Netanyahu Urges Congress For More Aid To Win Gaza War 'Faster'

Protesters enraged by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to Congress burned U.S. flags and raised Palestinian flags outside Union Station in Washington, D.C.
Netanyahu's visit to Washington on Wednesday has provoked a series of dramatic demonstrations from protesters opposed to Israel's ongoing military assault in Gaza. Earlier in the day, maggots were dumped on a banquet table at Netanyahu's hotel, while fountains around the capital city were dyed blood red.
The protests escalated in the afternoon, with a group outside Washington's train station removing U.S. flags and replacing them with flags of Palestine. Videos shared on social media show the protesters burning an American flag and an effigy of Netanyahu, with some dancing in celebration as music plays.
"Anti-Israel protestors burned an effigy with an American flag wrapped around it outside of Union Station," Gary M. Collins, a journalist for the conservative Sinclair Broadcast Group, wrote while sharing a video of the moment to X, formerly Twitter.

Lock these idiots up and treat them as the criminals they are for vandalizing property and causing any sort of violence. This idiots dont understand they are just giving ammo to netanyahu and the right wing to further exterminate innocent people in gaza, this literally changes no persons views and antagonizes people that could be persuadable. Idiots!

I am sympathetic to their cause and despise the right wing fascist netayanhu and his evil policies but this is a game of numbers and public persuasion so you can change policy, burning the american flag in the nations capital alienates people, it turns off individuals who are even open to persuasion, its best to be as civil and non violent as possible to help your protest
