How ‘Gaza solidarity sukkahs’ became a flashpoint for debates about anti-Zionist Jewish observance

Shortly afterward, according to NYU’s student newspaper, the student group took down their sukkah voluntarily and ahead of schedule, citing “aggressive agitators” and claiming that campus police had treated them with hostility. Betar US, a right-wing pro-Israel group that traces its roots to pre-state Zionist activist Ze’ev Jablonsky, told the student paper they “happily and proudly” disrupted the sukkah. On Instagram, Betar referred to it and similar Gaza solidarity sukkahs as a “Jihaddi [sic] Sukkah” and referred to its participants as “thugs” and “terrorists.”
