Those who want to see Hamas survive to fight another moment took to the Capitol Hill’s Senate restaurant on Tuesday afternoon to halt the movement of a parliamentary time after Hamas rejected a second ceasefire proposal from Israel on Monday, apparently as a result of the Hamas barbarians ‘ inability to deliver 40 living hostages as part of the proposed exchanges, covered by Guy around.  ,

The demonstrators chanted,” Senate ca n’t eat until Gaza is eaten,” ignoring the reality that Hamas terrorists have a waiting list for aid and that they have quickly commandeered them once they have arrived in Gaza, where they have shot residents who have attempted to kill them.  ,
Among the inane demands from demonstrators: the Senate must endorse a ceasefire, restore UNRWA funding, and end military aid to Israel.
Large senate cafeteria is closed as a result of extensive protests by pro-Gaza protesters.

I’ve been told that police are detained and escorting some people out.

For their illegal stunt, a few dozen demonstrators were arrested by United States Capitol Police on charges of” crowding, obstructing, or incommoding” in a congressional building, in this case the Dirksen Senate Office Building:  ,
USCP: This afternoon, a total of 50 people were detained for illegally demonstrating inside the Dirksen Senate Office Building. Demonstrating inside any of the Congressional Buildings is against the law. The charge is D. C. Code§ 22–1307- Crowding, Obstructing, or Incommoding

Tuesday’s disruption was hardly the first time anti- Israel, Hamas- sympathizing demonstrators shut down congressional facilities.  ,
As Townhall previously reported, other groups of “CEASEFIRE NOW” idiots have obstructed or shut down the rotunda of the Cannon House Office Building, Hart Senate Office Building, and the rotunda of the U. S. Capitol itself.  ,
If it was n’t already immediately clear that these demonstrators are on the wrong side of this war, history, and human decency, consider the following from a March story in The Algemeiner:  ,
Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, praised Americans who are pressuring US President Joe Biden to stifle support for Israel because they are supporting the Lebanese terrorist organization’s cause on Wednesday.
” Today, what many people demonstrating in America are doing … Of course, we should salute them and be grateful to them”, Nasrallah said
If it was n’t bad enough that those chanting for a ceasefire ignore the reality that it is Hamas, not Israel, rejecting ceasefire proposals or had been proudly caught chanting” Death to America” in Michigan, here we have a bloodthirsty terrorist praising the supposedly “progressive” American left. Even so, Nasrallah and his terrorist barbarians would get as much glee as they did from killing the good people who raise money for Hezbollah’s cause in Congress and on American soil.  ,

Even worse, Biden is continuing to make the changes these individuals — again, praised by Hezbollah’s leader — demand, all in an attempt by the president to keep the states he won in 2020 in his column come November.  ,
