Israel Embassy Protest; Dhimmis in DC

| January 25, 2008

I found out from Gateway Pundit yesterday about a protest planned at the Israeli Embassy in DC this afternoon, so I packed up my cameras and took a half hour off from work and slipped across town to Embassy Row.

The first people I found was a small group of counter protesters, part of the same bunch that counter protest at Walter Reed every Friday night.

They told me that before I got there, the protesters were pretty quiet, but the counter-protesters broke out their bull horn and got them all worked up;

So they got their own bullhorn out;

An arms race ensued;

And they got ugly;

But they were probably pretty ugly before they got there. Here’s a YouTube Video of the crowd. And another video of our heroes.

 

The whole protest consisted of the moonbats shouting “Liars, liars, occupiers” while the counter-protesters tried to use actual ideas and substance to engage them. But they were more interested in shouting bumpersticker slogans.

It was a real family affair;

Then the usual self-hating Jews showed up;

So guess who gets the press coverage;

And what terrorist-supporting demonstration would be complete without the terrorist-hugging Code Pink contingent;

Apparently they don’t like publicity;

I should probably mention that this blogger, the mean, nasty, rich Republican came by public transportation while the Code Pink Hags arrived by taxi from about the same distance away from Embassy Row.

Well, now that the gang was all here, it was time to leave;

So we did (YouTube video link) . I don’t know where they went, but I went home (by public transportation) and got my blog fixed (by a wonderful Liberal, too – I know she’s reading).

But like I said, the Left was more interested in being louder than the few counter-protesters. They were so preoccupied with shouting down the counter protesters, their shouting drowned out their own speakers who tried to speechify (You Tube link), but couldn’t over the “Liars, liars, occupiers” shouts. But that’s symptomatic of the Left; it’s not that they have anything of substance to say, just so long as they’re talking.

Welcome Gateway Pundit, Atlas Shrugs, Solomonia and Weasel Zippers readers.

Speaking of Atlas Shrugs, Pamela Geller has photos and an excellent report from the protest and counter protest in NYC on Saturday. Some samples;

I was one of the handful of counter protesters. Thanks for putting this together.

In case you’re interested have another look at your first youtube video and pause it at 39 seconds. There you’ll see Brian Becker. Mr A.N.S.W.E.R. himself. The America-hating Commie bastard who is a major player in organizing all the anti-war marches around the country and the world for the past 5-6 years.
