There was a pro-Hamas Jew-hating protest-cum-riot near the White House yesterday There was a mob attack on a single pro-Israeli counter protester near the White House. The counter protester is an Iraq vet, a Puerto Rican, non-Jewish. But he was having a civil conversation with one Muslim and then, incapable of controlling their savage instincts, antisemitic American haters started attacking him.

Islamic thugs and their leftist jackboots.

Islamic/leftist axis: Cosponsors of the rally are below.

Co-sponsors: - ANSWER Coalition - American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) - Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) - American Muslim Alliance (AMA) - Al-Awda: Palestine Right to Return Coalition - Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) - Muslim Legal Fund of America - MAS Immigrant Justice Center - Code Pink Pro-Palestinian Tries to Light Counter-Protestor’s Israeli Flag on Fire at Massive DC March

Pro-Palestinian Tries to Light Counter-Protestor’s Israeli Flag on Fire at Massive DC March

Breitbart had this:

On Saturday, a massive pro-Palestine and anti-Israel protest took place in Washington D.C. in front of the White House. The crowd, which numbered around 10,000 according to a DC police officer, shouted chants of “free, free Palestine,” “end the genocide,” and had a number of speakers appear, including left-wing professor Cornell West.

A group of pro-Israel protestors showed up — and were encircled by police with barricades. The crowd shouted at the group and blew blowhorns in their direction. The pro-Israeli group had to be escorted out of the crowd in police vans.

One pro-Israel protestor showed up on the other side of the crowd, alone, with an Israel flag in one hand and an an American flag in the other.

The pro-Palestine protestors grew belligerent — shouting slogans at him, giving him the middle finger. One tried to light his Israeli flag on fire.

But Manny Vega, an undeterred retired U.S. Marine and Iraq War veteran, spoke to Breitbart News about the incident.

“What brought me out here is this sort of anti-Israel atmosphere that this administration is holding over the United States,” Vega told Breitbart News. “I want to show the Israeli people there are American people in our nation that support the state of Israel… And that is why am standing here with an American flag on my right hand, and Israeli flag on my left hand, in a show of solidarity with the Israeli people.”

Vega argued with one pro-Palestine protestor, who said that the State of Israel had no right to exist and would not shake Vega’s hand.

“Israelis love life; they can coexist with other nations and they have since 1948. Israel has extended a hand to shake, but they shake it and go back to fight,” Vega reportedly told the protestor.

When asked if he was concerned about the protestors turning violent, Vega said:

“Hey, I’m not going to be pushed out of here… If I was in Palestine, my throat my throat would be slit, but I’m in front of the White House. This is America, and I have every right to be here with the American flag, and the Israeli flag as a counter protest to the ‘Free Gaza, Anti-Occupation’ protest here. And pro-Hamas.”

Breitbart News asked Vega if he had any concerns about immersing himself into a hostile crowd.

“I have no fear, Vega said. “I’m not going to get stabbed, or lit on fire, but they tried to light my flag on fire.”

The waves of pro-Palestine demonstrators continued to protest throughout the city, shutting down 15th street.

Marine Corps. Vet, Manny Vega.

Vicious Jew hater “Professor” Cornel West — pure nazi-eque rhetoric and invoking Martin Luther King is debased and sick. Martin Luther Kind was an ardent Zionist.

“When people criticize Zionists, they mean Jews. You’re talking anti-Semitism,” said Martin Luther King in response to a student who had attacked Zionism during a dinner event with n 1968.

Could the sponsoring organizations be sued for violating Marine Manny Vega’s civil rights? What kind of liability is there for the sponsors of demonstrations? The organizers support terrorism, the attendees support terrorism; seems to me there’s a high liklihood of violence breaking out among that crowd of terror supporters. Where am I going wrong?

We ARE playing for keeps Cowboys and Muslims. If you have not yet been confronted by muzzies over Israel or the U.S. role in the world, the war just hasn’t come to your neighborhood yet.

If you are what muzzies call an “infidel”, you are already a soldier in the war of good vs evil, of civilization vs muzzie barbarism. There’s no avoiding it. If you are not at war with Islam, then bad news: Islam is at war with you.

The initial order to counterattack following Pearl Harbor went, “Govern yourselves accordingly”.

Let us go and do likewise.

The last time I was in DC during an "Pro-Palestine" rally, I found this guy running around.

Scary.
I live in a location where nothing like this happens. I'm very thankful, but I'm prepared.

Free Gaza and the West Bank, by handing them over to the Israelis and eventually these places will be better places to live.

Sadly I fear that your fears will be realized but that the leaders of our nation will do everything that they can to hamstring our efforts.

Need a bunch more like him. Crusaders really set muzzies’ teeth on edge.

Brave soul I must say. Or maybe looking ready for a fight keeps the ROPers at bay.

I live in armed-to-the-teeth South Carolina. Local muzzies stay vewy vewy quiet. But the main mosque in Columbia is already linked to the Holy Land Foundation which funnels money to terrorists.

BTW how many churches do you know of that have their very own hearse? The Islamic center does, a muzzie meatwagon.

Spooky.
