They don’t mind jihadis having weapons. They just don’t want Jews fighting back.
“Protesters storm port to block military supplies for Israel,” by Jon Levine, New York Post, November 4, 2023:
More than 100 protesters descended on the Port of Oakland in an attempt to stop a cargo ship which they said was carrying weapons bound for Israel.
The demonstration, organized by the Arab Resource and Organizing Center, went down Friday at the California port
“We’re sending the alarm that the U.S. government is, in fact, sending these weapons to Israel,” AROC press coordinator Wassim Hage told SFGate. “We want people to be aware that the U.S. is going to continue to use our ports to facilitate the genocide of Palestinian people in Gaza.”
Protests have repeatedly erupted in America and around the world since Israel launched its effort to eliminate Hamas — following the terror group’s harrowing Oct. 7 surprise attack on civilians, during which it wiped out families, killed children in their beds and murdered babies. More than 1,400 Israelis were killed in the attack.
Pro-Hamas protesters briefly prevented a ship from leaving the port of Oakland.
Hamas has repeatedly vowed to destroy Israel and kill all of its citizens.
It’s unclear if the ship was actually carrying weapons or even headed for Israel. Several demonstrators attempted to “occupy the ship,” AROC’s executive director, Lara Kiswani told the paper.

The whole misconception of Hamas as being the victim here is nonsense. Hamas uses the people in their homes, hospitals, mosques where ever they can hide weapons and bombs. The discovery of such has been noted and made public. Why people support Hamas is stupid, for this group does not care about life in general just their cause to wipe Israel and the Jewish people out of existence along with Christians so remember this phase all your supporters of Hamas ” One World Caliphate” no other religions or people except those that follow Islam.

“no other religions or people except those that follow Islam
Gotta wonder how many politicians and journalists actually know that.

According to the feature article:
“Pro-Hamas protesters briefly prevented a ship from leaving the port of Oakland.”
I thought that there were laws against preventing a US military operation by preventing the movement of a US Naval ship.
Any attorneys care to weigh in?
