Pro-Palestinian activists demanding an end to the war in Gaza and to American support for Israel plan to surround the White House during a weekend protest, prompting additional security measures, including anti-scale fencing.

Advocacy and activist groups like CODEPINK and the Council on American Islamic Relations said on Friday that demonstrations were planned on Saturday, marking eight months of Israel's war in Gaza that has killed tens of thousands while causing a humanitarian crisis with widespread hunger and destruction.

The United States, Israel's key ally, has seen months of pro-Palestinian protests ranging from marches in Washington and vigils near the White House to the blocking of bridges and roads near train stations and airports in multiple cities and encampments on many college campuses.

At least eight officials have quit the administration of President Joe Biden citing their opposition to his policy. Protesters have also disrupted some of Biden's reelection campaign events. Biden is currently in France for an official visit.

And here I thought that fencing and walls were xenophobic and inhumane.

Two thoughts ...

1. These “protesters” are essentially terrorists.

2. The Secret Service carry sub-machine guns.

I looked at the X video and saw what looked like kindergarten children on the floor with their crayons and butcher paper, doing their best to express themselves.

"A fence for me but not for thee!"
I was told that before the Wilson administration there wasn't even a fence of any kind around the White House.
