"Choose Israel or Hamas," and emphasized: "There is no middle ground in this conflict. You’re either for the Jewish people or you’re not."
The Washington D.C. “March for Israel”: A bipartisan rally for genocide
10 hours ago
"On Tuesday, a degraded spectacle took place on the National Mall in Washington D.C. The “March for Israel” will be recorded in history as a rally for ethnic cleansing and genocide."
"Leaders of both the Democratic and Republican parties declared their support for Israel’s war against the people of Gaza, which has already killed at least 11,000 people, including more than 4,000 children. Just hours later, in a move apparently coordinated with the rally, Israeli tanks and bulldozers attacked Al-Shifa Hospital, the latest blatant war crime."
Under these conditions, the most popular chant at the rally, “No Ceasefire! No Ceasefire!”, would have been more accurately rendered as “Genocide, genocide, more genocide!”
"Substantial funding was devoted to flying participants from throughout the country and financing their attendance. At its height, however, the rally barely attracted 10,000 people, a tiny fraction of those who participated in the mass rally of 300,000 in Washington D.C. 10 days ago."
"Following his proclamation that “
the United States has always stood with Israel, and we will do everything to see that that never, ever changes,” Schumer led the crowd in chants of “USA! USA!”
"Among his many antisemitic statements is Hagee’s assertion, in his book
Jerusalem Countdown: A Warning to The World, that Hitler was a “half-breed Jew,” who was
sent by God as a “hunter” to drive European Jews to “the only home God ever intended for the Jews to have—Israel.”
"Framing Israel’s ethnic cleansing campaign as a divine mission,
Hagee proclaimed at the rally that “Israel is not merely a state, Israel is the apple of God’s eye.” Putting no restrictions on Israeli war crimes, Hagee declared, “You, the leaders of Israel, should decide how this war is conducted, you, and no one else!”
And here's zerohedge's take of the spectacle: (these two articles have a discrepancy in the size of the crowd)
"Choose Israel or Hamas," and emphasized: "There is no middle ground in this conflict. You’re either for the Jewish people or you’re not."
"US House Speaker Mike Johnson spoke in person, receiving loud cheers when he
denounced any talk of ceasefire. He actually called
the very idea of ceasefire at this point "outrageous." He emphasized, "Israel will cease their counter-offensive when Hamas ceases to be a threat to the Jewish state." The crowd then broke out into chants of
"no ceasefire!"
"Some critics said the march had the atmosphere of a "pro-war rally"...
