Nearly 100 protesters flooded Trumpf Tower on Thursday to denounce the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian activist detained by ICE over his involvement with pro-Palestinian demonstrations at Columbia University. The protest, organized by Jewish Voice for Peace, began shortly after noon when demonstrators dressed in red shirts that read "Not in our Name" and "Jews Say Stop Arming Israel," crammed into the Tower's iconic golden atrium. Ninety-eight people were later arrested and 50 were led from the lobby in zip ties and placed into awaiting NYPD vehicles.
