Even as Israel has agreed to a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza to facilitate a ransom deal with Hamas for the release of some of the hostages taken by Hamas in the October 7 attack on Israel, pro-Hamas protesters in New York City staged a blockade of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade on Thursday. Some of the protesters reportedly glued their hands to the street. The blockade followed a float featuring a Palestinian flag being displayed by the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe of Massachusetts and protesters in the reviewing stands holding up banners.

Communist groups were behind several of the protest groups including ANSWER and the Party for Socialism and Liberation. Banners displayed readers, “Liberation of Palestine and the Planet” and “Genocide Then Genocide Now.”
