'Massive protest' planned in Washington during ICC-wanted Netanyahu-Trump meeting
Pro-Palestinian groups, including Jews, have planned a protest rally in Washington against Israeli crimes in the war-torn Gaza Strip as ICC-wanted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to meet with US President Donald Trump.
The demonstrators, including American anti-Zionist Orthodox Jews, are organizing a protest outside the White House against Netanyahu’s visit to the United States during his meeting with President Donald Trump.
“American Orthodox Jews are preparing for a massive protest outside the White House in Washington, DC, on Tuesday,” Voice of Rabbis said on X.
“There will be a mass protest against the Zionist heretic criminal Netanyahu, who will meet with President Trump at the White House,” he stressed.

Demonstrators will also gather outside Blair House, the President’s Guest House, calling for the arrest of Netanyahu, who is facing an International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in the besieged Gaza Strip.
“This man should not be welcomed — he should be arrested. Protestors will be outside the Blair House 24/7 while he's staying there, and we're in the Senate today keeping an eye out for him,” said the anti-war group CodePink in a statement.
This is not Netanyahu's first visit to the US during Israel's genocidal war in Gaza, but it is his first trip to Washington since Trump began his second term in office.
Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), for its part, has already condemned the visit, stressing that the meeting underscores the US complicity in Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
“This meeting legitimizes a leader with an active international arrest warrant for war crimes and underscores the United States’ complicity in Israel’s ongoing genocide and military occupation against the Palestinian people,” it emphasized in a press release on Monday.
The Israeli regime with the support of the US killed nearly 62,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children during over 15 months of its genocidal war in Gaza. Also more than 900 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank have been killed by Israeli forces and settlers since October 2023.
