Protests greet Netanyahu ahead of address to divided Congress
The Hill ^ | 07/24/24 11:00 AM ET | by TheHill.com

Pro-Palestinian protesters will make their presence known around the Capitol on Wednesday ahead of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to a joint session of Congress, scheduled for 2 p.m. EDT.

A group of Jewish protesters was arrested in the Cannon office building Tuesday afternoon, and thousands of demonstrators are expected to turn out for a rally on Wednesday, demanding the arrest of Netanyahu, who has been charged with war crimes by the International Criminal Court.

A number of Democrats have said they will boycott the speech, which comes at the invitation of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), as anger boils over Netanyahu’s refusal to end the war, and inability to secure the release of hostages taken during Hamas’s Oct. 7 attack.

Johnson sent a letter to House members Tuesday warning that “any disruption of the proceedings of the rules and may subject the offenders to prosecution.”

Nazis-— all of them pallywood morons. Tools, AOC,Pelosi the grand mistress hagatha, the “blecks” who are full of jew hatred of every stripe for their “constituencies”.

Mossad will have it covered— the right part it, and not allow any interface or trust in Capitol Police or fibbies or ss. all opinion here of course. But it would make sense.

Xiden is trying to “spike” Bibi’s speech— xiden will not be speaking after the speech so this is obvious. What an a@2hole xiden and kamala and all of them are. Continuing to deny JDAM kits and 2K bombs so they can destroy the ammo dumps of Hezbollah and protect their country- our Ally.

They have the 1st Amendment right to do this.
A foreign leader whose military habe killed thousands of innocent civilians is speaking in front of our Congress demanding more money and military equipment, and possibly American soldiers to die for him — deserves our scorn and derision.

Israel has done quite well over the decades against its attackers. I seriously doubt they need American soldiers on the ground to fight its wars.

Let me bring you up to speed since you defend hamas terrorists. Israel was attacked on October 7’th by those who share your hatred for Jews!

Your antisemitism is despicable!

Lucky for you I’m not your judge however. But I do know Who is:

A group of Jewish protesters

Although technically true, it is disingenuous not to mention they were radical leftist self-hating Jews who support HAMAS

Did they gang-rape, torture, and dismember them as well?

'They have the 1st Amendment right to do this.'

They have the right to be the childish, ignorant-of-history and exhibitionist tyros that they are, too.

No serious person is giving them any attention.

How many of these protesters are illegal Muslim military age invaders? I just don’t believe the majority are American citizens it’s too hard to believe. Yes you do have your brainwashed snotty youth idiots but how many of them are from the Middle East who waltzed their way through our open borders? There’s just something so uneasy about these protests. And of course the DC swamp law-enforcement police will guard their identity. I saw in the news this morning a couple of protesters who look very much like middle Eastern men. Obtw, there’s another caravan making its way right now as I typed through Mexico and it is in the multiple multiple multiple thousands. And nobody is at the gates …nobody!😢

The real story here is... that just like Kamala Harris neglected to handle her ONLY job as VP, the US southern border invasion... her dereliction of duty now extends to snubbing the leader of our best ally now, and sending a message to Israel’s enemies that America now stands with them, not with Israel. Not unexpected of this cabal of anti-American scum... but yet another outrage inflicted by them upon patriotic Americans.

'...brainwashed snotty youth idiots'

I haven't seen much of the current DC protests, but during the University protests many, many of them looked like nerd-y adolescent misfits who finally found a way to 'be' somebody. I think any real Muslim invaders in any of these protests would have been among those careful to disguise themselves.
