Pro-Palestinian Rioters Throwing Bottles and Rocks Battle With Capitol Police as Staff Moved to Safe Locations in the White House

 

One of the traits that makes the U.S. unique
Why in addition economic prosperity migrants entry here seek
In our Bill of Rights to our Constitution we have freedom of speech
Coupled with the rights to assemble in peaceful protest to our leaders beseech
The Hamas Israeli War which started with Hamas’ October 7 bloody invasion from the Gaza Strip
Killing 120 men women and children and taking 140 hostages on a Gaza one way trip
Israel declared war that will end when the Hamas returns the hostages and its ability to wage war on Israeli civilians ceases
Sadly more like than not the Gazan civilian casualties will steadily increase
Gaza is a very densely populated city for a battleground
Honeycombed with tunnels under residences, schools and hospital grounds
No matter how hard the IDF to minimize civilian casualties tried
Gazans by the thousands have been wounded or died
Large areas of its cities and towns reduced to rubble
With Iran’s proxies, Hezbollah and Houthis beating war drums Israel faces an existential survival struggle
Worse the unavoidable deaths of Gazans have germinated to the antisemitism seeds
Sprouting protests and calls of genocide on college campuses and violence as calls for a cease fire Israel will not heed
Almost a déjà vu growing each day like the protests over the Vietnam War
Antisemitic attacks on Jewish students and places of worship beginning to soar
Mobs of angry protestors fight with Capitol police and hurling bottles and rocks
White House staff forced to moved as the idea of peaceful protests clearly mocked
As usual Biden beset also by the war in Ukraine and the growing threats to Taiwan invade
Seems once again to be lost at sea, displaying frailty and weakness for our foes and allies to see.
