‘Ceasefire now!’ 40 people arrested for demonstration at Hart Senate Office Building

WUSA9:
WASHINGTON — More than 40 people staged a protest inside the Hart Senate Office Building Monday calling for a free Palestine. U.S. Capitol Police said of the dozens arrested, one person was arrested for resisting arrest. 

According to authorities, the group of demonstrators arrived just after 10 a.m. Video from inside the building shows protesters standing with linked arms and singing songs, while officers warn them that they will be arrested if they do not leave. 

The protesters held signs and wore shirts that expressed their support for the Palestinian people. Several signs read “Stop arming Israel.” A large banner carried the message: “‘Aid’ to Israel = bombing Palestinians”

Protesters were also seen laying on the ground as part of a “die in” protest. Several of those protesters were taken into custody while others chanted, “Ceasefire now.” more

  1. “Die in?” Lets give the some dying. Too stupid to know where to lodge their complaint, too stupid to know why they are protesting, too stupid to know what they are protesting. We should put them (all terrorist sympathizers) out of their misery.

  2. None of the “news” reports I’ve seen showed the tiniest scintilla of curiosity about where these protestors came from, what organization they might be members of, or who/what provided money for transport, signage, bail, etc. I wonder why that is?

  4. None of those phony scam-saturated std-infected liberals give 2 eggs outta the same hen about Palestine or Israel. Matter of fact, ‘their’ Hamas are mega-racists against blacks, hispanics, and all other ethnic groups….similar to Joe Sly-den and his ‘Breakfast Tacos’ dowdy babysitter-turned-wife.
