While Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was visiting President Donald Trump at the White House on Tuesday, a mob of anti-Israel protesters created a ruckus outside.
Many of the protesters carried Palestinian and Hamas flags, and declared they were there to demand that Netanyahu be arrested. Joining them were some Democrat leaders, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT).
From Fox43.com: The group protesting the meeting started with a demonstration at Pennsylvania Avenue NW and 17th Street NW near the Blair House, where Netanyahu was reportedly staying.
Around 5:30 p.m., the group increased in numbers as it marched down 17th Street NW and then onto H Street NW in front of the White House.
They carried signs condemning the U.S.’s relationship with Israel, calling Prime Minister Netanyahu a war criminal. Several of them told WUSA9 that they want to see President Trump continue to support a ceasefire in Gaza, as well as stop funding to Israel.
