Protestors take aim at Netanyahu and his US political hosts

It’s only noon in Washington DC, but thousands of pro-Palestinian and antiwar activists from all over the US are already fanned out across the city to raise their ire against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the US officials he is meeting. 

"Netanyahu and the members of Congress he will be addressing are partners in crime," Hatem Abu Dayyeh, national coordinator for the US Palestinian Community Network, said in a statement shared with Middle East Eye.

"We are gathering to express our outrage not only with Netanyahu but also with the US political elite who are indispensable to Israel's ability to massacre Palestinians."
