Governor Shapiro denounces anti-Israel protest at Jewish-owned restaurant in Philly

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro condemned a pro-Palestinian protest outside a Jewish-owned restaurant in Philadelphia, calling it a "blatant act of antisemitism." The protest, part of the "Flood Philly for Gaza" rally, demanded a complete end to the siege on Gaza and an end to U.S. complicity with Israel. The restaurant, Goldie, owned by chef Michael Solomonov, has faced boycott calls due to its association with Israeli relief efforts. Protesters chanted anti-Israel slogans outside the restaurant, prompting condemnation from Gov. Shapiro, U.S. Sen. John Fetterman, and the White House. Several businesses were also vandalized during the protest. The Anti-Defamation League has criticized the use of the term "genocide" in relation to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
