Black Lives Matter protesters marching through Washington, DC, on Wednesday were caught on video singing, “Israel, we know you, you kill children too.”
What are the details?
Nic Rowan, a reporter for The Washington Examiner, posted the video online with the caption: “It was only a matter of time before the DC protests became anti-Semitic.”

Rowan noted that the crowd “immediately switched to the more standard ‘Black Lives Matter’ chant after the ‘Israel kills children.’

The BLM protesters’ anti-Israeli chant comes days after Black Lives Matter UK sparked outrage by publicly declaring on Twitter: “As Israel progresses with the annexation of the West Bank, and dominant British policy is muzzled by law to criticize Zionism, and Israeli settlers persecute our Palestinian comrades in a loud and clear voice. FREE PALESTINE. ”

Fox News reported that tweets by the British BLM group have caused organizations in Britain to distance themselves from the movement. The outlet noted that “the radical inclination of the Black Lives Matter movement is not a secret, and the leading US organization boasts of its desire to ‘disrupt the structure of the nuclear family prescribed by the West’ and promote the outlay of the police.”
BLM has gained national influence in the wake of George Floyd’s death in police custody, organizing protests across the United States against police brutality that have continued for weeks. Several US corporations have publicly declared their support for the movement, which one of the BLM founders boasts of was created by “trained Marxists.”
In reaction to the video of BLM protesters shouting, “Israel, we know you, you kill children too,” Benny Johnson of Turning Point USA tweeted, “I wonder if all the Republican senators (@MittRomney & @SenatorBraun) and the Corporations that support and endorse BLM also supports the idea that Israel ‘murders children.’ “
