WASHINGTON (TND) — Multiple pro-Palestine protesters on Thursday crashed a book tour event thrown by Jewish CNN anchor Dana Bashin Washington, D.C.

Bash was at Politics and Prose Bookstore in Washington, D.C., to promote her new book “America’s Deadliest Election: The Cautionary Tale of the Most Violent Election in American History.” Video shared by her co-anchor, Jake Tapper, shows a masked protester berating Bash over her coverage of the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

“You belong behind bars,” the demonstrator called. “We know who you are, we know what you’re saying. It’s not a war, it’s never been a war, it is ethnic cleansing.”

The protester continued shouting despite event organizers asking them to calm down.

After the first protester left the building, another one took their place, again screaming at Bash over her coverage of the war.

You call yourself a good journalist?” the second protester called. “Report the truth. But instead you want millions from Zionists, you want millions from AIPAC.”

    The “take off your mask” remark is truly some alt-right, fascist shit to say. Keep it up, Dana Fash!

    “There is nothing about her coverage of the Israel-Hamas war that is different from most other news coverage

    That’s the problem Jake.

      The media should be held legally and morally responsible for their participation in the “war” genocide.
