Pro-Palestinian protestors are taking over the U.S. Capitol as hundreds demand a ceasefire between Hamas terrorists in Gaza and Israel.
The demonstration comes a day after a bombing of a hospital in Gaza killed at least 500 Palestinians.
The protestors, dressed in black shirts that read ‘JEWS SAY CEASEFIRE NOW’ took over the large rotunda in the Cannon House Office Building. Capitol Police started making arrests as the group got louder and more disruptive.
Some Democrats have falsely claimed that Israel committed a war crime by intentionally targeting a hospital.
President Joe Biden told reporters in Tel Aviv Wednesday that the Pentagon showed him evidence Israeli forces were not behind an explosion that killed hundreds of people at the Gaza hospital.
It also threw Biden’s trip to the Middle East into chaos. A scheduled meeting in Jordanian capital Amman with the king of Jordan and the presidents of Egypt and Palestine was canceled in the fallout of the deadly air strike.

Jonathan Conricus, a spokesman for the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), told CNN they have conclusive evidence that Israel was not behind the strike – but the evidence has not yet been published. He shared a video of what he said could be the missile strike.
Progressive Rep. Rashida Tlaib claimed that Israeli leaders have lied before about their actions after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu assured his government was not behind the bombing of the Palestinian hospital.
She spoke to the group in a tearful address before they headed into the Capitol.
‘A lot of people are not gonna forget this! It’s not a threat — it isn’t!’
