[VIDEO] Palestinian Flags Fly Over Historic D.C. Landmark as American Flags Burn

My colleague Athena Thorne wrote earlier today about the disgusting anti-Israel protests going on in D.C. today in response to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's address to Congress. The violence and vandalism continue to escalate.

After the speech, Hamas supporters tore down American flags at Union Station in Washington, D.C., and raised Palestinian flags in their place. Then, they burned the American flags.

They’ve taken down all three American flags outside Union Station and replaced them with the Palestinian one.

A paper mache Netanyahu has been thrown into the campfire as well.

I just took this picture from my Senate office.

Less than a mile from the U.S. Capitol, pro-Hamas protestors have taken down and burned AMERICAN FLAGS at Union Station to fly Palestinian flags.

Absolutely SHAMEFUL. pic.twitter.com/jwfZHlb9xZ

Police eventually showed up and are in the process of arresting some of the protesters.

Why did they wait so long? Why didn't they prevent the pro-terrorism rioters from tearing down our beautiful American flags, the symbol of hope and freedom for so many? 

This is a developing story.
