The conflict in Gaza is ongoing, and so are the erratic actions of the anti-Israel Left. In San Francisco, a group of over 100 activists stormed the Israeli Consulate, displaying banners that read “Zionism Kills” and “Committing a genocide makes Jews less safe; Not in my name!” The protesters also chanted “Long live the intifada!” inside the building. The San Francisco police stated that they are handling the protest and potential trespassers without any arrests at the moment.
The Consulate General of Israel to the Pacific Northwest confirmed that the protest was taking place at their location in the city’s Financial District, but representatives were not immediately available for comment. The slogans and actions displayed during the protest have been criticized for promoting violence and further escalating the tensions in the region.

The conservative perspective views the actions of the activists as highly concerning, as they openly display anti-Zionist sentiments and express support for violent movements. Such rhetoric and behavior only serve to perpetuate the ongoing conflict and create division rather than fostering peaceful dialogue and understanding. It is important for individuals to engage in constructive and respectful discourse to work towards a peaceful resolution in the region.
