Unfortunately, if there are incidents, the event organizers would also be named.

Just finished watching all the TV news reports on all the local network affiliates in the Washington, D.C. metro area. There were NO reported arrests nor incidents of violence reported anywhere in the city. NONE at all. This is despite the tens of thousands of pro-Palestinian protestors present all day today from that.

The only "tense moments" reported and broadcast were verbal arguments between our patriots and some of the protestors from the other groups that occurred around 1:00 pm this afternoon. Those were quickly broken up by the Park Police, but, the press nonetheless got the closest thing to a "violent confrontation" that they could report all day. :->

If there was a violent confrontation, the antihippies would have been front and center on all the evening newscasts, obliterating the media goals of the pro palestinians.

Sometimes, leaderless cell operations make sense.

Actually, I heard on the radio at some point that things were looking nasty between the New Black Panthers (shouting "Death to Israel!") and some peaceniks (who shouted back "Stop the Hate!"). There were lots of words exchanged and they almost went at each other.

Now THAT'S funny...
