Pro-Palestinian demonstrators set an American flag on fire during a protest
Friday in New York City.

During rallies outside the pro-Israel organization, American Israel Public
Affairs Committee (AIRPAC), the demonstrators gathered around the inflamed Stars
and Stripes.

"Genocide Joe! Has got to go!" protesters were heard chanting in the video.

"What the f---," one woman is heard shouting as she is being arrested. 

"This is what your tax dollars are funding!" the woman continued yelling as
police officers arrest her. "They're funding genocide in Gaza."

During her arrest, a female pro-Palestinian demonstrators said that taxpayer
money is funding the "genocide" in Gaza. (@NewYorkCityPeople)

As the woman was restrained by officers, she continued her rant, likening the
NYPD and the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to the KKK.
