    A braying mob of around 100 anti-Israel protesters spent Independence Day burning American flags and chanting “Burn it down!” in Washington Square Park, part of a coordinated “Flood Manhattan for July 4th” demonstration.

    At least one person was arrested, cops said, but they did not disclose the charges the alleged perpetrator was facing.

    Video shows a New Yorker in a Yankees hat trying to reason with the group, but he’s quickly shouted down by a man in glasses who gleefully cheers “F–k Israel! F–k America! Woohoo!” as his fellow radicals giggle in approval.

    The camera then pans down to a tattered Old Glory, smoldering next to a poster depicting Trump and Biden wearing crowns beneath “DEATH TO ALL KINGS” in big block letters.

    The poster was evidently a reference to the Supreme Court’s ruling earlier this week granting US presidents “ absolute immunity ” from prosecution from “official acts” during their time in office.

    Keffiyeh-wearing photographers brought their lenses in close to capture the flag desecration as chants of “Free free free Palestine” and “Burn it down” echoed throughout the park.

    The crowd appeared to burn several different flags throughout the protest.

    A woman at one point callously walks across the stars and stripes with her camera lens fixed downward at her feet.

    The footage seems to take pains to avoid showing anyone’s faces, but the crowd skewed young.
