A far-left organization in New York City that has been at the forefront of anti-Israel protests has vowed to “shut down DC” when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrives to speak before Congress. Even worse, anti-Israel Democrats plan to disrupt the speech in an unprecedented show of hostility toward the democratically-elected leader of one of America’s closest allies.

Breitbart Netanyahu will be speaking before a joint meeting of Congress on July 24. The People’s Forum wrote in a post on X on Wednesday that the group would be shutting down Washington, DC, when Netanyahu arrives and would “issue a notice of a citizen’s arrest.”
Netanyahu was invited by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) to “address a Joint Meeting of Congress.”
“Last year, Congress was proud to host Israeli President Isaac Herzog in Washington to celebrate 75 years of friendship and partnership between our two democracies,” the joint letter signed by Johnson, McConnell, Schumer, and Jeffries began. “Less than three months later, the horrific attacks of October 7th shocked the world and forced your nation into a fight for its very existence. We join the State of Israel in your struggle against terror, especially as Hamas continues to hold American and Israeli citizens captive and its leaders jeopardize regional stability.”
The letter continued: “For this reason, on behalf of the bipartisan leadership of the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate, we would like to invite you to address a Joint Meeting of Congress.”
In response, Far Left, Self-hating Jewish Democrat ‘Socialist’ Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) stated that he would “not attend” Netanyahu’s speech and labeled him a “war criminal.”
But what about “demukracy?? So sencering All that dont Aline with demoncrats is okay, just like what they did to Trump? We protect Democracy and Freedom of speach, just not for those you dont agree with us.
Why cant people see how evil they Are, they just want power, dont give a f… About the people.
When he comes he will have his spurs on and history as his cannons he is a War Chief .
He comes not to apologize but to chastise the leaders of a nation and make clearly understood the consequence’s of a broken Promise .
He best leave as he came we who stand with him are watching !
Maybe he should just do a speech for Congress on zoom.
Never thought I would see some postings about elected turd squirts disrespecting a dignitary from a country they disapprove of. Did not think anything like that would happen in my lifetime. damm ,.maybe time to make the tree of liberty bleed. bni hope this doesnt happen
Of course it will happen. The Biden Regime supports these thugs.
I have read that the far left and Muslim rioters intend to shut the city of Washington, D.C. down and surround the capital with numbers not seen before. With the numbers that I have heard, I hope that the National Guard is in full force and that they take no attacks and react in kind and throw the seditionists into prison and treated with the same kindness as those who supported President Trump. We are truly living in extremely dangerous times.
Don’t hold your breath. They didn’t do anything to the same mob at the White House. Not even one arrest.
