The Instagram post that organizers used to promote the event said: "Shut it Down! On New Year’s Eve! We want to see a free 🇵🇸 [Palestine] now, and going forward into 2024!..."

“Free Palestine” is a chant that has been described as a "battle cry for the death of Jews.” In May 2025, two Israeli diplomats in Washington, D.C., were murdered by a gunman shouting “Free Palestine!” In June 2025, one pro-Israel activist was killed and over 25 were injured in Boulder, Colorado, when a man yelling “Free Palestine” firebombed them.

NYC: All Out For Palestine

The Instagram post promoting the event said: "On this New Year’s Day we declare that there is nothing new in the US while the same genocide takes place in Palestine."

The same post concluded: "We will not be distracted by corporate holidays that tell us there is a break between the past and the future. We will only have a new beginning the day we achieve our liberation from Zionism and imperialism. / Until liberation and return🇵🇸"

Zionism is the belief that Jews have the right to self-determination in their own national home, and the right to develop their national culture. Zionism is a core part of the identity of most Jews.

The “right of return” is a Palestinian demand discredited as a means to eliminate Israel. International law mandates no absolute right of return and UN Resolution 194, which defined principles for “refugees wishing to return to their homes,” was unanimously rejected by Arab nations following the 1948 Arab-Israeli War.
