A woman waving a Palestinian flag at the California border has found out in a hurry not all Americans are totally in sync with her cause, as she left in a panic because her “survival instincts were screaming.”
A video of the incident was shared Tuesday by Brigitte Gabriel, a New York Times best-selling author and founder of Act For America, a grassroots movement dedicated to preserving America’s culture, sovereignty and security.
The clip shows the Islamic activist, who goes by the name “alajaarah” on Instagram, standing in front of the “California Welcomes You” sign on Sunday as she proudly waves the Palestinian banner.
She is then subjected to cars honking, middle fingers being flipped, and foul-mouthed shouts of, “USA, c***!” and “F*** you, b*tch!” as some of the cars circled back to potentially confront her.
“And this moment, my survival instincts were screaming,” the woman explains as she skedaddles in her car.
WATCH: (Warning of some faint obscenities):
🚨VICTIM ALERT! This pro-Hamas radical jets across all 50 states waving the Palestinian flag, then plays victim when patriotic Americans reject her antics.
If Gaza is your cause, go live there. This is America-we will never surrender our nation to your invasion.

“Not one car, three cars filled with people screaming and cursing at me. Now I’m shaking,” she says after turning on the camera inside her vehicle.
“California, I thought this state was going to be a better state. It’s funny, out of all the states, the state that I’m moving to is the state that this happens in.”
The woman then begins sobbing, as she fights through tears to say: “The sad thing is, they don’t understand, or they do, and they’re just evil.”
“I don’t understand how people can be so evil. I mean either they’re lacking in the knowledge of what’s happening, or they know of the knowledge and they just don’t care.”
“I felt like I was in junior-high school being bullied all over again, like it took me all the way back. They’re either adults that have not grown mentally. I just don’t understand how people could be so hateful. Open a book, read an article, watch something productive.”
Gabriel reacted to the video saying: “VICTIM ALERT! This pro-Hamas radical jets across all 50 states waving the Palestinian flag, then plays victim when patriotic Americans reject her antics.”
“If Gaza is your cause, go live there. This is America-we will never surrender our nation to your invasion.”
Investigative journalist Angela Van Der Pluym says she has been reporting on the woman for months, and shared similar flag-waving by alajaarah in Alabama and Michigan.
“Hey Alabama, you good with this?” wondered Van Der Pluym. “Is this the flag you want waved when you enter your state?”
Our Palestinian flag-waving friend has arrived in Michigan.
She has been trying to travel to all 50 states to wave the Palestinian flag.
This is state number 25.

Other online reaction to the California clip includes:
“There is something so insane about her, how much did she spend on flying, who paid for it? Mom and Dad, she assumed that Cali being a blue state she would be welcome there with her ridiculous flag waving. Wave the American flag you deluded Hamas inducted fool.”
“We don’t want your crap!! America is the flag to wave … not that piece of 💩.”
“If we’re not going to surrender our nation, we are going to have to do a lot more than honk.”
“It’s magical. Take your We Hate Women costume off, get a productive job, find some manners, and people won’t hate you.”
