Far-left, anti-Israel activists target Jewish CNN anchor at DC event
Jacob Magid is The Times of Israel's US bureau chief
Several anti-Israel protesters are filmed disrupting an event featuring Jewish CNN anchor Dana Bash at a bookstore in Washington.
As they heckled Bash and accused her of being “complicit in genocide,” one of the people in the audience can be heard telling the protesters to take their masks off.
Anti-Israel protesters commonly wear face masks while demonstrating to shield their identities, ostensibly trying to lower the social risk of their disruptive conduct.
