Bloody Biden Mask Held by Protester in Hamas Gear at D.C. Rally Against Israel

Over the weekend, a protester wearing a Hamas headband held up a bloody mask depicting President Joe Biden at an anti-Israel rally in front of the White House. This alarming scene occurred amidst a large demonstration that saw thousands of anti-Israel protesters flood Washington, D.C., calling for the U.S. to cut off aid to Israel and end its conflict with Hamas.

Protesters, many waving Palestinian flags and donning Hamas emblems, denounced Biden as a liar and confronted law enforcement around the heavily secured White House area. The significant police presence was in anticipation of the pro-Palestinian and pro-Hamas demonstration.

• Protesters displayed signs such as “Biden’s red line was a lie,” referencing the president's stance on Israel's actions in Rafah.

• Some formed a line in front of the White House, calling it “the people’s red line.”

• The chaotic protest highlighted deepening rifts within the Democratic Party, with progressives urging Biden to adopt a tougher stance against Israel.

While the protest raged on, President Biden was in France, attending a state dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron, according to The New York Times.

This demonstration underscores the growing internal conflicts among Democrats, with progressives like Nas Issa, spokeswoman for the Palestinian Youth Movement, openly criticizing Biden. Issa's organization was one of the groups organizing the protest. She stated, “There is no world in which I can confidently vote for Biden,” unless he holds Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government accountable.

The backdrop to these events is Israel's war against Hamas, declared after an invasion by hundreds of terrorists on October 7, resulting in approximately 1,200 deaths and numerous captives. Israeli officials have vowed to dismantle Hamas, which has controlled Gaza for nearly two decades, amassing a formidable force and creating an extensive tunnel network throughout the Gaza Strip.
