Film on Hamas attacks spurs heated protests outside Museum of Tolerance

Dueling demonstrations outside the Museum of Tolerance became heated on Wednesday night.

Inside, a private screening of video of atrocities from the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks on Israel was underway. Outside, horns were blaring, flags were waving, and shouting matches were erupting.

About 50 protesters gathered outside the museum prior to the start of the 47-minute film titled “Bearing Witness.” The film is a compilation of video from the attacks, gathered by the Israeli military. An estimated 1,400 people were killed and more than 200 taken hostage in the Oct. 7 attacks. In response, Israel has bombarded the Gaza Strip and initiated a ground invasion with the stated goal of eradicating Hamas. More than 10,000 Palestinians in Gaza have been killed, most of them women and minors, according to the Hamas-run Health Ministry.

Outside the Los Angeles museum at the corner of Roxbury Drive and Pico Boulevard, protesters waved U.S. and Israeli flags, and a woman used a bullhorn to chant, “Bring them home,” a reference to the Israeli hostages.

Los Angeles police officers were scattered among both groups, who were gathered on opposite sides of the intersection.

One pro-Israeli protester held a poster showing a 4-year-old child held hostage by Hamas. Another woman shouted into a bullhorn: “You can’t take away history. Jews are indigenous to Israel. Decolonize.”

On the other side, a man held up a sign reading “Honk for Ceasefire!” and a cacophony of honking from passing cars filled the air.

And I thought the Museum of tolerance was a South Park sketch.

The pro hamas toadies at this excuse for a newspaper ( more like toilet paper) repeat the lies on fake philistine casualties pumped out by their hamas buddies. Now adding the ‘mostly women and minors’ garbage.

I caught that too. MSM trying to equate casualties caused because Hamas would not let their own people evacuate, with the deliberate, savage, brutal murders of innocent Israelis. Sick.

It's so clear to see what there should be "zero tolerance" for and why. There is no "all things being equal" to assume, yet they persist. Not only would it require the willful suspension of disbelief, but also an uncivilized and mentally defective mindset in group-think mode to imagine actual alternatives to effective common sense, logic, truth and sanity for there to be so much undue nuance involved. You can't reason with those people at all, and it stands to reason that they are in a state of mind which rejects reality and substitutes it with evil calamitous woke-ist nonsense. I say go all "scorched earth" on them and let the world know the true meaning of "zero tolerance".

mental illness its not just a disease anymore its an epidemic. what they pleasantly brand as woke across the board is mental illness and the demand we accept it and the regime protects them

They walk the walk and the media says to walk that way. If we’re so adverse to it then there should be more “walking the walk” against it, but it would take the the courage and the will of ordinary people to do it. We have our best example of that in President Trump. Can’t MAGA without that, now can we? We can do the best with what we’ve got and it’s nothing to be sniffed at. Our “by any means necessary” looks a lot different than theirs, and rightly so.

And by “heated protest” they mean the Hamas-supporting scum attacked the Jews in the crowd
