" that strengthened Hamas and delayed the Rafah offensive, much bloodshed would have been prevented and the hostages freed long ago.
Hersh Goldberg-Polin was an American who got murdered by a terrorist organization and America must stand strongly with Israel today.”
