Thousands of protesters thronged the streets of Washington, D.C. on Saturday to express their anger at President Biden for supporting Israel.
“Joseph Robinette Biden Jr., we charge you with genocide. We charge you with genocide. We charge you with genocide,” yelled Omar Suleiman of the Yaqeen Institute from the podium, leading the crowd to repeat after him in a chant.
A handful of Muslim Brotherhood affiliates including, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), and the Islamic Circle of North American (ICNA) organized the Saturday rally and march with over three hundred endorsing organizations.
The crowd expressed solidarity with Yemen’s Houthis by flying the Yemini flag. “Allahu Akbar, Death to America, Death to Israel, Curse Upon the Jews, Victory to Islam,” is the Houthis’ slogan. Rally speakers lauded South Africa, and attendees flew flags in support of South Africa’s case against Israel in The Hague.
