Top Democrats denounced a pro-Palestinian protest around Washington’s Union Station that resulted in several arrests, burnt flags, and an outpouring of rage at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visiting Congress.

On Wednesday, pro-Palestinian protests broke out across the capital in response to Netanyahu’s speech to Congress. The most visible of these occurred around Union Station, culminating in the tearing down of three American flags and the burning of at least one. The general pandemonium was met with bipartisan condemnation, with Democratic leaders joining on Thursday.
