A group of anti-Israel protesters calling for Congress to support a ceasefire and end military aid to Israel shut down the Senate cafeteria.
The group of protesters, Christians for a Free Palestine, was captured on video in the Dirksen Senate Office Building and could be heard chanting, “We are Christians for Free Palestine,” “We are here to pray for the food of Gaza,” and “Our Scriptures say, ‘Woe to you! To eat while others go hungry,’ and ‘Woe to you! For there is famine in Gaza.'
“Congress and their staff will not eat today,” the protesters can be heard saying in one video. “Until Gaza eats.”
The protest comes as the people of Gaza face mass famine as fighting between Hamas, a U.S.-designated Islamic terrorist organization, and Israel continues. Countries such as Britain, the United States, Egypt, Jordan, and the United Arab Emirates have conducted airdrops of food into Gaza.

This comment is out there - of course all kinds but this one caught my eye:
(such critiques often employ some of the worst supersessionist readings of the Bible)
I don’t know if it’s the case here but it would be my first guess based upon a few encounters with some people over the past 20 years or so.
Hey now it’s totally fine when pro Hamas lovers do an insurrection no media coverage no dems crying on tv
And all the while the peaceful protesters and tourists of January 6th are still unjustly in prison.
Interesting
Marxists and fellow-travellers.
Total BS from the group.
They’re *Christians*? Then I’m the queen of England.
It was a mostly pieceful demonstration.
Yes, these people do every evil thing they can put their hands to. Ask them about abortion. Or euthanasia.

Yes. But trespassing while leftist (like driving while black) is not prosecuted lately. Now J6 on the other hand....
Are we to presume these folks are now in custody?
“”Funding source?””
Not allowed to ask!!!!!!!
Aren’t the Jan 6 guys going to jail for stuff like this?
Weak protest. They’ll simply leave and go eat steak and whatever else we taxpayers are told we shouldn’t eat.
It’s (D)ifferent!
Christians? Like Demi Lavoto level Christian I am guessing.
Oh FF sake. Jesus did NOT confront the imperialists, even though the Jews thought he should have. He submitted to Herod’s judgement and prevented his followers from hurting soldiers of that imperial power.
““Our Scriptures say, ‘Woe to you! To eat while others go hungry,’ and ‘Woe to you! For there is famine in Gaza.’”
Zephaniah 2:1-15
“... perhaps you may be hidden on the day of the anger of the Lord. For Gaza shall be deserted, and Ashkelon shall become a desolation;
Ashdod’s people shall be driven out at noon, and Ekron shall be uprooted.
Woe to you inhabitants of the seacoast, you nation of the Cherethites!
The word of the Lord is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines; and I will destroy you until no inhabitant is left ...”
How did they get in there in the first place?
These savages murder a bunch of innocent civilians, and now were doing air drops of food for them and designing them a new port.
Meanwhile American homeless are everywhere coast to coast, in debt 35 trillion, with wide open lawless borders....We’re being ruled by evil mental cases with bad intent.
