Pro-Palestine protesters were kicked out of a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing after screaming and yelling in protest against the war in Gaza.
Strategic Communications Director Sophie Louise Delquie posted part of the disruption on X.
The footage reveals Sen. James Risch (R-ID) sitting quietly as the protestors scream, and waiting patiently for officers to remove them. (Trending: US Forces Attacked By Suicide Drones)

“Sen. Risch handled like a champ,” Delquie said.
“Pro-Ceasefire demonstrators interrupt the Senate Foreign Relations Committee nomination hearing for Jack Lew as Ambassador to #Israel,” wrote foreign policy correspondent Ellie Sennett.
“The expedited hearing occurs just a day after Israel faced accusations of bombing a #hospital in #Gaza, killing 500+ people,” she went on.

A male protester was seen yelling in the first clip, saying, “Families are dying! Our families are dying! We need a cease-fire now! We need a cease-fire now! Cease-fire now! Cease-fire now!”
“Eight hundred international human rights lawyers called our state to intervene to stop this genocide in Gaza! Palestine — Palestinians need freedom!” a female protestor screeched. (Trending: Devastating New Poll For Joe Biden)
“Stop sending aid to Israel! Stop the Israeli genocide of Palestinians!” a third person screamed.
“This is how mass atrocities happen,” one said to the officers who removed her.

“When you’re reading history books and ask ‘Why? How did people not speak up?’ This is how,” she went on.
“Israel has killed about 1,500 kids in 10 days,” she claimed, going on to reference the hospital bombing in Gaza.
“Fifteen hundred children with their heads blown off! Did you see the father picking up the body parts of his kids yesterday? Because they were in a hospital when Israel bombed them? And our tax dollars are funding it!”
Israeli sources recently revealed evidence that included audio proof of Hamas terrorists seemingly acknowledging that it was not actually Israeli forces who caused the explosion.
