Philadelphia's Amtrak train station was overrun by hundreds protesters calling for a ceasefire between Israel and Gaza on Thursday evening - as war continues to rumble on in the Middle East.
Police initially set up barricades near 30th Street Station in anticipation of the protesters - who ended up storming inside and initiating their own sit-in after blocking the entrance on the sidewalk.
Hundreds of demonstrators flooded inside the Amtrak station - which is Philadelphia's largest - stopping commuters in their tracks, just before 7.30pm.

The ceasefire comes when Hamas ceases fire permanently. Philly commuters can’t change the behavior of Hamas

What was genocide? The Holocaust or the carpet bombing of Germany? Have some sense of what is cause and what is effect. What is right and what is wrong.

Phillie protesters, forget about it. There will be no cease-fire. It will take time to finish eradicating hamas.

They started it. They recently said they would never stop. So what did they expect? They asked for it and they got it.

Sorry, am I missing a correlation between travelers in a Philadelphia train station and Netanyahu’s mission to eradicate Hamas? No one’s listening to Biden on the subject, nor should they. These protesters need to relocate to Gaza and shut things down there. Gays should not go. They will be shot on sight.

It's really creepy how these mobs can be assembled and directed so quickly and effectively, don't you think? Then they attack some central facility where an entire city is brought to a stop.
THIS people, is Islam in action. The sooner we realize Islam is not our friend, and in fact IS our enemy, the longer we MIGHT survive.
Beware....

There are THOUSANDS of these sorosite Muslim terrorists doing the same thing in downtown Mogadapolis. But, we have 80,000 Somalis living two miles from there. Same mass produced "spontaneous protest signs " I'm sure..

Clearly Israel is making great progress, if there is such an intense effort to make them stop.

Bullies always ask you to stop hitting on them, when they start to lose. It's time for the Israelis to double down and finish the job.

I see the correlation with trains and the holocaust but I doubt the hundred or so protesters know enough to understand.

Same cities, same problems, just a different day. The narrative changes but it's always the same hysterical lunatics in the democratic run insane asylums. These people are void of any morals, values or the ability to process one logical thought. Pathetic.

"Idiots" aren't just on the left. Non-left "idiots" basically snoozed, when they knew beyond any doubt that the public teachers unions, dominated by far left ideologues, were indoctrinating their children to carry on their Marxist world-view, which is stock-in-trade of the democrat party that they overwhelmingly support.

These protesters should at least TRY to be honest. What they actually want is a one-sided ceasefire where Israel puts down its weapons but Hamas is allowed as much time and space as possible to murder more children. And as for
Dani Noble of Jewish Voice for Peace she is certainly a "useful idiot" ~ as blind as blind can be. What is with these clueless Jewish virtue signalers?? May the LORD remove the scales from their eyes.

What do Terrorists do when they are Losing? Simple, "I want to Negotiate"...or "Can't we have a Ceasefire"?
It's so predictable it's sickening!

When is our clueless government going to figure out that these disruptive demonstrations have nothing to do with Palistinians but everything to do with paid groups of useful idiots being used to harass and damage the country? George Soros is only one of many angry old rich men attempting to buy what they could not accomplish on their own through moral and honest means.

Hamas-cide is the goal. A laudable one, too.

Are the members of the Jewish Voice for Peace idiots? Sure, call for a cease fire so the Palestinians in Israel can keep fighting and kill the Israelis. Those protesting Jews in Philadelphia do understand that the Palestinians in Israel would kill them faster than they can say Shalom. I will never understand the minds of liberal American Jews. Do they really have a death wish protesting against their best interests.

Hamas should have held their OWN cease-fire, BEFORE they attacked and murdered all those Israeli civilians.
But no, these murderers decided they had to FAFO.
Hamas did the first part,
Now they're doing the second part, finding out.
