An unauthorized art display placed outside the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City features a bloody background and a flashing sign accusing Israeli security forces of deliberately killing Palestinian children. The display references a recent UN report that accuses Israel of genocide, which critics—including the source—call a modern blood libel.
An unauthorized art display appeared Tuesday outside the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City, featuring a bloody backdrop and a flashing sign reading: 'The Israeli security forces have deliberately targeted and killed Palestinian children.' The display, attributed to an unknown artist, explicitly references a recent UN Commission of Inquiry report that accuses Israel of 'genocide' in Gaza, including the deliberate targeting of children. The report, which Israel has rejected as biased and lacking evidence, has been criticized by Jewish groups as a modern blood libel. The Zioneer has previously documented a pattern of such unsubstantiated accusations, including a UN report charging Israel with deliberately targeting children—a claim Israel firmly denies—and a viral online campaign falsely alleging Israel paints munitions to resemble soccer balls to lure Lebanese children. The display is not affiliated with the museum.
