A Druze-owned restaurant in New York, Gazala's, faced multiple acts of vandalism, including shattered glass and 'Free Palestine' graffiti, after the Israeli-Druze owner, Gazala Halabi, hung an Israeli flag on the wall. The incidents, reported by @MaltzJudy, began after October 7 and despite the vitriol, Halabi refuses to back down. In a related event, a Brooklyn restaurant was targeted with antisemitic graffiti following a pro-Israel event.
Palestine protestors are banging on the window of Zaytina, owned by chef Jose Andres, who CURRENTLY provides food aid in Gaza. This is just more proof that the Palestine protests are just anarchist idiots. https://t.co/si9V3gOTqY

This story is both heartening and nauseating. Too many "peace" activists are also vandals. More power to this restauranteur. She doesn't take any sh**. A Druze Restaurant in NY Hung an Israeli Flag on the Wall. That's When the Trouble Started https://t.co/bqjy2kyhul
