Neo-Nazis Stage Antisemitic Protest Near Ground Zero During 9/11 Memorials
Neo-Nazis disrupted New York's 25th anniversary of 9/11 with antisemitic protests near Ground Zero, drawing widespread outrage during official memorial events.
Neo-Nazis disrupted New York City's solemn 25th-anniversary commemorations of the September 11 attacks by staging an antisemitic hate demonstration near Ground Zero.
The incident occurred on Sunday near the memorial sites and City Hall. Concurrently, a right-wing anti-Muslim march organized by Capitol riot pardoned activist Jake Lang drew numerous counter-protesters.
Amidst the chaos, a group of neo-Nazis wearing matching white shirts, khaki trousers, and red armbands bearing swastikas unfurled a banner reading "Jake Lang is a Jew." They chanted slogans against "Jewish power," performed Nazi salutes, and shouted "Free Palestine."
Footage circulating on social media sparked widespread outrage due to the timing and location, as families and first responders marked a quarter-century since the 2001 tragedy.
Police arrested at least one person for suspected assault as clashes erupted between the extremists and outraged bystanders near the official memorial events.
