Anti-Semitic Violence Erupts in DC During Pro-Palestinian Protest

Thousands of protesters gathered in Washington D.C. to call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war and an end to U.S. aid to Israel. However, the protest was marred by the presence of antisemitic graffiti, including messages such as "Death to Israel" and "Glory 2 the Martyrs," found on a nearby building. Demonstrators also vandalized the White House gate and executive mansion with red paint. While some argue that it is not antisemitic to disagree with Israel's policy, others condemn the violence and hate speech targeting Jews. Similar protests took place in London, Berlin, Bucharest, and Paris.
