Extremist anti- Israel groups planning on protesting AIPAC again

A consortium of  extremist anti-Israel groups, including Code Pink,  End The Occupation, Jewish Voice for Peace,  Students for Justice in Palestine East  and If Americans Knew have begun plans to disrupt the Washington AIPAC Policy Conference, in an effort to  "Shut Down AIPAC"



With nearly 14,000 expected in DC  to help nuture a strong relationship between Israel and America, the assorted fringe groups are going to have a rather difficult time.

Maybe their friends from Hezbollah will join them again this year.

 

Expect the usual shrill disruptions, inane signage and mindless blather that is characteristic of a Code Pink event.

As of now, their agenda includes.

February 28-March 3, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu will be in DC to address AIPAC, join CODEPINK and Humanity for Palestine for actions to #ShutDownAIPAC!
