An anarchist US activist group plays soccer with a mock severed head of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu outside the United Nations headquarters in New York City.
The INDECLINE group posts a video of the game, saying they are holding the event ahead of this month’s UN General Assembly.
“The ball is the head of Benjamin Netanyahu,” says the video, which is titled “Freedom Kick.”
The footage shows the UN headquarters, the Israeli flag and a group of activists, many of whom are masked, posing in front of a Netanyahu head.
The rest of the video shows the activists kicking Netanyahu’s head around a field during the game, set to a punk rock soundtrack.
The head has been donated to “The Palestinian Genocide Museum,” the video says.
It’s unclear what the head is made of.
The group posts photos of the game alongside a caption accusing Israel of a Holocaust in Gaza.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
