Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) criticized anti-Israel protesters who targeted a Jewish-owned restaurant in Philadelphia, calling their actions “pathetic and rank antisemitism.”
Fetterman has been vocal in his support of Israel since the October 7th massacre and has called for the release of hostages taken by Hamas.
“Protestors in Philadelphia stand outside of a Jewish & Israeli owned falafel restaurant,” Jordan Van Glish posted. (Trending: Olympic Gold Medalist Sentenced For Jan 6)

“‘Goldie, Goldie you can’t hide, we charge you with genocide.’”
“They could be protesting Hamas,” Fetterman said.
“They could be protesting Hamas’ systematic rape of Israeli women and girls or demanding the remaining hostages be immediately released. Instead, they targeted a Jewish restaurant.”

Instead, they targeted a Jewish restaurant. It's pathetic and rank antisemitism. https://t.co/zDZQwy84g5

“In my front office I have displayed the posters of the innocent Israelis kidnapped by Hamas. They will stay up until every single person is safely returned home,” he said at a separate time.
However, he has faced resistance from within his own party, with Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) warning about losing support from the hard left if Democrats continue to support Israel and calling for “balance” in condemning Hamas.
