Muslim Network TV news:
President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address faced a delay as his motorcade was obstructed by pro-Palestine demonstrators en route to the Capitol yesterday.
Hundreds of activists advocating for an arms embargo on Israel halted the president’s entourage, expressing their discontent with U.S. policies.
Protesters condemned the allocation of taxpayer funds toward arming Israel and destroying Palestinians.
Among the voices of dissent was Brittany DeBarros from About Face: Veterans Against the War, who emphasized the need for justice for the Palestinian people.
Biden’s speech, which was set to commence at 9 p.m. Eastern Time, was delayed by about 25 minutes due to the disruption caused by the protest.
