Montclair NJ, a “stuck on stupid”, TikTok user known as Ambamelia has found herself at the center of viral controversy after filming herself tearing down Greek flags outside a New Jersey restaurant, mistakenly thinking they were Israeli flags. The incident occurred at Efi’s Gyro in Montclair, where the TikToker aimed to make a political statement but ended up becoming the subject of widespread ridicule.

In the now-viral video, which has garnered over 3.2 million views on TikTok and millions more on X (formerly Twitter), Ambamelia can be seen pulling down a string of Greek flags outside the restaurant. She titled the video, “The time I mistakenly thought the flag for Greek was for Israel and took the restaurant’s flag down OMG,” seemingly acknowledging the embarrassing mix-up.

The footage shows her aggressively tearing down the flags, shouting “Free Palestine, bitch!” as staff inside the restaurant look on in confusion. The flags, featuring Greece’s signature blue-and-white color scheme, had apparently been mistaken for Israel’s similar flag design, leading to the misguided protest.

The video has sparked backlash online, with many users pointing out the ignorance behind the act. Some commenters took to social media to criticize her lack of knowledge, while others simply shared the video with humorous commentary. Despite the TikToker’s attempt at making a political statement, the incident has turned into an example of how misinformation and poor judgment can lead to unintended consequences.

As the video continues to spread, it serves as a reminder of the importance of understanding symbols before making bold public gestures—especially when those actions take place outside a beloved local restaurant like Efi’s Gyro, which had nothing to do with the conflict at the center of her protest.
