Mona Eltahawy, Egyptian born MSNBC pundit, arrested for vandalizing pro-Israel poster VIDEO

MSNBC & CNN political pundit, Mona Eltahawy, was arrested for defacing private property claiming “free speech” by spray painting on a Pro-Israel ad in the NYC subway system.

“This is nonviolent protest; see this, America,” Eltahawy said in the video as police officers were arresting her. “I’m an Egyptian-American, and I refuse hate.”

The ads — reading, “In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad.” — went up in 10 stations across Manhattan.

The video below, via New York Post, shows her spraying pink paint over the advertisement.
