Biden, interrupted by protester calling for cease-fire, backs pause
At a campaign event in Minnesota today, Biden was interrupted by a protester calling for a cease-fire in Gaza.
Just as Biden was explaining how the deadly rally by white supremacists and neo-Nazis in Charlottesville, Virginia, inspired him to run for office again, he was interrupted.
“Mr. President, you care about Jewish people. As a rabbi, I need you to call for a cease-fire right now,” said a woman who later identified herself to NBC News as Rabbi Jessica Rosenberg. Rosenberg is part of the activist group Jewish Voice for Peace.
The crowd tried to drown her out, but Biden addressed Rosenberg: “I think we need a pause.”
