Pamela Hall is a hero for all Israelis and supporters of Israel.
The New York Post has reported Pamela was at the Times Square subway station in New York City two days ago, when she came across Mona Eltahawy who was defacing a pro-Israel advertisement. The ad reads: “In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad.” A few minutes before the encounter, Eltahawy tweeted: “Meetings done; pink spray paint time.”
In the heated exchange which is captured in the New York Post video below, Hall says: “Do you have a right to do this? Eltahawy responded, “I do actually. I think this is freedom of expression, just as this [the ad] is freedom of expression.” Hall then stood between Eltahawy and the advertisement and Eltahawy says, “If you don’t want paint, you should get out of my way.” The video then shows Eltahawy spray painting onto Hall.
An NYPD officer and an MTA official arrived and arrested Elthaway. Reports indicate that she was charged with “criminal mischief, making graffiti and possession of a graffiti instrument” and was held overnight.
