This past Saturday, various pro-Palestinian and anti-war groups marched in Washington D.C. in protest of Israel's attack on Hamas in Gaza.

Among the participants were ANSWER Coalition, American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), American Muslim Alliance (AMA), Al-Awda: Palestine Right to Return Coalition, Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), Muslim Legal Fund of America, MAS Immigrant Justice Center, and Code Pink.

On the corner of 16th and H streets, a U.S. Marine and Iraq War veteran Manny Vega stood counter-protesting by holding U.S. and Israeli flags. A single Arab protester came up, and he and Vega started having a conversation on the issue.

The conversation was peaceful until the anti-war mob started crowding around Vega. Then they started getting in Vega's face and shoving, kicking, and spitting on him.

A police officer rode up on a motorcycle and the mob dispersed. While police were taking statements, the pro-Palestinian mob were accusing Vega of instigating the violence with his very presence, and they were calling him a Nazi and a baby killer.

Here's a pro-tip for anti-war demonstrators: When you have your protests, it's not a good idea to physically attack people who disagree with you. They have every right under the Constitution to be there, just as you do. Besides, it's not very peaceful, which is the point of your march, right?

That's what Happens when people raise there voices and not raising their points in an argument. And that's terrible for those Protesters

Screw all the establishment groups like CAIR and the rest of them, but the "Israel First" BS is nothing but the other side of the BS coin our politicians play to incite division of the masses.

Neither side could really care less about the suffering of the civilian masses as long as the media promotes their agenda
