Pro-Palestinian protesters invade the Capitol: More than 300 demonstrators are arrested after demanding Israeli ceasefire by staging a sit-down in a rotunda in the Congress complex

Pro-Palestinian protestors are taking over the U.S. Capitol as hundreds demand a ceasefire between Hamas terrorists in Gaza and Israel.

The demonstration comes a day after a bombing of a hospital in Gaza killed hundreds of Palestinians.

The protestors, dressed in black shirts that read 'JEWS SAY CEASEFIRE NOW' and 'NOT IN OUR NAME' took over the large rotunda in the Cannon House Office Building.

The demonstrators held posters with messages like 'LET GAZA LIVE' and 'MOURN THE DEAD, AND FIGHT LIKE HELL FOR THE LIVING.'

Capitol Police made 300 arrests as the group got louder and more disruptive with chants and singing.

They cut off public access to the Capitol complex as swarms of angry Palestinian advocates flooded the Cannon building.

Capitol Police said of the mass arrests: 'We warned the protestors to stop demonstrating and when they did not comply we began arresting them.'

Rep. Randy Weber posted on X a video of a sign he had hanging outside his office that said 'I stand with Israel' that had been torn down by protesters.

Some Democrats have claimed that Israel committed a war crime by intentionally targeting a hospital - a claim the Israeli Defense Force has avidly denied.

The Defense Department said they believed it was 'highly improbable' Israeli forces were behind the explosion that killed hundreds of people at the Gaza hospital - and President Biden suggested the same during a trip to Israel.

Were they mostly peaceful? Yes. Did they have FBI/CIA agent provacatuers embedded? No. So...they’re off the hook.

“”JEWS SAY CEASEFIRE NOW””

I still don’t know if the people protesting are Jewish protesting Israel while other reports are saying they are Palestinian protests!

All of them should be held in solitary confinement for at least two and a half years before charges are brought against them.

This should be interesting to see unfold.

Schumer and most Democrats have taken a pro-Isreali stance.

These Hamas sympathizers pretending to be Jewish should get locked up.

And if any of them hold dual citizenship, they should be kicked out of America and back to their other country.

Remember who these islamists and their helpers among “democratic” left side with:

“They raped the girls, then they killed them. Then they switched - did the opposite, first rape and then murder them. They always laughed when they did it, I can’t forget how they laughed.”

We are very fortunate to not have had a suicide bomber in with the crowd. How dangerous and stupid.

Morgana nailed it!
If these insurrectionists are NOT accorded the same, Draconian detentinon circumstances at the J6 folks, then we have PROOF of the two-tiered justice system we all suspect is in place...

The Democrats in Congress are so stupid, they don’t know who their enemies are. They have more to fear from these Hamas supporters than they do from Republicans. I’m no lover of Democrats, but I don’t want to harm or kill them.
