15th August 2024
Anti-Israel, pro-Palestine protesters arrived at Columbus Circle in front of the historic train station after first marching to the nearby U.S. Capitol. They were supposed to demonstrate peacefully and then disperse.
They didn’t do that.
In defiance of a permit granted to the ANSWER Coalition and obtained by the Washington Examiner, the protesters defaced the Columbus Fountain and other property and burned American flags shortly after arriving at Columbus Circle about 2:30 p.m. July 24.
