WASHINGTON, DC: Far-right activist Laura Loomer has criticized the “No Kings” demonstrators, accusing them of hypocrisy for waving the flag of Palestine while protesting against President Donald Trump on Saturday, October 18.

She highlighted the contribution of the Republican leader in mediating the peace deal between Israel and Hamas, ending the two years of conflict in Gaza, and condemned the irony of the act.

Laura Lommer says 'No King' demonstrators should be thanking Trump



 

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Laura Loomer wrote, “No Kings protestors are waving the Palestinian flag today in DC as they protest Trump, further proving their lack of principle.

"President Trump just ended the war between HAMAS and Israel, so why are they still protesting for 'Palestine'? Paid puppets. They should be thanking Trump, not protesting him," she added. 

Organisations involved in the global intifada reportedly joined 'No Kings' protests



 

The organisations involved in the global intifada, which calls for aggressive resistance against Israel, have joined the protests on Saturday in cities like New York and Washington, despite the successful peace deal between Israel and Hamas. 

According to a Fox News report, groups like "UAW Labor for Palestine" and "NYC Labor for Palestine" called on supporters to gather in Manhattan and join the protest against the Trump administration. 

According to the experts, the alignment underscores a strategic pivot in the global intifada’s next phase, carrying the anti-Israel message into any high-energy civic protest, even after Hamas agreed to a ceasefire by linking "Free Palestine" to domestic fights like ICE, police, and "fascism."

On October 8, Donald Trump said that Israel and Hamas have “signed off on the first phase” of a deal to end the war in Gaza, a significant diplomatic accomplishment that, if it holds, would halt two years of bloodshed and a spiraling humanitarian catastrophe.

Taking to his social media platform Truth Social, the POTUS announced the deal, outlining an agreement that would include the release of all the hostages seized by Hamas in its October 7, 2023, attack on Israel and would lead to a broader peace between Palestinians and the Jewish state.



 

“This means that ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace. All Parties will be treated fairly!” Trump wrote.

“This is a GREAT Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, who worked with us to make this Historic and Unprecedented Event happen. BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS!” he added.
