Former President Joe Biden was swarmed by anti-Israel agitators in Dublin on Tuesday, and at least one object was thrown at him as he left Trinity College, Fox News Digital reports. An umbrella held next to Biden blocked it. Irish police arrested two people at the scene.
Biden, 83, and former first lady Jill Biden made a surprise visit to the college, where their son Hunter accepted a medal. A crowd gathered outside during the event.
As Biden came out, protesters chanted "Blood, blood, blood on your hands!" and called him a "war criminal." Officers escorted him into a waiting car, and the motorcade drove off. The crowd then turned on the police, chanting "Shame on you!"
Biden has been a target of the anti-Israel movement for years. Activists call him "Genocide Joe" over U.S. military aid to Israel during the war against Hamas.
